Probabilistically bounded staleness for practical partial quorums
2012
Proceedings of the VLDB Endowment
We introduce Probabilistically Bounded Staleness (PBS) consistency, which provides expected bounds on staleness with respect to both versions and wall clock time. ...
In this work, we explain why partial quorums are regularly acceptable in practice, analyzing both the staleness of data they return and the latency benefits they offer. ...
Acknowledgments The authors would like to thank Alex Feinberg and Coda Hale for their cooperation in providing real-world distributions for experiments and for exemplifying positive industrial-academic ...

Quantifying eventual consistency with PBS
2014
Communications of the ACM
To quantify the behavior of eventually consistent stores, we introduce Probabilistically Bounded Staleness (PBS), a consistency model that provides expected bounds on data staleness with respect to both ...
We derive a closed-form solution for version-based staleness and model real-time staleness for a large class of quorum replicated, Dynamo-style stores. ...
We present probabilistic models for such bounds called Probabilistically Bounded Staleness, or PBS. ...

On the Availability of Non-strict Quorum Systems
[chapter]
2005
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
For environments with a relatively large failure frequency compared to write frequency, we propose K-quorums that can provide higher availability than the strict quorum systems and also guarantee bounded ...

To ensure bounded staleness we require that any K partial-writequorums, used for successive writes, collectively contain a write quorum. ...

Byzantine and Multi-writer K-Quorums
[chapter]
2006
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
For a system with m writers, we prove a lower bound of (2m − 1)(k − 1) + 1 ¡ on the staleness of any multi-writer protocol built over a single-writer k-quorum system and propose a multi-writer protocol ...

By allowing for lower availability than probabilistic systems, they guaran-tee a bound on the staleness of returned values even in the presence of an adversarial scheduler. ...

Continuous Partial Quorums for Consistency-Latency Tuning in Distributed NoSQL Storage Systems
[article]
2015
arXiv
pre-print
We propose a novel technique called continuous partial quorums (CPQ) that assigns the consistency level on a per-operation basis by choosing randomly between two options, such as eventual and strong consistency ...
NoSQL storage systems are used extensively by web applications and provide an attractive alternative to conventional databases when the need for scalability outweighs the need for transactions. ...
Probabilistically bounded staleness (PBS) is a mathematical model of partial quorums that overcomes these limitations but is based upon the simplifying assumption that writes do not execute concurrently ...

Overcoming the Majority Barrier in Large-Scale Systems

2003
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
To overcome the barrier realistically, this paper proposes a witness model that probabilistically strengthens the traditional asynchronous model for large-scale systems. ...
We argue that the majority barrier significantly limits the availability of practical systems such as peer-to-peer systems. ...

Efficient Hierarchical Quorums in Unstructured Peer-to-Peer Networks
[chapter]
2009
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
In practice, this should be accomplished by coordinating and writing to only a small number of peers. ...
Furthermore, our two quorum approaches are interchangeable within the same network, providing adaptivity by allowing one to be swapped for the other as network conditions change. ...

ACM Transactions on Computer Systems
This article explores several access strategies for implementing probabilistic quorums in ad hoc networks. ...
One of the known ways of making quorums scalable and efficient is by weakening their intersection guarantee to being probabilistic. ...
Probabilistic Quorums In probabilistic quorums [Malkhi et al. 2001 ], a quorum system is not fixed a priori, but is rather picked in a probabilistic manner for each interaction with the quorum system. ...

It is precisely this unpredictability that makes probabilistic protocols very appealing for such environments. ...
The main reason for this is the increased amount of stale routing information. In practice, this effect does not appear in the presence of background traffic. ...
