Replicating Persistent Memory Key-Value Stores with Efficient RDMA Abstraction

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Qing Wang, Youyou Lu, Jing Wang, Jiwu Shu, | Summary: Combining persistent memory (PM) with RDMA is a promising approach to performant replicated distributed key-value stores (KVSs). However, existing replication approaches do not work well when applied to PM KVSs: 1) Using RPC induces software queueing and […]
