James S. Plank received his BS from Yale University in 1988 and his PhD from Princeton University in 1993. He is a professor in the Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Department at the University of Tennessee, where he has been since 1993. His research interests are in fault-tolerance, erasure coding, storage systems, and distributed computing. He is a past Associate Editor of IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Computing, and a member of the IEEE Computer Society. plank@cs.utk.edu Storage systems have grown to the point where failures are inevitable, and those who design systems must plan ahead so that precious data is not lost when failures occur. The core technology for protecting data from failures is erasure coding, which has a rich 50+ year history stemming communication systems, and as such, can be confusing to the storage systems community. In this article, I present a primer on erasure coding as it applies to storage systems, and I summarize some recent research on erasure coding.
