Efficient Reconciliation and Flow Control - PWL London @ Monzo

Tim Ruffles presents:

Efficient Reconciliation and Flow Control for Anti-Entropy Protocols https://www.cs.cornell.edu/home/rvr/papers/flowgossip.pdf
The ideas in this paper influenced systems at Amazon, and beyond, e.g. Cassandra, Ringpop from Uber (used in Temporal).

Abstract

The paper shows that anti-entropy protocols can process
only a limited rate of updates, and proposes and evaluates a
new state reconciliation mechanism as well as a flow control
scheme for anti-entropy protocols.
