Scalability Updates for Jan 26th 2010
A few interesting updates for today
- Derrick Harris made an insightful observation that Cloud providers are pairing up with CDNs . I won’t be surprised if some consolidations happen in this arena
- Cassandra 0.5.0 is released. I can’t wait to try it out.
- Paper: Keyspace: A consistently replicated, highly-available key-value store
- Paper: PaxosLease: Diskless Paxos for leases
- Cloudkick: A cross cloud-platform monitoring service. A short review here.
- In a post by Reuven Cohen about “Oversubscribing the cloud†talks about why “quotas†are important in a cloud infrastructure. He thinks there is a non-linear relation between capacity and customer demand. If it were non-linear, does it mean things should get more expensive as demand increases ?
- I hadn’t heard of “graph database†until today. HyperGraphDB does just that and its a distributed database.
