商品描述
This book covers the most essential techniques for designing and building dependable distributed systems, from traditional fault tolerance to the blockchain technology. Topics include checkpointing and logging, recovery-orientated computing, replication, distributed consensus, Byzantine fault tolerance, as well as blockchain.
This book intentionally includes traditional fault tolerance techniques so that readers can appreciate better the huge benefits brought by the blockchain technology and why it has been touted as a disruptive technology, some even regard it at the same level of the Internet. This book also expresses a grave concern on using traditional consensus algorithms in blockchain because with the limited scalability of such algorithms, the primary benefits of using blockchain in the first place, such as decentralization and immutability, could be easily lost under cyberattacks.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書涵蓋了設計和構建可靠的分散式系統所需的最基本技術,從傳統的容錯技術到區塊鏈技術。主題包括檢查點和日誌記錄、以恢復為導向的計算、複製、分散式共識、拜占庭容錯以及區塊鏈。
本書特意包含傳統的容錯技術,以便讀者能更好地理解區塊鏈技術所帶來的巨大好處,以及為何它被譽為顛覆性技術,有些人甚至將其視為與互聯網同等的重要性。本書也對在區塊鏈中使用傳統共識算法表示嚴重關切,因為這些算法的可擴展性有限,使用區塊鏈的主要好處,例如去中心化和不可變性,可能在網路攻擊下輕易喪失。
