Polystyrene: the Decentralized Data Shape That Never Dies

Résumé

Decentralized topology construction protocols organize nodes along a predefined topology (e.g. a torus, ring, or hypercube). Such topologies have been used in many contexts ranging from routing and storage systems, to publish-subscribe and event dissemination. Since most topologies assume no correlation between the physical location of nodes and their positions in the topology, they do not handle catastrophic failures well, in which a whole region of the topology disappears. When this occurs, the overall shape of the system typically gets lost. This is highly problematic in applications in which overlay nodes are used to map a virtual data space, be it for routing, indexing or storage. In this paper, we propose a novel decentralized approach that maintains the initial shape of the topology even if a large (consecutive) portion of the topology fails. Our approach relies on the dynamic decoupling between physical nodes and virtual ones enabling a fast reshaping. For instance, our results show that a 51,200-node torus converges back to a full torus in only 10 rounds after 50% of the nodes have crashed. Our protocol is both simple and flexible and provides a novel form of collective survivability that goes beyond the current state of the art.
