XORing Elephants: Novel Erasure Codes for Big Data
Summary: XORing Elephants proposes erasure codes with an optimal locality–minimum distance tradeoff for repair-efficient, higher reliability than Reed-Solomon. Implemented in Hadoop HDFS, they reduce repair disk I/O and network traffic ~2x, at 14% extra storage, achieving locality-optimal reliability beyond replication.
