Abstract
Erasure codes are being extensively deployed in practical storage systems to prevent data loss with low redundancy. However, these codes require excessive disk I/Os and network traffic for recovering unavailable data. Among all erasure codes, Minimum Storage Regenerating (MSR) codes can achieve optimal repair bandwidth under the minimum storage during recovery, but some open issues remain to be addressed before applying them in real systems. Facing with the huge burden during recovery, erasure-coded storage systems need to be developed with high repair efficiency. Aiming at this goal, a new class of coding scheme is introduced—Hybrid Regenerating Codes (Hybrid-RC). The codes utilize the superiority of MSR codes to compute a subset of data blocks while some other parity blocks are used for reliability maintenance. As a result, our design is near-optimal with respect to storage and network traffic and shows great improvements in recovery performance.
