Syndicate: virtual cloud storage through provider composition

| Abstract | Syndicate is a storage service that builds a coherent storage abstraction from already-deployed commodity components, including cloud storage, edge caches, and dataset providers. It is unique in that it not only offers consistent semantics across multiple providers, but also offers a flexible programming model to applications so they can define their own provider-agnostic storage functionality. In doing so, Syndicate fully decouples applications from providers, allowing applications to choose them based on how well they enhance data locality and durability, instead of whether or not they provide requisite features. This paper presents the motivation and design of Syndicate, and gives the results of a preliminary evaluation showing that separating storage functionality from provider implementation is feasible in practice. |
