We consider the allocation of Virtual Arrays (VAs) in a Heterogeneous Disk Array (HDA). Each VA holds groups of related objects and datasets such as files, relational tables, which has similar performance and availability characteristics.…
Elastic computing enables dynamic scaling to meet workload demands, and Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) enhances this by providing high-throughput, low-latency network communication. However, integrating RDMA into elastic computing…
We present Hydra, a low-latency, low-overhead, and highly available resilience mechanism for remote memory. Hydra can access erasure-coded remote memory within a single-digit microsecond read/write latency, significantly improving the…
This work introduces Hybrid Sparse Attention (HySparse), a new architecture that interleaves each full attention layer with several sparse attention layers. While conceptually simple, HySparse strategically derives each sparse layer's token…
In the last decade, key-value data storage systems have gained significantly more interest from academia and industry. These systems face numerous challenges concerning storage space- and read optimization. There exists a large potential…
Skiplists are widely used for in-memory indexing in many key-value stores, such as RocksDB and LevelDB, due to their ease of implementation and simple concurrency control mechanisms. However, traditional skiplists suffer from poor cache…
This paper proposes round-hashing, which is suitable for data storage on distributed servers and for implementing external-memory tables in which each lookup retrieves at most a single block of external memory, using a stash. For data…
Distributed data structures are key to implementing scalable applications for scientific simulations and data analysis. In this paper we look at two implementation styles for distributed data structures: remote direct memory access (RDMA)…
Due to the coarse granularity of data accesses and the heavy use of latches, indices in the B-tree family are not efficient for in-memory databases, especially in the context of today's multi-core architecture. In this paper, we present PI,…
Persistent key-value (KV) stores are critical infrastructure for data-intensive applications. Leveraging high-performance Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) to enhance KV stores has gained traction. However, previous work has primarily focused on…
Modern NVMe SSDs and RDMA networks provide dramatically higher bandwidth and concurrency. Existing networked storage systems (e.g., NVMe over Fabrics) fail to fully exploit these new devices due to inefficient storage ordering guarantees.…
Stream analytics have an insatiable demand for memory and performance. Emerging hybrid memories combine commodity DDR4 DRAM with 3D-stacked High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) DRAM to meet such demands. However, achieving this promise is…
Remote Attestation (RA) allows a trusted entity (verifier) to securely measure internal state of a remote untrusted hardware platform (prover). RA can be used to establish a static or dynamic root of trust in embedded and cyber-physical…
We can use a hybrid memory system consisting of DRAM and Intel Optane DC Persistent Memory (We call it DCPM in this paper) as DCPM is now commercially available since April 2019. Even if the latency for DCPM is several times higher than…
Skiplists are used in a variety of applications for storing data subject to order criteria. In this article we discuss the design, analysis and performance of a concurrent deterministic skiplist on many-core NUMA nodes. We also evaluate the…
As storage systems become increasingly heterogeneous and complex, it adds burdens on DBAs, causing suboptimal performance even after a lot of human efforts have been made. In addition, existing monitoring-based storage management by access…
Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) has been haunted by the need of pinning down memory regions. Pinning limits the memory utilization because it impedes on-demand paging and swapping. It also increases the initialization latency of large…
Temporal information plays a crucial role in many database applications, however support for queries on such data is limited. We present an index structure, termed RD-index, to support range-duration queries over interval timestamped…

In this paper, we revisit the problem of indexing multi-dimensional data in memory for the efficient support of multi-dimensional range queries and nearest neighbor queries. This is a classic problem in main-memory databases, where there is…
