However, the performance of such network storage hinges on knowing the I/O traffic patterns and optimizing the network for such patterns. Recently the notion of self-similarity has been applied to I/O workload, just like to wide-area and local-area network traffic. In this paper, basing on self-similar stochastic processes, we study the long-range dependencies in data traffic for object-based storage system (OBSS) and discuss the relation between I/O workload and network traffic about self-similarity","PeriodicalId":439264,"journal":{"name":"2006 International Workshop on Networking, Architecture, and Storages (IWNAS'06)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131306842","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore they become a cost-effective solution. High availability with node failures, strong data consistency, flexible expandability and high I/O throughput are still important challenges in the face of the system design. In this paper, we describe the design and implementation of a LAN-based decentralized storage cluster built upon off-the-shelf commodity components. It employs replication and erasure-codes to provide high reliability and automatic failure recovery, adapts versioning to achieve single-file serializability and replicas consistency, supports data migration scheme to balance I/O workload and storage utilization, and provides global unified content cache to optimize memory-to-disk policy.

Previous studies use pin-down cache and batched deregistration to address this issue. In this paper, we propose a new design of communication process: Fast RDMA read and write process (FRRWP), to reduce the overhead of the memory registration and message synchronization in the critical data path of RDMA operations. FRRWP overlaps memory registrations between a client and a server, and allows applications to submit RDMA write operations without being blocked by message synchronization. We use a mathematic model to calculate the overall latency of FRRWP. Compared to traditional RDMA operations, our results show FRRWP reduces the total communication latency dramatically in the critical data path","PeriodicalId":439264,"journal":{"name":"2006 International Workshop on Networking, Architecture, and Storages (IWNAS'06)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132382201","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
