The explosion of the amount of data stored in cloud systems calls for more efficient paradigms for redundancy. While replication is widely used to ensure data availability, erasure correcting codes provide a much better trade-off between storage and availability. Regenerating codes are good candidates for they also offer low repair costs in term of network bandwidth. While they have been proven...

Peer-to-peer distributed storage systems provide reliable access to data through redundancy spread over nodes across the Internet. A key goal is to minimize the amount of bandwidth used to maintain that redundancy. Storing a file using an erasure code, in fragments spread across nodes, promises to require less redundancy and hence less maintenance bandwidth than simple replication to provide th...

Cloud storage systems to protect data from corruptions, redundant data to tolerate failures of storage and lost data should be repaired when storage fails. Regenerating codes provide fault tolerance by striping data across multiple servers, while using less repair traffic than traditional erasure codes during failure recovery. In previous research implemented practical Data Integrity Protection...

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>Traditional regenerating codes are efficient tools to optimize both storage and repair bandwidth in storing data across a distributed system, particularly comparison erasure replication. In traditional codes, the collection of any <inline-formula><tex-math id="M1">\begin{document}$ k $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula> nodes can...

In a distributed storage network, reliability and bandwidth optimization can be provided by regenerating codes. Recently table based regenerating codes viz. DRESS (Distributed Replication-based Exact Simple Storage) codes has been proposed which also optimizes the disk I/O. Dress codes consists of an outer MDS code with an inner fractional repetition (FR) code with replication degree ρ. Several...
