Abstract: A method comprising: generating a storage chunk having a plurality of data fragments, the storage chunk stored in one or more storage devices; allocating space in a primary memory to store a plurality of coded fragments; receiving a plurality of I/O requests to write data; allocating space in the primary memory to store a next unfilled data fragment; processing a plurality of I/O requests to write data; and copying the coded fragments from the primary memory to the one or more storage devices. For each I/O request, writing the data to the next unfilled data fragment in the one or more storage devices, writing the data to the next unfilled data fragment in the primary memory, and if the data fragment in the primary memory is full, updating the coded fragments in the primary memory using the filled data fragment in the primary memory.

Abstract: A method for generating coded fragments comprises receiving data to be encoded, splitting the data into a plurality of data fragments, identifying a first group of data fragments from among the plurality of data fragments using a coding matrix, summing the data fragments within the first group of data fragments to generate a first group sum, and using the first group sum to calculate at least a portion of two or more coded fragments.

Abstract: Data object content verification systems and processes provide perfect reliability and low storage overhead. Object data is generated in a reproducible manner based upon object locally stored object metadata. The object data is stored to an object storage system. The stored object data is subsequently verified by retrieving the object metadata, reproducing the original object data, and comparing the stored and original object data. The data object content verification systems and processes support both mutable and immutable data object content verification.

Abstract: A data object content verification technique provides perfect reliability and low storage overhead. Object data is generated in a reproducible manner based upon object locally stored object metadata. The object data is stored to an object storage system. The stored object data is subsequently verified by retrieving the object metadata, regenerating the original object data, and comparing the stored and original object data.
