Location selection based on erasure code techniques

Abstract:

Systems for location selection based on erasure code techniques are provided. One system includes a monitor module that monitors data speed characteristics for one or more locations on a storage device. Additionally, the system includes a classification module that determines an erasure code technique for an application, wherein data associated with the application is stored on a storage device. Also, the system includes a selection module that selects a location in one or more locations for storing data based on monitored data speed characteristics and a determined erasure code technique.
