I prepared a one-pager review for Eric Brewer’s **article **(paid on IEEE Library) on CAP theorem a while ago, now publishing it.
Review: “CAP: Twelve Years Later: How the Rules Have Changed”
In this article, Eric Brewer talks about how the distributed systems design paradigms and approaches are evolved since early 1990s when the CAP theorem coined by himself. According to the article, consistency (C), high availability (A) and partition tolerance (P) concepts slightly changed meanwhile and the notion of having at most of “2 of these 3” is no longer strict as it was before and can be seen as misleading today. He later on points out the connection between ACID–BASE philosophies and CAP theorem in distributed systems. Later on mostly his argument revolves around handling partitions so that a well CA (consistency-availability) can be achieved and work at a fine granularity by giving up only a bit. Read More →
Bölümde (Bilkent Bilgisayar Müh.) bitirme projesi olarak da yaptığımız ollaa ile bölümün bu dönemki en iyi bitirme projesi ödülüne layık görüldük. Hepimizin şimdiden bu projeden çok şey öğrendik. Başta takım arkadaşlarım cesur coder’lar Uğur Kumru ve Ecem Ünal’a, hocamız Prof. Fazlı Can’a ve yardımlarıyla emeği geçen diğer herkese teşekkürü buradan borç bilirim. Bu da böyle bir hatıramız olsun. :)
