Abstract

On the basis of introducing GE code, we explore the feasibility of implementing a reliable distributed storage system, with high performance and low spending, which is very suitable for embedded systems. Files are distributed across storage nodes using erasure coding with GE code which provides high-reliability with small storage and performance overhead. We present efficient measurements done on a series of prototype systems, and the tests results corroborate our expectation.
