Erasure Coding: A method of data protection in which data is broken into fragments, expanded and encoded with redundant data pieces, and stored across a set of different locations or storage media. The objective is to enable the reconstruction of data by using information about the data that’s stored elsewhere in the network, thus providing high fault-tolerance.
