ABSTRACT
The massive data centers storing our information face constant challenges: hardware failures, unpredictable performance, and limited resources. How can we ensure our data stays safe and accessible in this ever-changing environment? This talk explores the surprising power of coding theory, a branch of mathematics that helps us store data efficiently and safely even when systems malfunction. I will start by delving into the basic principles behind coding theory and showing how it is used in modern storage systems. Finally, I will present a peek into cutting-edge research that's pushing the boundaries of data protection with even smarter codes.
