The monolithic server model where a server is the unit of deployment, operation, and failure
is meeting its limits in the face of several recent hardware and application trends. To improve …

Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) based network devices are increasingly being
deployed in modern data centers. RDMA brings significant performance improvements over …

Today's datacenter applications are underpinned by datastores that are responsible for
providing availability, consistency, and performance. For high availability in the presence of …

Distributed LSM-based databases face throughput and latency issues due to load
imbalance across instances and interference from background tasks such as flushing …

The byte-addressable non-volatile memory (NVM) is a promising technology since it
simultaneously provides DRAM-like performance, disk-like capacity, and persistency. The …

As an important part of the new infrastructure, the cloud data center is developing rapidly,
and its energy consumption problem is becoming more and more prominent. Therefore …

Resource management for geo-distributed infrastructures is challenging due to the scarcity
and non-uniformity of edge resources, as well as the high client mobility and workload …

We propose logical memory pools, a memory disaggregation architecture for the emerging
Compute Express Link (CXL) technology in datacenters. The key idea is to create a memory …

Today's cloud based online services are underpinned by distributed key-value stores (KVS).
Such KVS typically use a scale-out architecture, whereby the dataset is partitioned across a …

Online services in modern datacenters use Remote Procedure Calls (RPCs) to
communicate between different software layers. Despite RPCs using just a few small …
