Fluent
Fluent is a fully managed, data-first computation framework under development that U.C. Berkeley RISE Lab. There are two main components in Fluent.
The first is a key-value store based on prior open-source work from the RISE lab (fka Anna). The Fluent KVS is an elastic, cloud-native storage engine that uses coordination-avoiding techniques and asynchronous message passing to provide very low latency. You can find more information about running and using the Fluent KVS in the kvs directory.
The second component is a data-centric programming framework, built on top of the Anna KVS. The goal of the programming framework is to provide users a general-purpose API and runtime for executing programs on data stored in the Anna KVS. Users are able to submit arbitrary code or containers for execution, and we plan to support performance SLOs for function execution.
