- Wide Locally Recoverable Codes (LRCs) have recently been proposed as a solution for achieving high reliability, good performance, and ultra-low storage cost in distributed storage systems. However, existing wide LRCs struggle to balance optimal fault tolerance and high availability during frequent system events. By analyzing the existing LRCs, we reveal three limitations in the LRC construction which lay behind the non-optimal overall performance from multiple perspectives, including non-minimum local recovery cost, non cluster-topology-aware data distribution, and non XOR-based local coding. Thanks to the flexible design space offered by the locality property of wide LRCs, we present UniLRC, which unifies locality considerations in code construction. UniLRC achieves the optimal fault tolerance while overcoming the revealed limitations. We implement UniLRC prototype and conduct comprehensive theoretical and system evaluations, showing significant improvements in reliability and performance over existing wide LRCs deployed in Google and Azure clusters.
