Abstract
In some examples, an erasure code can be implemented to provide for fault-tolerant storage of data. Maximally recoverable cloud codes, resilient cloud codes, and robust product codes are examples of different erasure codes that can be implemented to encode and store data. Implementing different erasure codes and different parameters within each erasure code can involve trade-offs between reliability, redundancy, and locality. In some examples, an erasure code can specify placement of the encoded data on machines that are organized into racks.
