Hi Chaitanya,

I suppose you can get more details that you wanted to know from EC design doc 
attached in JIRA HDFS-7285(https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-7285). 
Hope this makes sense to you.

Thanks
Yiqun

主题: Regarding Hadoop Erasure Coding architecture

Hi!

We a group of people trying to understand the architecture of erasure coding in 
Hadoop 3.0. We have been facing difficulties to understand few terms and 
concepts regarding the same.

1. What do the terms Block, Block Group, Stripe, Cell and Chunk mean in the 
context of erasure coding (these terms have taken different meanings and have 
been used interchangeably over various documentation and blogs)? How has this 
been incorporated in reading and writing of EC data?

2. How has been the idea/concept of the block from previous versions carried 
over to EC?

3. ‎The higher level APIs, that of ErasureCoders and ErasureCodec still hasn't 
been plugged into Hadoop. Also, I haven't found any new Jira regarding the 
same. Can I know if there are any updates or pointers regarding the 
incorporation of these APIs into Hadoop?

4. How is the datanode for reconstruction work chosen?  Also, how are the 
buffer sizes for the reconstruction work determined?


Thanks in advance for your time and considerations.

Regards,
M.V.S.Chaitanya
