A method begins by a dispersed storage (DS) processing module obtaining a plurality of data objects for storage in a dispersed storage network (DSN) and determining one or more common data object aspects of a data object of the plurality of data objects. The method continues with the DS processing module disperse storage error encoding at least a portion of the data object to produce a set of encoded data slices and generating a set of DSN addresses for the set of encoded data slices, wherein each of the set of DSN addresses includes a field referencing the one or more common data object aspects. The method continues with the DS processing module outputting the set of encoded data slices for storage in the DSN based on the set of DSN addresses.
