Abstract
A system that implements a near-optimal, reduced-dependency erasure code construction to redundantly distribute computer data across multiple storage nodes includes a memory that stores machine instructions and a processor that executes the machine instructions to group storage segments into discrete groups, each of which corresponds to an individual storage node. The processor further executes the machine instructions to represent regeneration constraints and associate the constraints with storage segments in multiple storage nodes. The processor also executes the machine instructions to generate a parity check matrix based on the regeneration constraints, the associations and the storage segments. The processor additionally executes the machine instructions to construct a generator matrix based on the parity check matrix.
