A method for storing data from a data source in a storage device of a data repository by reading all source allocation units, restructuring the data into data units having a size corresponding to the repository allocation units, and generating a hash value for the data of each data unit read from the data source. For each data unit, a data table is searched for a table entry having a matching hash value wherein each table entry contains the hash value of a data unit stored in a repository allocation unit and a repository allocation unit pointer to the corresponding repository allocation unit. When the hash value of a data unit does not match any hash value of any table entry in the data table, the data of the data unit is written into a newly allocated repository allocation unit a new table entry is written to the data table. When the hash value of a data unit matches the hash value of a data entry in the data table, the data of the corresponding repository allocation unit and is compared with the data of the data unit. If the data of the data unit matches the repository allocation unit, the data unit is discarded. If the data of the data unit does not match the corresponding repository allocation unit, the data unit is written into a newly allocated repository allocation unit and a new table entry is inserted into the data table.

The present invention provides a unique system and method that can employ machine learning techniques to automatically fill one or more fields across a diverse array of web forms. In particular, one or more instrumented tools can collect input or entries of form fields. Machine learning can be used to learn what data corresponds to which fields or types of fields. The input can be sent to a central repository where other databases can be aggregated as well. This input can be provided to a machine learning system to learn how to predict the desired outputs. Alternatively or in addition, learning can be performed in part by observing entries and then adapting the autofill component accordingly. Furthermore, a number of features of database fields as well as constraints can be employed to facilitate assignments of database entries to form values—particularly when the web form has never been seen before by the autofill system.
