People want data fast. They also want it consistent. Those two wants pull in opposite directions. This VLDB'25 paper does another take on this conundrum. Rather than assuming a symmetric network environment where all replicas face similar latencies, the paper emphasizes that in practice, some replicas are closer to the leader, where others are stranded halfway across the globe. By embracing this asymmetry, the authors propose two new algorithms: Pairwise-Leader (PL) and Pairwise-All (PA). Bot...| Metadata
This paper (to appear in VLDB'25) proposes a consensus algorithm called "Cabinet", which dynamically adjusts node weights based on responsiveness.| Metadata
Aleksey and I sat down to read this paper on Monday night. This was an experiment which aimed to share how experts read papers in real time. We haven't read this paper before to keep things raw. As it is with research, we ended up arguing with the paper (and between each other) back and forth. It was messy, and it was also awesome. We had a lot of fun. Check our discussion video below (please listen at 1.5x, I sound less horrible at that speed, ah also this thing is 2 hours long). The paper I...| Metadata
