Erasure coded storage schemes offer a promising future for cloud storage. Highlights of
erasure coded storage systems are that these offer the same level of fault tolerance as that …

For over a decade, erasure codes have become an integral part of large-scale data storage
solutions and data-centers. However, in commercial systems, they are, so far, used …

Erasure Code (EC) is being tipped to be the next best alternative to Replication for providing
redundancy for Cloud Storage. Already major players like Microsoft and Facebook are …

Distributed storage systems usually adopt erasure coding to achieve better tradeoff between
the space efficiency and the data reliability. In-place updates are often used to overwrite the …

Although cloud systems provide a reliable and flexible storage solution, the use of a single
cloud service constitutes a single point of failure, which can compromise data availability …

The storage system often uses erasure coding to provide the necessary fault tolerance. The
erasure-coded update involves data transmission and data calculation of multiple nodes …

Erasure codes are nowadays used extensively in distributed storage systems that handle
big data, since they offer significant fault tolerance with low storage overhead. Even though …

In this paper, we consider the update bandwidth in distributed storage systems (DSSs). The
update bandwidth, which measures the transmission efficiency of the update process in …

In this paper we study the problem of consistency in distributed storage systems relying on
erasure coding for storage efficient fault-tolerance. We propose QLOC-a flexible framework …

In this work, we study the problem of storing reliably an archive of versioned data.
Specifically, we focus on systems where the differences (deltas) between subsequent …
