Asynchronous Prefix Recoverability for Fast Distributed Stores
International Conference on Management of Data(2021)
摘要
ABSTRACTAccessing and updating data sharded across distributed machines safely and speedily in the face of failures remains a challenging problem. Most prominently, applications that share state across different nodes want their writes to quickly become visible to others, without giving up recoverability guarantees in case a failure occurs. Current solutions of a fast cache backed by storage cannot support this use case easily. In this work, we design a distributed protocol, called Distributed Prefix Recovery (DPR) that builds on top of a sharded cache-store architecture with single-key operations, to provide cross-shard recoverability guarantees. With DPR, many clients can read and update shared state at sub-millisecond latency, while receiving periodic prefix durability guarantees. On failure, DPR quickly restores the system to a prefix-consistent state with a novel non-blocking rollback scheme. We added DPR to a key-value store (FASTER) and cache (Redis) and show that we can get high throughput and low latency similar to in-memory systems, while lazily providing durability guarantees similar to persistent stores.
