NWDS Talk - The Bw-Tree Key-Value Store: From Research to Production - Sudipta Sengupta

LOCATION: University of Washington, Seattle. Computer Science and Engineering Department. Paul Allen Center, Database Lab, CSE 405. ABSTRACT: The Bw-Tree is an ordered key-value store, built by layering a B-tree form access method over a cache/storage sub-system (LLAMA) that is lock-free and organizes storage in a log-structured manner. It is designed to optimize performance on modern hardware, specifically (i) multi-core processors with multi-level memory/cache hierarchy, and (ii) flash memory based SSDs with fast random reads (but inefficient random write performance). The lock-free property ensures that threads do not block and readers do not conflict with writers, thus supporting a high degree of concurrency. The log-structured storage organization is designed to work around inefficient random write performance on flash and is suitable for hard disks as well. Bw-Tree avoids “in-place updates” by prepending delta records to pages that describe page updates logically -- this harvests benefits across both memory and flash by (a) reducing cache invalidation in memory hierarchy, and (b) reducing write amplification on flash. Bw-Tree delivers sustained rapid writes by utilizing full storage write bandwidth through blind updates (i.e., writes are not slowed down by reads). It also provides first class support for flexible resource governance and rate limiting in a multi-tenant cloud setting. The Bw-Tree is shipping in three of Microsoft’s server/cloud products – as the key sequential index in SQL Server Hekaton (main memory database), as the indexing engine inside Azure DocumentDB (distributed document-oriented store), and as an ordered key-value store in Bing ObjectStore (distributed storage backend supporting multiple properties in Bing). This is joint work with Justin Levandoski and David Lomet at Microsoft Research. SPEAKER BIO: Dr. Sudipta Sengupta is Principal Research Scientist at Microsoft Research, where his work over the last nine years has spanned non-volatile memory based systems, data deduplication, storage virtualization, data center networking, and peer-to-peer systems. His work on flash memory based key-value stores ships in SQL Server Hekaton, Azure DocumentDB, and Bing ObjectStore. His research on data deduplication has been incorporated into the new primary data deduplication feature in Windows Server 2012. He designed the network topology and routing algorithms for VL2, a modern data center network that introduced foundational ideas that have since been adopted across the cloud computing industry. Previously, Dr. Sengupta spent five years at Bell Laboratories, the Research Division of Lucent Technologies. Dr. Sengupta was awarded the IEEE William R. Bennett Prize and the IEEE Leonard G. Abraham Prize for his work on oblivious routing of network traffic. At Microsoft, he received the Gold Star Award for excellence in leadership and contributions for Microsoft's long term success and the Microsoft Research Technology Transfer Award for shipping research ideas into Microsoft's products and services. At Bell Labs, he received the President's Teamwork Achievement Award for technology transfer of research into Lucent products. Dr. Sengupta is an IEEE Fellow and an ACM Distinguished Scientist. He received a Ph.D. and an M.S. from MIT (Cambridge, USA) and a B.Tech. from IIT-Kanpur (India), all in Computer Science. He was awarded the President of India Gold Medal at IIT-Kanpur for graduating at the top of his class across all disciplines. NWDS: http://nwds.cs.washington.edu/
