Abstract:

Large-scale data management is a critical problem in a distributed system such as cloud,P2P system, World Wide Web (WWW), and Data Grid. One of the effective solutions is data replicationtechnique, which efficiently reduces the cost of communication and improves the data reliability andresponse time. Various replication methods can be proposed depending on when, where, and howreplicas are generated and removed. In this paper, different replication algorithms are investigated todetermine which attributes are assumed in a given algorithm and which are declined. We provide a tabularrepresentation of important factors to facilitate the future comparison of data replication algorithms. Thispaper also presents some interesting discussions about future works in data replication by proposingsome open research challenges.

Dynamic Replication based on Firefly Algorithm in Data Grid

In data grid, using reservation is accepted to provide scheduling and service quality. Users need to have an access to the stored data in geographical environment, which can be solved by using replication, and an action taken to reach certainty. As a result, users are directed toward the nearest version to access information. The most important point is to know in which sites and distributed sy...

Improving Data Availability Using Combined Replication Strategy in Cloud Environment

As grow as the data-intensive applications in cloud computing day after day, data popularity in this environment becomes critical and important. Hence to improve data availability and efficient accesses to popular data, replication algorithms are now widely used in distributed systems. However, most of them only replicate the static number of replicas on some requested chosen sites and it is ob...

A survey of dynamic replication strategies for improving data availability in data grids

Data grid is a distributed collection of storage and computational resources that are not boundedwithin a geophysical location. It is a fast growing area of research and providing efficient data access andmaximum data availability is a challenging task. To achieve this task, data is replicated to different sites. A number of data replication techniques have been presented for data grids. All re...

Identifying Dynamic Replication Strategies for a High-Performance Data Grid

Dynamic replication can be used to reduce bandwidth consumption and access latency in high performance “data grids” where users require remote access to large files. Different replication strategies can be defined depending on when, where, and how replicas are created and destroyed. We describe a simulation framework that we have developed to enable comparative studies of alternative dynamic re...

Optorsim: A Grid Simulator for Studying Dynamic Data Replication Strategies

Computational Grids process large, computationally intensive problems on small data sets. In contrast, Data Grids process large computational problems that in turn require evaluating, mining and producing large amounts of data. Replication, creating geographically disparate identical copies of data, is regarded as one of the major optimisation techniques for reducing data access costs. In this ...
