SYSTEM, DEVICE AND METHOD FOR STORAGE DEVICE ASSISTED LOW-BANDWIDTH DATA REPAIR - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240345923 titled 'SYSTEM, DEVICE AND METHOD FOR STORAGE DEVICE ASSISTED LOW-BANDWIDTH DATA REPAIR
The abstract describes an apparatus with a regeneration-code-aware (RCA) storage device that can calculate data regeneration codes for error correction. The device stores data in chunks, which consist of data blocks, and can compute data regeneration codes based on a selected number of data blocks when requested by an external host device.
- The apparatus includes a regeneration-code-aware (RCA) storage device.
- The RCA storage device can calculate data regeneration codes for error correction.
- Data is stored in chunks, which are made up of data blocks.
- The device can compute data regeneration codes based on a selected number of data blocks.
- The data regeneration code can be transmitted to an external host device.
Potential Applications: - Data storage systems - Error correction in data transmission - Information security systems
Problems Solved: - Data errors in storage and transmission - Efficient data regeneration for error correction
Benefits: - Improved data reliability - Enhanced error correction capabilities - Secure data storage and transmission
Commercial Applications: Title: "Data Regeneration Code Storage Device for Enhanced Error Correction" This technology can be used in: - Cloud storage services - Network-attached storage systems - Data centers
