Introduction: An interesting and different implementation approach:  Tempest: Scalable Time-Critical Web Services Platform :  Tempest is a new framework for developing time-critical web services. Tempest enables developers to build scalable, fault-tolerant services that can then be automatically replicated and deployed across clusters of computing nodes. The platform automatically adapts to load fluctuations, reacts when components fail, and ensures consistency between replicas by repairing when inconsistencies do occur. Tempest relies on a family of epidemic protocols and on Ricochet, a reliable time critical multicast protocol with probabilistic guarantees. Tempest is built around a novel storage abstraction called the TempestCollection in which application developers store the state of a service. Our platform handles the replication of this state across clones of the service, persistence, and failure handling. To minimize the need for specialized knowledge on the part of the application deve

1 Tempest enables developers to build scalable, fault-tolerant services that can then be automatically replicated and deployed across clusters of computing nodes. [sent-2, score-0.158]

2 The platform automatically adapts to load fluctuations, reacts when components fail, and ensures consistency between replicas by repairing when inconsistencies do occur. [sent-3, score-0.726]

3 Tempest relies on a family of epidemic protocols and on Ricochet, a reliable time critical multicast protocol with probabilistic guarantees. [sent-4, score-0.481]

4 Tempest is built around a novel storage abstraction called the TempestCollection in which application developers store the state of a service. [sent-5, score-0.196]

5 Our platform handles the replication of this state across clones of the service, persistence, and failure handling. [sent-6, score-0.232]

6 To minimize the need for specialized knowledge on the part of the application developer, the TempestCollection employs interfaces almost identical to those used by the Java Collections standard. [sent-7, score-0.14]

7 Elements can be accessed on an individual basis, but it is also possible to access the full set by iterating over it, just as in a standard Collection. [sent-8, score-0.151]

8 The hope is that we can free developers from the complexities of scalability and fault-tolerance, leaving them to focus on application functionality. [sent-9, score-0.224]

9 Traditionally, services relying on a transactional database backend offer a strong data consistency model in which every read operation returns the result of the latest update that occurred on a data item. [sent-10, score-0.628]

10 With Tempest we take a different approach by relaxing the model such that services offer sequential consistency [10]: Every replica of the service sees the operations on the same data item in the same order, but the order may be different from the order in which the operations were issued. [sent-11, score-0.887]

11 Later, we will see that this is a non-trivial design decision; Tempest services can sometimes return results that would be erroneous were we using a more standard transactional execution model. [sent-12, score-0.387]

12 For applications where these semantics are adequate, sequential consistency buys us scheduling flexibility that enables much better real-time responsiveness. [sent-13, score-0.548]

Introduction: Update: Streamy Explains CAP and HBase's Approach to CAP . We plan to employ inter-cluster replication, with each cluster located in a single DC. Remote replication will introduce some eventual consistency into the system, but each cluster will continue to be strongly consistent. Ryan Barrett, Google App Engine datastore lead, gave this talk Transactions Across Datacenters (and Other Weekend Projects) at the Google I/O 2009 conference. While the talk doesn't necessarily break new technical ground, Ryan does an excellent job explaining and evaluating the different options you have when architecting a system to work across multiple datacenters. This is called multihoming , operating from multiple datacenters simultaneously. As multihoming is one of the most challenging tasks in all computing, Ryan's clear and thoughtful style comfortably leads you through the various options. On the trip you learn: The different multi-homing options are: Backups, Master-Slave, Multi-M

Introduction: Georeplication is one of the standard techniques for dealing when bad things--failure and latency--happen to good systems. The problem is always: how do you do that?  Murat Demirbas , Associate Professor at SUNY Buffalo, has a couple of really good posts that can help: MDCC: Multi-Data Center Consistency  and Making Geo-Replicated Systems Fast as Possible, Consistent when Necessary .  In  MDCC: Multi-Data Center Consistency  Murat discusses a paper that says synchronous wide-area replication can be feasible. There's a quick and clear explanation of Paxos and various optimizations that is worth the price of admission. We find that strong consistency doesn't have to be lost across a WAN: The good thing about using Paxos over the WAN is you /almost/ get the full CAP  (all three properties: consistency, availability, and partition-freedom). As we discussed earlier (Paxos taught), Paxos is CP, that is, in the presence of a partition, Paxos keeps consistency over availability. But, P

