To this end, we (1) design from scratch a canonical cloud system—a distributed, consensus-based, linearizable key-values store, (2) implement it in C++, Java, Rust, and Go, (3) evaluate implementations under an update-heavy and read-heavy workloads on AWS under different resource constraints while trying to hit the maximum throughput with a fixed low tail…</p><p><a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/2405.11182/">Paper and discussion history</a>.
