Abstract
A storage scheme is a distributed system that coordinates a set of network-attached components. Using this type of solution it is possible to achieve balance in time and space over the involved components. Although this approach was developed to support efficient global states recording, many storage applications, like web hosting or distributed databases, might profit from it to provide highly available and reliable services. We explore the impact of space and information redundancy in order to improve the integrity requirements of files stored according to this management principles.
