Abstract
Techniques for using erasure coding across multiple regions to reduce the likelihood of losing objects in a cloud object storage platform are provided. In one set of embodiments, a computer system can upload each of a plurality of data objects to each of a plurality of regions of the cloud object storage platform. The computer system can further compute a parity object based on the plurality of data objects, where the parity object encodes parity information for the plurality of data objects. The computer system can then upload the parity object to another region of the cloud object storage platform different from the plurality of regions.
