Abstract

The disclosed technology generally describes a preliminary (e.g., triple mirroring) data protection scheme that operates by writing data as redundant (e.g., three) composite copies made up of copies of data fragments to different nodes of a data storage system. The data fragments are distributed such that any two nodes can fail yet a complete set of data remains among the remaining data fragments. Later, erasure encoding creates redundant coding fragments that are written to the nodes of a data storage system in a distributed manner along with one copy of the data fragments, such that any two nodes can fail but the complete data can still be recovered. Redundant data fragments are then deleted.
