Hi everyone, I just like to know what's your opinion about the reliability of erasure coding. Of course I can understand if we want the «best of the best of the best» ;-) I can choose the replica method. I heard in many location “replica” are more reliable, “replica” are more efficient etc... Yes...well since 25 years I'm using raid (5, 6, lvm, raidz1, raidz2, etc.) I never loose data only once when a firmware bug in some xxxxx card crash the raid volume. Now 25 years later lot of people recommend to use replica so if I buy XTo I'm only going to have X/3 To (vs raidz2 where I loose 2 disks over 9-12 disks). So my question are : Anyone use in large scale erasure coding for critical (same level as raidz1/raid5 ou raidz2/raid6) ?
