Abstract: A stripe merging method and system based on erasure codes are provided. A StripeMerge-P algorithm is used first to determine alignment information of parity chunks of erasure code stripes based on a preprocessed hash table. Through a greedy strategy, erasure code stripe pairs to be merged are selected for merging. Through the hash table, location information of the parity chunks is directly looked up, so that no additional computing overhead is required, and the overhead of selecting and merging the erasure code stripe pairs is further reduced through the combination with the greedy strategy.
