Abstract
A geographically distributed erasure coding system includes multiple computer readable, non-transitory storage memories capable of storing a digital dataset including multiple object blocks, where each storage memory is configured to store one or more of the object blocks of the dataset according to an erasure coding policy. The system includes one or more processors configured to implement the erasure coding policy by distributing the multiple object blocks of the dataset to the multiple storage memories according to distribution criteria of the erasure coding policy, and the distribution criteria include at least one status parameter associated with each storage memory. The multiple storage memories are geographically distributed at different locations from one another.
