Abstract

Cluster storage collection-based data management is described. In one aspect, and in a distributed system for storing data across a network to multiple data storage nodes, a bounded bandwidth available for data repair in the distributed system is determined. A specific number of stripes are then created on each data storage node of the multiple data storage nodes. The stripes are for placement and replication of data objects across respective ones of the data storage nodes. The specific number of stripes created on each data storage node is a function of the determined bounded data repair bandwidth.
