Maximally Recoverable Codes for Grid-like Topologies
[article]
2016
arXiv
pre-print
The explosion in the volumes of data being stored online has resulted in distributed storage systems transitioning to erasure coding based schemes. Yet, the codes being deployed in practice are fairly short. In this work, we address what we view as the main coding theoretic barrier to deploying longer codes in storage: at large lengths, failures are not independent and correlated failures are inevitable. This motivates designing codes that allow quick data recovery even after large correlated
