Abstract

Fabric is a new system and language for building secure distributed information systems. It is a decentralized system that allows heterogeneous network nodes to securely share both information and computation resources despite mutual distrust. Its high-level programming language makes distribution and persistence largely transparent to programmers. Fabric supports data-shipping and function-shipping styles of computation: both computation and information can move between nodes to meet security requirements or to improve performance. Fabric provides a rich, Java-like object model, but data resources are labeled with confidentiality and integrity policies that are enforced through a combination of compile-time and run-time mechanisms. Optimistic, nested transactions ensure consistency across all objects and nodes. A peer-to-peer dissemination layer helps to increase availability and to balance load. Results from applications built using Fabric suggest that Fabric has a clean, concise programming model, offers good performance, and enforces security.

Fabric:一个安全的分布式计算和存储平台

Fabric是构建安全分布式信息系统的一种新的系统和语言。它是一个分散的系统，允许异构网络节点在相互不信任的情况下安全地共享信息和计算资源。它的高级编程语言使得分发和持久化对程序员来说基本上是透明的。Fabric支持数据传输和功能传输的计算方式:计算和信息都可以在节点之间移动，以满足安全要求或提高性能。Fabric提供了一个丰富的、类似java的对象模型，但是数据资源被标记为机密性和完整性策略，这些策略通过编译时和运行时机制的组合来执行。乐观的嵌套事务确保了所有对象和节点之间的一致性。点对点传播层有助于提高可用性和平衡负载。使用Fabric构建的应用程序的结果表明，Fabric具有干净、简洁的编程模型，提供了良好的性能，并增强了安全性。
