Abstract
As distributed key-value store systems become integral to modern data management, optimizing replica selection plays a pivotal role in enhancing system performance and reliability. This post-graduate student project proposes a Solidity-based solution for Accelerated Information Dissemination (AID) to streamline the process in distributed key-value store systems. The project addresses the limitations of existing systems by introducing a decentralized and efficient approach to replica selection.
Existing System
The current landscape of distributed key-value store systems faces challenges in the terms of latency, reliability, and scalability in the replicas. Traditional approaches rely on centralized decision-making, leading to bottlenecks and potential single points of failure.
Proposed System
The proposed system leverages Solidity, a smart contract language on the Ethereum blockchain, to implement a decentralized selection algorithm. AID introduces a dynamic and responsive approach that utilizes blockchain’s transparency and immutability to enhance the security and efficiency of the selection process.
