Abstract
The present disclosure involves systems and methods for managing data in a distributed storage system. The distributed storage system may include non-volatile memory (NVM) storage devices and utilize erasure code replication for storage of data. A controller may first store at least some of the K data chunks in NVM devices before storing the coding chunks in other storage devices. In addition, the controller may transmit read requests to the NVM devices of the system first to begin receiving data chunks or coding chunks related to the data object. By writing to and reading from NVM devices first, storage and reading of the data object may occur faster than conventional storage systems.
