Abstract
A storage system receives an initial failure rate of a storage device based on manufacturer specifications and determining a first erasure coding configuration to meet minimum reliability metrics. Data is encoded in the storage device using the first configuration. Operational data is then collected to monitor failures, and a second failure rate is determined if deviations from the initial rate exceed a predetermined threshold. Based on the updated failure rate and reliability metrics, a second erasure coding configuration, different from the first erasure coding configuration, is determined. The system then re-encodes data using the second configuration.
