> When the set of servers changes, we would like to update the server list
> stored by clients without restarting the clients.
> Moreover, assuming that the number of clients per server is the same (in
> expectation) in the old configuration (as guaranteed by the current list
> shuffling for example), we would like to re-balance client connections across
> the new set of servers in a way that a) the number of clients per server is
> the same for all servers (in expectation) and b) there is no
> excessive/unnecessary client migration.
> It is simple to achieve (a) without (b) - just re-shuffle the new list of
> servers at every client. But this would create unnecessary migration, which
> we'd like to avoid.
> We propose a simple probabilistic migration scheme that achieves (a) and (b)
> - each client locally decides whether and where to migrate when the list of
> servers changes. The attached document describes the scheme and shows an
> evaluation of it in Zookeeper. We also implemented re-balancing through a
> consistent-hashing scheme and show a comparison. We derived the probabilistic
> migration rules from a simple formula that we can also provide, if someone's
> interested in the proof.
