RAMP up your distributed transactions
Last time [https://www.bartoszsypytkowski.com/hash-partitions/] we were talking about partitioning in distributed systems. Now it's a time to talk about protocols that allow us to establish transactional reads and writes across partitions - which could be…
HyParView: cluster membership that scales
In the past I've made an introduction to different layers of cluster protocols and presented SWIM [https://www.bartoszsypytkowski.com/make-your-cluster-swim/]: a simple and intuitive approach to cluster membership, popularized by success of tools such…
Make your cluster SWIM
In this blog post we'll cover how systems form clusters, what clusters actually are and what are their responsibilities. We'll also present different protocols responsible to serve the needs of the clusters with a various tradeoffs…
[C#] Using gRPC with custom serializers
I've decided to write this post, because I've noticed a little lack of gRPC-related knowledge in .NET community. For those of you who are not familiar with it - gRPC [http://www.grpc.io/] is a…
