Abstract
A method includes generating, by a processing entity of a computing system, a plurality of parity blocks from a plurality of lines of data blocks. A first number of parity blocks of the plurality of parity blocks is generated from a first line of data blocks of the plurality of lines of data blocks. The method further includes storing, by the processing entity, the plurality of lines of data blocks in data sections of memory of a cluster of computing devices of the computing system in accordance with a read/write balancing pattern and a restricted file system. The method further includes storing, by the processing entity, the plurality of parity blocks in parity sections of memory of the cluster of computing devices in accordance with the read/write balancing pattern and the restricted file system.
