Problems solved by technology

[0004] Dynamo provides good scalability and availability, but it is more suitable for storing large-scale small data. GFS can provide file-level storage, but there may be a single point of failure. Therefore, how to design a system that ensures scalability On the basis of availability and availability, it is a technical problem to be solved for a distributed storage system with large-scale metadata and data

Embodiment Construction

[0034] The specific implementation manners of the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. The following examples are used to illustrate the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0035] figure 1 It is the main flow chart of the data storage method based on distributed hash table and erasure code in the present invention.

[0036] Step S1 (node ​​creation step), establish the topological logic structure of each server node through a distributed hash table (such as Chord) (such as Figure 4 shown), and through the consistent hash algorithm, determine the location of the server where the block (or data block) corresponding to each key (key) is located. In the present invention, the entire system is built on the local file system storage, and the management of data blocks provides get (key) to return data blocks, put (key, block) to write data blocks...

Abstract

The invention discloses a data storage method based on a distributed hash table and erasure codes, and mainly relates to the field of distributed storage. The data storage method includes the following steps that a storage system manages data blocks wholly through a decentralized distributed hash table structure; in order to guarantee reliability, redundancy storage is conducted on the data blocks through erasure code coding; data are regularly scanned in a background process to maintain uniformity and redundancy of the data. According to the data storage method based on the distributed hash table and the erasure codes, the storage system has the decentralized structure and is better than a traditional distributed storage system in expansibility, and storage cost caused by data redundancy is reduced through the erasure codes on the premise that reliability of the data is guaranteed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of distributed storage, in particular to a data storage method based on an erasure code and a distributed hash table, that is, a decentralized storage method. Background technique [0002] Due to its advantages in mass storage, distributed storage systems are gradually replacing traditional local file systems in the Internet field. Amazon's (Amazon) Dynamo distributed storage engine is another typical distributed storage system. It is designed to be completely decentralized, has very good scalability and availability, and provides external key-value-based key- value access interface. Dynamo internally uses the Chord protocol to route information, finds the node responsible for a key in a P2P environment, and uses consistent hashing in Chord, making the entire system more scalable. In Dynamo, in order to ensure that the data is available at any time as much as possible, the strategy of N copies is adopted. Ea...
