This calls for the development of efficient=0Aalgorithms to map replicas to servers at scale. We introduce a modular,=0Aopen-source consistent hashing library, called libch-placement, and use it to=0Ainvestigate design trade-offs in CPU efficiency, replica declustering, and=0Aobject sharding for replicated object placement. We identify a multiring=0Ahashing configuration that strikes a balance between all three properties. We=0Aalso demonstrate that large-scale object placement can be calculated at=0Aan aggregate rate of tens of billions of objects per second with 8,192=0Aservers. These technologies can be leveraged by large-scale storage systems=0Ato improve performance, improve reliability, and manage data placement with=0Aper-object granularity.
