vCorfu - A Cloud-Scale Object Store on a Shared Log

Explore a 24-minute conference talk from USENIX NSDI '17 that introduces vCorfu, a novel cloud-scale object store built on a shared log architecture. Discover how vCorfu enhances traditional shared log replication to deliver fast reads and implements composable state machine replication for efficient scaling of large state machines. Learn about vCorfu's performance advantages over popular NoSQL stores like Cassandra, while offering strong consistency guarantees, efficient transactions, and global snapshots at cloud scale. Gain insights into the innovative techniques used to achieve these capabilities and understand their implications for cloud-scale data storage and management.
