On the Influence of PRNGs on Data Distribution
2012
The amount of digital information produced grows rapidly and constantly. Storage systems use clustered architectures designed to store and process this information efficiently. Their use introduces new challenges in storage systems development, like load-balancing and data distribution. A variety of randomized solutions handling data placement issues have been proposed and utilized. However, to the best of our knowledge, there has not yet been a structured analysis of the influence of pseudo random number generators (PRNGs) on the data distribution. In the first part of this paper we consider Consistent Hashing [1] as a combination of two consecutive phases: distribution of bins and distrib…
