TLDR
D Dynamo is presented, a highly available key-value storage system that some of Amazon's core services use to provide an "always-on" experience and makes extensive use of object versioning and application-assisted conflict resolution in a manner that provides a novel interface for developers to use.Abstract:
Reliability at massive scale is one of the biggest challenges we face at Amazon.com, one of the largest e-commerce operations in the world; even the slightest outage has significant financial consequences and impacts customer trust. The Amazon.com platform, which provides services for many web sites worldwide, is implemented on top of an infrastructure of tens of thousands of servers and network components located in many datacenters around the world. At this scale, small and large components fail continuously and the way persistent state is managed in the face of these failures drives the reliability and scalability of the software systems.This paper presents the design and implementation of Dynamo, a highly available key-value storage system that some of Amazon's core services use to provide an "always-on" experience. To achieve this level of availability, Dynamo sacrifices consistency under certain failure scenarios. It makes extensive use of object versioning and application-assisted conflict resolution in a manner that provides a novel interface for developers to use.read more

Minimizing flow completion times in data centers
Ali Munir,Ihsan Ayyub Qazi,Zartash Afzal Uzmi,Aisha Mushtaq,Saad Ismail,M. Safdar Iqbal,Basma Khan +6 more
TL;DR: Though L2DCT is deadline unaware, results indicate that, for typical data center traffic patterns and deadlines and over a wide range of traffic load, its deadline miss rate is consistently smaller compared to existing deadline-driven data center transport protocols.

State management in Apache Flink®: consistent stateful distributed stream processing
TL;DR: Flink's core pipelined, in-flight mechanism is presented which guarantees the creation of lightweight, consistent, distributed snapshots of application state, progressively, without impacting continuous execution, and the low performance trade-offs of the approach are demonstrated.

Time, clocks, and the ordering of events in a distributed system
TL;DR: In this paper, the concept of one event happening before another in a distributed system is examined, and a distributed algorithm is given for synchronizing a system of logical clocks which can be used to totally order the events.
