Pedis (Parallel Redis)
What's Pedis?
Pedis is the NoSQL data store using the SEASTAR framework, compatible with REDIS. The name of Pedis is an acronym of Parallel redis, which with high throughput and low latency.
Redis is very popular data structures server. For more infomation, see here: http://redis.io/ Seastar is an advanced, open-source C++ framework for high-performance server applications on modern hardware. For more infomation, see here: http://www.seastar-project.org/
Now, the redis commands were supported by Pedis as follow:
- KEY: DEL, EXISTS, TTL, PTTL, EXPIRE, PEXPIRE
- STRING: GET, SET, DECR, INCR, DECRBY, INCRBY, APPEND, STRLEN, MGET, MSET
- LIST: LINDEX, LINSERT, LLEN, LPUSH, LPUSHX, LPOP, LRANGE, LREM, LTRIM, LSET, RPOP, RPUSH, RPUSHX
- HASH: HSET, HDEL, HGET, HLEN, HSTRLEN, HMSET, HMGET, HKEYS, HVALS, HEXISTS, HINCRBY
- SET: SADD, SMEMBERS, SISMEMBER, SREM, SDIFF, SDIFFSTORE, SINTER, SINTERSTORE, SUNION, SUNIONSTORE, SMOVE, SPOP
- SORTED SET: ZADD, ZCARD, ZCOUNT, ZINCRBY, ZRANGE, ZRANK, ZREM, ZREMRANGEBYSCORE, ZREMRANGEBYRANK, ZREVRANGE, ZREVRANGEBYSCORE, ZREVRANK, ZSCORE, ZUNIONSTORE, ZINTERSTORE
- GEO: GEOADD, GEOPOS, GEOHASH, GEODIST, GEORADIUS, GEORADIUSMEMBER
- OTHER: ECHO, PING, SELECT
Building Pedis on Ubuntu 14.04
In addition to required packages by Seastar, the following packages are required by Pedis.
Installing required packages:
sudo apt-get install libaio-dev ninja-build ragel libhwloc-dev libnuma-dev libpciaccess-dev libcrypto++-dev libboost-all-dev libxen-dev libxml2-dev xfslibs-dev
Installing GCC 4.9 for gnu++1y. Unlike the Fedora case above, this will not harm the existing installation of GCC 4.8, and will install an additional set of compilers, and additional commands named gcc-4.9, g++-4.9, etc., that need to be used explicitly, while the "gcc", "g++", etc., commands continue to point to the 4.8 versions.
# Install add-apt-repository
sudo apt-get install software-properties-common python-software-properties
# Use it to add Ubuntu's testing compiler repository
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test
sudo apt-get update
# Install gcc 4.9 and relatives
sudo apt-get install g++-4.9
# Also set up necessary header file links and stuff (?)
sudo apt-get install gcc-4.9-multilib g++-4.9-multilib
To compile Seastar explicitly using gcc 4.9, use:
git clone https://github.com/fastio/pedis.git
cd pedis
git submodule update --init --recursive
./configure.py --compiler=g++-4.9
ninja
Run Pedis
./build/release/pedis --smp 1
Benchmark
The following describe the details of the Pedis benchmark making it reproducible. The result data was generated by memtier_benchmark(https://github.com/RedisLabs/memtier_benchmark).
Latest Results(Sep. 2016)
Pedis's latency was less then 0.5ms for 99% of all requests.
