This project is working to advance the state of the art in the design of storage systems for large-scale websites like Facebook, Uber, and Google that are an integral part of our lives. The project aims to benefit society by making such websites faster, easier to program, and less expensive to build. It will produce research papers that guide industrial efforts and future researchers. It will also produce and release working prototypes of new storage designs that industrial practitioners and other researchers can build off of or compare against. The project will advance discovery and broaden participation by involving undergraduates from the University of Southern California and institutions that serve under-represented groups in research experiences, training graduate students, developing curriculum that integrates teaching and research, and by conducting outreach to K-12 students at schools that serve under-represented groups.The goal of this project is to understand the fundamental tradeoffs between power and performance. The scope of power properties includes consistency models and transactions. The scope of performance properties includes latency, throughput, and their combination. To understand what is not possible we will formulate, conjecture, and attempt to prove impossibility results. To demonstrate what is possible we will design new systems that touch the boundary of our impossibility results. We will implement our designs and publish the implementations publicly. We will evaluate our implementation at large scale to validate they provide the claimed properties and to quantify their benefits and overheads.

该项目正在努力推动用于大规模网站的存储系统设计中的最新技术，例如Facebook，Uber和Google，这是我们生活中不可或缺的一部分。 该项目旨在通过更快，更易于编程和构建便宜的速度来使社会受益。 它将生产研究论文，以指导工业努力和未来的研究人员。 它还将生产和释放工业从业人员和其他研究人员可以与之建立或比较的新存储设计的工作原型。 该项目将通过参与南加州大学的本科生以及为不足的研究经验中的代表性群体，培训研究生培训，开发课程，通过教学和研究整合的课程，并向学校竞争不足的小组的学校的K-12学生进行宣传，从而使他们的竞争不足的竞争能力与善于竞争之间的贸易界，该项目将在研究经验，培训研究生培训和研究课程中，开发课程，从而促进了该项目的范围。功率属性的范围包括一致性模型和交易。 性能属性的范围包括延迟，吞吐量及其组合。要了解什么不可能的，我们将提出，猜想并试图证明不可能的结果。为了证明什么可能，我们将设计触及不可能结果边界的新系统。我们将实施我们的设计并公开发布实现。我们将大规模评估我们的实施方式，以验证它们提供索取的财产并量化其福利和间接费用。
