ForkBase:用于可分支应用的不可变、防篡改存储基板
ForkBase: Immutable, Tamper-evident Storage Substrate for Branchable Applications
摘要:
数据协作活动通常需要系统的或基于协议的协调才能扩展。Git是协作编码的有效推动者,已经在世界各地无数项目中取得了成功。因此,将Git哲学应用于编码之外的一般数据协作是一种激励。我们称之为Git for data。然而,最初的Git设计以文件粒度处理数据,这对于许多数据库应用程序来说太粗了。我们认为,Git数据应该与数据库系统共同设计。为此,我们开发了ForkBase,使Git for data变得实用。ForkBase是一个分布式的、不可变的存储系统,用于数据版本管理和数据协同操作。在本演示中,我们展示了ForkBase如何极大地促进协作数据管理,以及其新颖的重复数据删除技术如何提高归档海量数据版本的存储效率。
英文摘要:
Data collaboration activities typically require systematic or protocol-based coordination to be scalable. Git, an effective enabler for collaborative coding, has been attested for its success in countless projects around the world. Hence, applying the Git philosophy to general data collaboration beyond coding is motivating. We call it Git for data. However, the original Git design handles data at the file granule, which is considered too coarse-grained for many database applications. We argue that Git for data should be co-designed with database systems. To this end, we developed ForkBase to make Git for data practical. ForkBase is a distributed, immutable storage system designed for data version management and data collaborative operation. In this demonstration, we show how ForkBase can greatly facilitate collaborative data management and how its novel data deduplication technique can improve storage efficiency for archiving massive data versions.
