# Canonicalization

OCI Images [are](descriptor.md) [content-addressable](image-layout.md).
All of the constituent components of the OCI Image specification are content-addressable; for more background on this, see the [descriptor](descriptor.md) documentation.
One benefit of content-addressable storage is easy deduplication.
Many images might depend on a particular [layer](layer.md), but there will only be one blob in the [store](image-layout.md).
With a different serialization, that same semantic layer would have a different hash, and if both versions of the layer are referenced there will be two blobs with the same semantic content.
