Virtual consensus in Delos , Balakrishnan et al. If you think of this a bit like mapping memory addresses to data in memory, then another parallel comes to mind: the virtual address space. We propose the novel abstraction of a virtual shared log (or VirtualLog). Facebook, Inc. ), OSDI’2020. What does the VirtualLog give us?

As is also the case this limitation is at the database level (especially the storage engine) rather than the hardware level. InnoDB is the storage engine that will deliver the best OLTP throughput and should be chosen for this test. . Error in Virtual User 1: mysqlexec/db server: Table 'mysql.proc' doesn't exist.
