【 摘 要 】

Chain replication is a new approach to coordinating clusters of failstop storage servers. The approach is intended for supporting largescale storage services that exhibit high throughput and availability with out sacrificing strong consistency guarantees. Be sides outlining the chain replication protocols them selves, simulation experiments explore the perfor mance characteristics of a prototype implementa tion. Throughput, availability, and several object placement strategies (including schemes based on
