Repair Pipelining for Erasure-coded Storage: Algorithms and Evaluation
2021
We propose repair pipelining, a technique that speeds up the repair performance in general erasure-coded storage. By carefully scheduling the repair of failed data in small-size units across storage nodes in a pipelined manner, repair pipelining reduces the single-block repair time to approximately the same as the normal read time for a single block in homogeneous environments. We further design different extensions of repair pipelining algorithms for heterogeneous environments and multi-block repair operations. We implement a repair pipelining prototype, called ECPipe, and integrate it as a middleware system into two versions of Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) (namely, HDFS-RAID and HDFS-3) as well as Quantcast File System. Experiments on a local testbed and Amazon EC2 show that repair pipelining significantly improves the performance of degraded reads and full-node recovery over existing repair techniques.
