Erasure Coding

Also known asReed-Solomon
A Reed-Solomon error-correction scheme applied to shreds during block propagation. The leader encodes each batch of 32 data shreds into 32 additional recovery (parity) shreds. Any 32 of the 64 total shreds are sufficient to reconstruct the original data, providing 50% loss tolerance during Turbine propagation.
