Distributed storage systems for large clusters typically use replication to provide reliability. Recently, erasure codes have been used to reduce the large storage overhead of three-replicated systems. Reed-Solomon codes are the standard design choic
e and their high repair cost is often considered an unavoidable price to pay for high storage efficiency and high reliability. This paper shows how to overcome this limitation. We present a novel family of erasure codes that are efficiently repairable and offer higher reliability compared to Reed-Solomon codes. We show analytically that our codes are optimal on a recently identified tradeoff between locality and minimum distance. We implement our new codes in Hadoop HDFS and compare to a currently deployed HDFS module that uses Reed-Solomon codes. Our modified HDFS implementation shows a reduction of approximately 2x on the repair disk I/O and repair network traffic. The disadvantage of the new coding scheme is that it requires 14% more storage compared to Reed-Solomon codes, an overhead shown to be information theoretically optimal to obtain locality. Because the new codes repair failures faster, this provides higher reliability, which is orders of magnitude higher compared to replication.

To achieve reliability in distributed storage systems, data has usually been replicated across different nodes. However the increasing volume of data to be stored has motivated the introduction of erasure codes, a storage efficient alternative to rep
lication, particularly suited for archival in data centers, where old datasets (rarely accessed) can be erasure encoded, while replicas are maintained only for the latest data. Many recent works consider the design of new storage-centric erasure codes for improved repairability. In contrast, this paper addresses the migration from replication to encoding: traditionally erasure coding is an atomic operation in that a single node with the whole object encodes and uploads all the encoded pieces. Although large datasets can be concurrently archived by distributing individual object encodings among different nodes, the network and computing capacity of individual nodes constrain the archival process due to such atomicity. We propose a new pipelined coding strategy that distributes the network and computing load of single-object encodings among different nodes, which also speeds up multiple object archival. We further present RapidRAID codes, an explicit family of pipelined erasure codes which provides fast archival without compromising either data reliability or storage overheads. Finally, we provide a real implementation of RapidRAID codes and benchmark its performance using both a cluster of 50 nodes and a set of Amazon EC2 instances. Experiments show that RapidRAID codes reduce a single objects coding time by up to 90%, while when multiple objects are encoded concurrently, the reduction is up to 20%.
A Maximum Distance Separable code over an alphabet $F$ is defined via an encoding function $C:F^k rightarrow F^n$ that allows to retrieve a message $m in F^k$ from the codeword $C(m)$ even after erasing any $n-k$ of its symbols. The minimum possible
alphabet size of general (non-linear) MDS codes for given parameters $n$ and $k$ is unknown and forms one of the central open problems in coding theory. The paper initiates the study of the alphabet size of codes in a generalized setting where the coding scheme is required to handle a pre-specified subset of all possible erasure patterns, naturally represented by an $n$-vertex $k$-uniform hypergraph. We relate the minimum possible alphabet size of such codes to the strong chromatic number of the hypergraph and analyze the tightness of the obtained bounds for both the linear and non-linear settings. We further consider variations of the problem which allow a small probability of decoding error.
In this paper we discuss a novel data compression technique for binary symmetric sources based on the cavity method over a Galois Field of order q (GF(q)). We present a scheme of low complexity and near optimal empirical performance. The compression
step is based on a reduction of sparse low density parity check codes over GF(q) and is done through the so called reinforced belief-propagation equations. These reduced codes appear to have a non-trivial geometrical modification of the space of codewords which makes such compression computationally feasible. The computational complexity is O(d.n.q.log(q)) per iteration, where d is the average degree of the check nodes and n is the number of bits. For our code ensemble, decompression can be done in a time linear in the codes length by a simple leaf-removal algorithm.
