ARES
A protocol implementing an Atomic Distributed Shared Storage (ADSS) space over asynchronous fail-prone message passing network nodes, designed for erasure-coded shared distributed storage systems.
Product Information
- Description
- ARES implements an atomic distributed shared storage protocol designed for erasure-coded storage systems operating across asynchronous networks with potential node failures. The protocol creates a consistent storage abstraction where multiple distributed nodes can read and write data with atomic guarantees, ensuring all operations appear to occur in a single sequential order despite network delays and node crashes. Key features include fault tolerance through erasure coding, which allows data recovery even when some nodes fail, and support for asynchronous message passing, enabling deployment in real-world planetary-scale networks where synchronous communication cannot be assumed. This technology is particularly valuable for building reliable distributed storage systems in cloud environments, scientific computing platforms, and large-scale data repositories where consistency and availability are critical requirements.
