Abstract
Apparatuses, methods and storage medium associated with generating erasure codes for data to be stored in a storage system. In embodiments, a method may include launching, by storage system, a plurality of instances of an erasure code generation module, based at least in part on hardware configuration of the storage system. Additionally, the method may further include setting, by the storage system, operational parameters of the plurality of instances of the erasure code generation module, based at least in part on current system load of the storage system. Further, the method may include operating, by the storage system, the plurality of instances of the erasure code generation module to generate erasure codes for data to be stored in the storage system, in accordance with the operational parameters set. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
