Using Virtualization Technology for Fault-Tolerant Replication in LAN
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present an architecture and an algorithm for Byzantine faulttolerant state machine replication. Our algorithm explores the advantages of virtualization to reliably detect and tolerate faulty replicas, allowing the transformation of Byzantine faults into omission faults. Our approach reduces the total number of physical replicas from 3f+1 to 2f+1. Our approach is based on the concept of twin virtual machines, where there are two virtual machines in each physical host, each one acting as a failure detector of its twin.

Byzantine fault tolerant (BFT) replication is commonly associated with the overhead of 3f +1 replicas to handle f faults. We believe this large resource demand is one of the key reasons why BFT replication is not commonly applied. We present Spare, an approach that harnesses virtualization support as typically found in cloud-computing environments to reduce the resource demand of BFT replicatio...
