Abstract

See full text

A network-coding-based distributed file system (NCFS) is disclosed. The NCFS may include a file system layer, a disk layer, and a coding layer. The file system layer may be configured to receive a request, for an operation on data within a data block, to specify the data block to be accessed in a storage node of a plurality of storage nodes. The disk layer may provide an interface to the file system to provide access the plurality of storage nodes via a network. The coding layer may be connected between the file system layer and the disk layer, to encode and/or decode functions of fault-tolerant storage schemes based on a class of maximum distance separable (MDS) codes. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods are disclosed.
