Abstract
Example storage systems, storage nodes, and methods provide erasure coding of data shards containing multiple data objects. Storage nodes store data shards having a data shard size and each containing a plurality of data objects, where the sum of the data object sizes is less than the data shard size. Some storage nodes store a parity shard containing parity data for the other data shards.
