Ray: A Distributed Framework for Emerging AI Applications (2017, methodology): “ibute the shards across multiple nodes. Though our GCS implementation uses multiple Redis servers, our performance and fault tolerance requirements could also be met by existing systems like RAMCloud [35]. Lastly, Ray’s monitor tracks system component liveness and reﬂects component failures in the G”
