Abstract
In distributed database systems, as cluster scales grow, efficiency and availability become critical considerations. In a cluster, a common approach to high availability is using replication, but this is inefficient due to its low storage utilization. Erasure coding can provide data reliability while ensuring high storage utilization. However, due to the large number of coding and decoding operations required by the CPU, it is not suitable for some frequently updated data. In order to optimize the storage efficiency of the data in the distributed system without affecting the availability of the data, this paper proposes a data temperature recognition algorithm that can distinguish data tablets and divides data tablets into three types, cold, warm, and hot, according to the frequency of access. Combining three replicas and erasure coding technology, ER-store is proposed, a hybrid storage mechanism for different data types. At the same time, we combined the read-write separation architecture of the distributed database system to design the data temperature conversion cycle, which reduces the computational overhead caused by frequent updates of erasure coding technology. We have implemented this design on the CBase database system based on the read-write separation architecture, and the experimental results show that it can save 14.6%–18.3% of the storage space while meeting the efficient access performance of the system.
