  1. The Impact of DHT Routing Geometry on Resilience and Proximity Krishna Gummadi, Ramakrishna Gummadi, Sylvia Ratnasamy, Steve Gribble, Scott Shenker, Ion Stoica Proceedings of the ACM SIGCOMM 2003

  2. Motivation • New DHTs constantly proposed • CAN, Chord, Pastry, Tapestry, Plaxton, Viceroy, Kademlia, Skipnet, Symphony, Koorde, Apocrypha, Land, ORDI … • Each is extensively analyzed but in isolation • Each DHT has many algorithmic details making it difficult to compare Goals: • Separate fundamental design choices from algorithmic details • Understand their affect reliability and efficiency

  3. Our approach: Component-based analysis • Break DHT design into independent components • Analyze impact of each component choice separately • compare with black-box analysis: • benchmark each DHT implementation • rankings of existing DHTs vs. hints on better designs • Two types of components • Routing-level : neighbor & route selection • System-level : caching, replication, querying policy etc.

  4. Outline • Routing Geometry: A fundamental design choice • Compare DHT Routing Geometries • Geometry’s impact on Resilience • Geometry’s impact on Proximity • Discussion

  5. Three aspects of a DHT design • Geometry: a graph structure that inspires a DHT design, with its exciting properties • Tree, Hypercube, Ring, Butterfly, Debruijn • Distance function: captures a geometric structure • d(id1, id2) for any two node identifiers • Algorithm: rules for selecting neighbors and routes using the distance function

  6. Chord DHT has Ring Geometry

  7. d(100, 111) = 3 Chord Distance function captures Ring 000 111 001 • Nodes are points on a clock-wise Ring • d(id1, id2) = length of clock-wise arc between ids = (id2 – id1) mod N 110 010 101 011 100

  8. Chord Neighbor and Route selection Algorithms 000 110 111 d(000, 001) = 1 001 • Neighbor selection: ith neighbor at 2idistance • Route selection: pick neighbor closest to destination 110 010 d(000, 010) = 2 101 011 100 d(000, 001) = 4

  9. One Geometry, Many Algorithms • Algorithm : exact rules for selecting neighbors, routes • Chord, CAN, PRR, Tapestry, Pastry etc. • inspired by geometric structures like Ring, Hyper-cube, Tree • Geometry : an algorithm’s underlying structure • Distance function is the formal representation of Geometry • Chord, Symphony => Ring • many algorithms can have same geometry Why is Geometry important?

  10. Insight:Geometry => Flexibility => Performance • Geometry captures flexibility in selecting algorithms • Metrics like state (# of neighbors) and efficiency (avg. number of hops) do not capture this adequately. • Flexibility is important for routing performance • Flexibility in selecting routes leads to shorter, reliable paths • Flexibility in selecting neighbors leads to shorter paths

  11. Route selection flexibility allowed by Ring Geometry 000 110 111 001 • Chord algorithm picks neighbor closest to destination • A different algorithm picks the best of alternate paths 110 010 101 011 100

  12. Neighbor selection flexibility allowed by Ring Geometry 000 111 001 • Chord algorithm picks ith neighbor at 2idistance • A different algorithm picks ith neighbor from [2i , 2i+1) 110 010 101 011 100

  13. Outline • Routing Geometry • Comparing flexibility of DHT Geometries • Geometry’s impact on Resilience • Geometry’s impact on Proximity • Discussion

  14. Geometries we compare

  15. Metrics for flexibilities • FNS: Flexibility in Neighbor Selection = number of node choices for a neighbor • FRS: Flexibility in Route Selection = avg. number of next-hop choices for all destinations • Constraints for neighbors and routes • select neighbors to have paths of O(logN) • select routes so that each hop is closer to destination

  16. logN neighbors in sub-trees of varying heights FNS = 2i-1for ithneighbor of a node Flexibility in neighbor selection (FNS) for Tree h = 3 h = 2 h = 1 000 001 010 011 100 101 110 111

  17. Flexibility in route selection (FRS) for Hypercube 110 111 • Routing to next hop fixes one bit • FRS =Avg. (#bits destination differs in)=logN/2 d(010, 011) = 3 100 101 010 011 d(010, 011) = 1 000 001 011 d(000, 011) = 2 d(001, 011) = 1

  18. Summary of our flexibility analysis How relevant is flexibility for DHT routing performance?

  19. Outline • Routing Geometry • Comparing flexibility of DHT Geometries • Geometry’s impact on Resilience • Geometry’s impact on Proximity • Discussion

  20. Analysis of Static Resilience Two aspects of robust routing • Dynamic Recovery : how quickly routing state is recovered after failures • Static Resilience : how well the network routesbefore recovery finishes • captures how quickly recovery algorithms need to work • depends on FRS Evaluation: • Fail a fraction of nodes, without recovering any state • Metric: % Paths Failed

  21. Does flexibility affect Static Resilience? Tree << XOR ≈ Hybrid < Hypercube < Ring Flexibility in Route Selection matters for Static Resilience

  22. Do sequential neighbors help?

  23. Outline • Routing Geometry • Comparing flexibility of DHT Geometries • Geometry’s impact on Resilience • Geometry’s impact on Proximity • Overlay Path Latency • Local Convergence (see paper) • Discussion

  24. Analysis of Overlay Path Latency • Goal: Minimize end-to-end overlay path latency • not just the number of hops • Both FNS and FRS can reduce latency • Tree has FNS, Hypercube has FRS, Ring & XOR have both Evaluation: • Using Internet latency distributions (see paper)

  25. Which is more effective, FNS or FRS? Plain << FRS << FNS ≈ FNS+FRS Neighbor Selection is much better than Route Selection

  26. Does Geometry affect performance of FNS or FRS? No, performance of FNS/FRS is independent of Geometry A Geometry’s support for neighbor selection is crucial

  27. Local Convergence • Property that paths to a destination from two different (but in proximity) sources converge at a nearby node. • Useful for multicast, caching/server selection. • Evaulated by measuring the number of “exit points”. • Turns outs local convergence is highly dependent on FNS but not on FRS. • It is also independent of geometry.

  28. Summary of results • FRS matters for Static Resilience • Ring has the best resilience • Both FNS and FRS reduce Overlay Path Latency • But, FNS is far more important than FRS • Ring, Hybrid, Tree and XOR have high FNS

  29. Limitations (future work) • Not considered all Geometries • Not considered other factors that might matter • algorithmic details, symmetry in routing table entries • Not considered all performance metrics

  30. Conclusions • Routing Geometry is a fundamental design choice • Geometry determines flexibility • Flexibility improves resilience and proximity • Ring has the greatest flexibility • great routing performance
