Efficient Reed-Solomon Code Repair for Distributed Systems

Tech ID: 34088 / UC Case 2019-917-0

Brief Description

Innovative methods and devices for improving error correction and reducing repair bandwidth in distributed systems using enhanced Reed-Solomon codes.

Full Description

This technology introduces advanced processes and devices for the error correction of distributed data, specifically through the enhancement of Reed-Solomon (RS) codes. It focuses on efficiently repairing data stored across multiple storage nodes, particularly when some nodes become unavailable. By generating a second correction code with an increased subpacketization size, the technology allows for effective erasure repair with optimized repair bandwidth and flexibility in handling single or multiple node failures.

Suggested uses

  • Distributed file systems and cloud storage solutions, enhancing data integrity and availability. 
  • Data centers requiring efficient data recovery solutions. 
  • Telecommunications and networking, for improved data transmission reliability. 
  • Any application or service relying on distributed systems for data storage and management.

Advantages

  • Significantly reduces repair bandwidth for distributed systems. 
  • Increases the subpacketization size, offering a flexible trade-off between repair bandwidth and subpacketization. 
  • Supports efficient repair schemes for both single and multiple node failures. 
  • Improves upon existing Reed-Solomon code repair processes by introducing innovative code constructions and repair schemes. 
  • Enhances data reliability and accessibility in distributed storage systems
