Quiz 1: Homework 4

Q1. A Cassandra deployment with 6 (N1 through N6) nodes across three racks: N1 and N6 are in rack 1; N2 and N5 in rack 2; N3 and N4 in rack 3. The Cassandra ring has the nodes in the following clockwise order: N1, N2, N3, N4, N5, N6. The NetworkTopologyStrategy is attempting to place 2 replicas of a given key. The first replica is placed by the partitioner at N3. The second replica will be placed at node: ( )

  • N4
  • N5
  • N1
  • N3

Q2. A Cassandra deployment uses the RackInferringSnitch. Two addresses 1.2.3.4 and 1.2.4.5: ( )

Q3. A Cassandra-like key-value store system uses write consistency level of size W and read level of size R. There are N replicas of each key, and N is an even integer that is large enough. You are told that to maintain the strong consistency needed by your application, all conflicting writes must be detected by at least one replica (i.e., any two sets of written replicas must overlap) and a read must return the value of the latest acknowledged write (i.e., a read replica set must overlap with every written replica set). Which of the following combinations does NOT maintain strong consistency? ( )

  • W=N/2+1, R=N/2+1
  • W=N/2+1, R=N/2-1
  • W=N/2+2, R=N/2-1
  • W=N-1; R=2

Q4. A BASE system implements implies: ( )

  • Sequential consistency
  • No consistency
  • Meaningful consistency
  • Eventual consistency

Q5. Eventual consistency does imply: ( )

  • The set of replicas is always trying to catch up and converge to the latest writes
  • All replicas of a key will reflect the same value within a time bound
  • A read will be answered eventually
  • A read from a client will return the latest written value by that client

Q6. In HBase, in order to guarantee that updates are not lost due to a crash, which of the following needs to be written before an update is added to MemStore? ( )

  • Store
  • MemStore
  • StoreFiles
  • HLog

Q7. In Cassandra, when a write comes in at a replica, it is immediately: ( )

  • Stored in memory into a Memtable
  • Stored in memory into an SSTable
  • Stored on disk into an SSTable
  • Used to directly update the key-value pair, as expected

Q8. Someone gives you an arbitrary run (execution) trace from a system that implements BASE. It is possible that this run: ( )

  • Satisfies sequential consistency
  • Satisfies per-key sequential consistency