Introduction: Teams from Princeton and CMU are working together to solve one of the most difficult problems in the repertoire: scalable geo-distributed data stores. Major companies like Google and Facebook have been working on multiple datacenter database functionality for some time, but there's still a general lack of available systems that work for complex data scenarios. The ideas in this paper-- Don’t Settle for Eventual: Scalable Causal Consistency for Wide-Area Storage with COPS --are different. It's not another eventually consistent system, or a traditional transaction oriented system, or a replication based system, or a system that punts on the issue. It's something new, a causally consistent system that achieves ALPS system properties. Move over CAP, NoSQL, etc, we have another acronym: ALPS - Available (operations always complete successfully), Low-latency (operations complete quickly (single digit milliseconds)), Partition-tolerant (operates with a partition), and Scalable (just a

Introduction: Abstract: When designing distributed web services, there are three properties that are commonly desired: consistency, availability, and partition tolerance. It is impossible to achieve all three. In this note, we prove this conjecture in the asynchronous network model, and then discuss solutions to this dilemma in the partially synchronous model.

3 0.80298495 507 high scalability-2009-02-03-Paper: Optimistic Replication

Introduction: To scale in the large you have to partition. Data has to be spread around, replicated, and kept consistent (keeping replicas sufficiently similar to one another despite operations being submitted independently at different sites). The result is a highly available, well performing, and scalable system. Partitioning is required, but it's a pain to do efficiently and correctly. Until Quantum teleportation becomes a reality how data is kept consistent across a bewildering number of failure scenarios is a key design decision. This excellent paper by Yasushi Saito and Marc Shapiro takes us on a wild ride (OK, maybe not so wild) of different approaches to achieving consistency. What's cool about this paper is they go over some real systems that we are familiar with and cover how they work: DNS (single-master, state-transfer), Usenet (multi-master), PDAs (multi-master, state-transfer, manual or application-specific conflict resolution), Bayou (multi-master, operation-transfer, epidemic

Introduction: For a great Christmas read forget The Night Before Christmas , a heart warming poem written by Clement Moore for his children, that created the modern idea of Santa Clause we all know and anticipate each Christmas eve. Instead, curl up with a some potent  eggnog , nog being any drink made with rum, and read  CRDTs: Consistency without concurrency control  by Mihai Letia, Nuno Preguiça, and Marc Shapiro, which talks about CRDTs (Commutative Replicated Data Type), a data type whose operations commute when they are concurrent . From the introduction, which also serves as a nice concise overview of distributed consistency issues: Shared read-only data is easy to scale by using well-understood replication techniques. However, sharing mutable data at a large scale is a difficult problem, because of the CAP impossibility result [5]. Two approaches dominate in practice. One ensures scalability by giving up consistency guarantees, for instance using the Last-Writer-Wins (LWW) approach [

Introduction: The Peregrine falcon is a bird of prey, famous for its high speed diving attacks , feeding primarily on much slower Hadoops. Wait, sorry, it is Kevin Burton of Spinn3r's new Peregrine project -- a new FAST modern map reduce framework optimized for iterative and pipelined map reduce jobs -- that feeds on Hadoops. If you don't know Kevin, he does a lot of excellent technical work that he's kind enough to share it on his blog . Only he hasn't been blogging much lately, he's been heads down working on Peregrine. Now that Peregrine has been released, here's a short email interview with Kevin on why you might want to take up falconry , the ancient sport of MapReduce. What does Spinn3r do that Peregrine is important to you? Ideally it was designed to execute pagerank but many iterative applications that we deploy and WANT to deploy (k-means) would be horribly inefficient under Hadoop as it doesn't have any support for merging and joining IO between tasks.  It also doesn't support
