With the rapid growth on data scale and complexity, single disk failure recovery becomes very important for erasure coded storage systems. In this paper, we propose a new strip-switched deployment method, which utilizes the feature that strips of each stripe of erasure codes could be switched, and uses simulated annealing algorithm to search for the proper strip-deployment on the stack level to balance the read accesses, in order to improve the recovery performance. The analysis and experiments results show that SSDM could effectively improve the single failure recovery performance.

As the demand of data reliability becomes more and more larger, most of today's storage systems adopt erasure codes to assure the data could be reconstructed when suffering from physical device failures. In order to fast recover the lost data from a single failure, recovery optimization methods have attracted a lot of attention in recent years. However, most of the existing optimization methods focus on homogeneous devices, ignoring the fact that the storage devices are usually heterogeneous. In this paper, we propose a new recovery optimization method named HSR (Heterogeneous Storage Recovery) method, which uses both loads and speed rate among physical devices as the optimization target, in order to further improve the recovery performance for heterogeneous devices. The experiment results show that, compared to existing popular recovery optimization methods, HSR method gains much higher recovery speed over heterogeneous storage devices.
