We present the design and implementation of a low-latency, low-overhead, and highly available resilient disaggregated cluster memory. Our proposed framework can access erasure-coded remote memory within a single-digit {mu}s read/write latency, significantly improving the performance-efficiency tradeoff over the state-of-the-art - it performs similar to in-memory replication with 1.6x lower memory overhead. We also propose a novel coding group placement algorithm for erasure-coded data, that provides load balancing while reducing the probability of data loss under correlated failures by an order of magnitude.

Principal component analysis (PCA) is not only a fundamental dimension reduction method, but is also a widely used network anomaly detection technique. Traditionally, PCA is performed in a centralized manner, which has poor scalability for large dist
ributed systems, on account of the large network bandwidth cost required to gather the distributed state at a fusion center. Consequently, several recent works have proposed various distributed PCA algorithms aiming to reduce the communication overhead incurred by PCA without losing its inferential power. This paper evaluates the tradeoff between communication cost and solution quality of two distributed PCA algorithms on a real domain name system (DNS) query dataset from a large network. We also apply the distributed PCA algorithm in the area of network anomaly detection and demonstrate that the detection accuracy of both distributed PCA-based methods has little degradation in quality, yet achieves significant savings in communication bandwidth.
Memory disaggregation provides efficient memory utilization across network-connected systems. It allows a node to use part of memory in remote nodes in the same cluster. Recent studies have improved RDMA-based memory disaggregation systems, supportin
g lower latency and higher bandwidth than the prior generation of disaggregated memory. However, the current disaggregated memory systems manage remote memory only at coarse granularity due to the limitation of the access validation mechanism of RDMA. In such systems, to support fine-grained remote page allocation, the trustworthiness of all participating systems needs to be assumed, and thus a security breach in a node can propagate to the entire cluster. From the security perspective, the memory-providing node must protect its memory from memory-requesting nodes. On the other hand, the memory-requesting node requires the confidentiality and integrity protection of its memory contents even if they are stored in remote nodes. To address the weak isolation support in the current system, this study proposes a novel hardware-assisted memory disaggregation system. Based on the security features of FPGA, the logic in each per-node FPGA board provides a secure memory disaggregation engine. With its own networks, a set of FPGA-based engines form a trusted memory disaggregation system, which is isolated from the privileged software of each participating node. The secure memory disaggregation system allows fine-grained memory management in memory-providing nodes, while the access validation is guaranteed with the hardware-hardened mechanism. In addition, the proposed system hides the memory access patterns observable from remote nodes, supporting obliviousness. Our evaluation with FPGA implementation shows that such fine-grained secure disaggregated memory is feasible with comparable performance to the latest software-based techniques.
Although a data processing system often works as a batch processing system, many enterprises deploy such a system as a service, which we call the service-oriented data processing system. It has been shown that in-memory data processing systems suffer
from serious memory pressure. The situation becomes even worse for the service-oriented data processing systems due to various reasons. For example, in a service-oriented system, multiple submitted tasks are launched at the same time and executed in the same context in the resources, comparing with the batch processing mode where the tasks are processed one by one. Therefore, the memory pressure will affect all submitted tasks, including the tasks that only incur the light memory pressure when they are run alone. In this paper, we find that the reason why memory pressure arises is because the running tasks produce massive long-living data objects in the limited memory space. Our studies further reveal that the long-living data objects are generated by the API functions that are invoked by the in-memory processing frameworks. Based on these findings, we propose a method to classify the API functions based on the memory usage rate. Further, we design a scheduler called MURS to mitigate the memory pressure. We implement MURS in Spark and conduct the experiments to evaluate the performance of MURS. The results show that when comparing to Spark, MURS can 1) decrease the execution time of the submitted jobs by up to 65.8%, 2) mitigate the memory pressure in the server by decreasing the garbage collection time by up to 81%, and 3) reduce the data spilling, and hence disk I/O, by approximately 90%.
System noise can negatively impact the performance of HPC systems, and the interconnection network is one of the main factors contributing to this problem. To mitigate this effect, adaptive routing sends packets on non-minimal paths if they are less
congested. However, while this may mitigate interference caused by congestion, it also generates more traffic since packets traverse additional hops, causing in turn congestion on other applications and on the application itself. In this paper, we first describe how to estimate network noise. By following these guidelines, we show how noise can be reduced by using routing algorithms which select minimal paths with a higher probability. We exploit this knowledge to design an algorithm which changes the probability of selecting minimal paths according to the application characteristics. We validate our solution on microbenchmarks and real-world applications on two systems relying on a Dragonfly interconnection network, showing noise reduction and performance improvement.
Byte-addressable persistent memories (PM) has finally made their way into production. An important and pressing problem that follows is how to deploy them in existing datacenters. One viable approach is to attach PM as self-contained devices to the n
etwork as disaggregated persistent memory, or DPM. DPM requires no changes to existing servers in datacenters; without the need to include a processor, DPM devices are cheap to build; and by sharing DPM across compute servers, they offer great elasticity and efficient resource packing. This paper explores different ways to organize DPM and to build data stores with DPM. Specifically, we propose three architectures of DPM: 1) compute nodes directly access DPM (DPM-Direct); 2) compute nodes send requests to a coordinator server, which then accesses DPM to complete a request (DPM-Central); and 3) compute nodes directly access DPM for data operations and communicate with a global metadata server for the control plane (DPM-Sep). Based on these architectures, we built three atomic, crash-consistent data stores. We evaluated their performance, scalability, and CPU cost with micro-benchmarks and YCSB. Our evaluation results show that DPM-Direct has great small-size read but poor write performance; DPM-Central has the best write performance when the scale of the cluster is small but performs poorly when the scale increases; and DPM-Sep performs well overall.
