Overview
Explore the architectural approaches used in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Object Storage to achieve high durability in this 20-minute video blog. Dive into the principles of redundancy and recovery as OCI architects Laurion Burchall and Pradeep Vincent discuss efficient data replication, erasure coding, and fast failure recovery techniques. Learn about the replication design, minimizing disk failure impact, and the process of achieving 11 9's durability. Gain insights into handling software bugs, balancing testing with feature releases, and the overall strategy for maintaining exceptional data durability in cloud storage systems.
