A centralized server, such as in a cloud environment, is provided generally connected to a plurality of clients that independently maintain data that is also maintained in the centralized server. The centralized server possessing an authoritative Bloom filter series comprising at least a plurality of Bloom filters each with successive Bloom filter entries that periodically provide and update a copy of the authoritative Bloom filter series at each of the clients. Each client checks to see if a data file is present locally by searching for a corresponding Bloom filter entry in the copy of the Bloom filter series before seeking the data file in the centralized server.
