Memory-compute disaggregation promises transparent elasticity, high utilization and balanced usage for resources in data centers by physically separating memory and compute into network-attached resource blades. However, existing designs achieve performance at the cost of resource elasticity, restricting memory sharing to a single compute blade to avoid costly memory coherence traffic over the network. In this work, we show that emerging programmable network switches can enable an efficient shared memory abstraction for disaggregated architectures by placing memory management logic in the network fabric. We find that centralizing memory management in the network permits bandwidth and latency-efficient realization of in-network cache coherence protocols, while programmable switch ASICs support other memory management logic at line-rate. We realize these insights into MIND, an in-network memory management unit for rack-scale memory disaggregation. MIND enables transparent resource elasticity while matching the performance of prior memory disaggregation proposals for real-world workloads.

Cloud service providers are distributing data centers geographically to minimize energy costs through intelligent workload distribution. With increasing data volumes in emerging cloud workloads, it is critical to factor in the network costs for trans
ferring workloads across data centers. For geo-distributed data centers, many researchers have been exploring strategies for energy cost minimization and intelligent inter-data-center workload distribution separately. However, prior work does not comprehensively and simultaneously consider data center energy costs, data transfer costs, and data center queueing delay. In this paper, we propose a novel game theory-based workload management framework that takes a holistic approach to the cloud operating cost minimization problem by making intelligent scheduling decisions aware of data transfer costs and the data center queueing delay. Our framework performs intelligent workload management that considers heterogeneity in data center compute capability, cooling power, interference effects from task co-location in servers, time-of-use electricity pricing, renewable energy, net metering, peak demand pricing distribution, and network pricing. Our simulations show that the proposed game-theoretic technique can minimize the cloud operating cost more effectively than existing approaches.
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.
This paper describes how to augment techniques such as Distributed Shared Memory with recent trends on disaggregated Non Volatile Memory in the data centre so that the combination can be used in an edge environment with potentially volatile and mobil
e resources. This article identifies the main advantages and challenges, and offers an architectural evolution to incorporate recent research trends into production-ready disaggregated edges. We also present two prototypes showing the feasibility of this proposal.
We present Memtrade, the first memory disaggregation system for public clouds. Public clouds introduce a set of unique challenges for resource disaggregation across different tenants, including security, isolation and pricing. Memtrade allows produce
r virtual machines (VMs) to lease both their unallocated memory and allocated-but-idle application memory to remote consumer VMs for a limited period of time. Memtrade does not require any modifications to host-level system software or support from the cloud provider. It harvests producer memory using an application-aware control loop to form a distributed transient remote memory pool with minimal performance impact; it employs a broker to match producers with consumers while satisfying performance constraints; and it exposes the matched memory to consumers as a secure KV cache. Our evaluation using real-world cluster traces shows that Memtrade provides significant performance benefit for consumers (improving average read latency up to 2.8x) while preserving confidentiality and integrity, with little impact on producer applications (degrading performance by less than 2.1%).
Disaggregated memory architectures provide benefits to applications beyond traditional scale out environments, such as independent scaling of compute and memory resources. They also provide an independent failure model, where computations or the comp
ute nodes they run on may fail independently of the disaggregated memory; thus, data thats resident in the disaggregated memory is unaffected by the compute failure. Blind application of traditional techniques for resilience (e.g., checkpoints or data replication) does not take advantage of these architectures. To demonstrate the potential benefit of these architectures for resilience, we develop Memory-Oriented Distributed Computing (MODC), a framework for programming disaggregated architectures that borrows and adapts ideas from task-based programming models, concurrent programming techniques, and lock-free data structures. This framework includes a task-based application programming model and a runtime system that provides scheduling, coordination, and fault tolerance mechanisms. We present highlights of our MODC prototype and experimental results demonstrating that MODC-style resilience outperforms a checkpoint-based approach in the face of failures.
