Hi guys, It's looking like Plone/ZODB would need too much modification and testing at the current time to move in to P2P. The most promising environment in our research so far are frameworks built on the Squeak language which is used by the OpenCobalt project (a P2P collaborative 3D world).

I think you're right that you can think of ZODB as little more than a transactional key-value store. It would be very cool to find a way to implement a DHT-based ZODB storage, but here is your challenge: 1. Each ZODB thread has its own cache of objects. Each cache must be invalidated appropriately. This cache is the key to ZODB speed, but historically, it has also been a major source of bugs. 2. The BTrees used in catalogs are very sensitive to consistency violations, so unless you are going to redesign the catalog, there is no room for error in transactional consistency. 3. MVCC support is required, meaning that database reads must see old data, not see newly committed data, until transaction boundaries. 4. Also due to the catalog, latency is a major concern. It is not uncommon for a catalog request to read the state of 10,000 objects or more, and you don't want that request to take more than a few seconds. Memcached can help here.

Re: [ZODB-Dev] Plone in P2P using Zope over DHT
I'm not very optimistic about this I'm afraid. First the problems with using Plone: * Plone relies heavily on its in ZODB indexes of all content (portal_catalog). This means that every edit will change lots of objects (without versioning ~15-20, most of which are in the catalogue). * At least with archetypes a content object's data is spread over multiple objects. (This should be better with Dexterity, though you will still have multiple objects for locking and workflow) * If you use versioning you'll see ~ 100 objects changed in an edit. * Even loading the front-page will take a long time - In my experiments writing an amazon s3 backend for ZODB the extra latency of fetching each object was really noticeable. But I'm not sure even a simpler ZODB CMS would be a good fit for a p2p DHT: * ZODB is transactional using two phase commit. With p2p latencies, these commits will be horribly slow - all clients storing changed objects would need to participate in the transaction. * Each client's object cache will need to know about invalidations, I don't see any way of supplying these from a DHT. I expect you'd have more success storing content items as single content objects / pages in the DHT and then generating indexes based on that. You'll need some way of storing parent - child relationships between the content objects too, as updating a single list of children object will be incredibly difficult to get right in a distributed system.

Something which may be worthwhile and give you an impression what the storage backend does for a common operation would be to instrument the ZODB code a bit. Just look at the current FileStorage and add a few log()s into its load/store methods. Maybe there are other methods of interest, too. Hooking this shouldn't take long. Then I suggest you generate (or maybe you already have) a well-sized plone to test on. Perform a typical request on a site and see what the storage is doing. This will give you a solid idea what the storage has to do. My guess (and I mostly infer this from the zodb code I've looked at) is that you can get many storage read requests for something like searching the catalog. I guess this will happen, because you get a load() call for each BTree bucket that you are traversing. Maybe I am totally wrong of course :) However, instrumenting the storage will show. You might also find there are certain hotspots (like the catalog). Depending on their size you could make your users download these completely from the cloud before being able to use them. This would reduce the number of small randomly-seeking requests a lot. Another thing you need to consider is implementing the transaction functionality. I'm not sure how to do something like this in the cloud or even if it's possible at all (given certain performance limitations). And finally, my experiences using P2P is that it takes a while to build up speed for a certain download. And client uplinks are not as fast your typical web server's uplink. Also firewalls seem to cause problems sometimes (maybe workable with NAT punching?). Maybe all of this is feasible in your situation, but this depends heavily on your requirements, usage and goals. Doing some fast prototyping and contacting authors who already wrote papers (or better implementations) is probably the best way to get solid a solid idea. -Matthias ___ For more information about ZODB, see the ZODB Wiki: http://www.zope.org/Wikis/ZODB/ ZODB-Dev mailing list - ZODB-Dev@zope.org https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zodb-dev

Re: [ZODB-Dev] Plone in P2P using Zope over DHT
I have looked at NEO which is the closest thing I've found to the answer, in fact NEO is why I felt Plone was the best choice of CMS to inquire further about The problem is that it uses SQL for its indexing queries (they quote "NoSQL" as meaning "Not only SQL"). SQL cannot work in P2P space, but can be made to work on server-clusters. We intend not to have any machines in our network other than the users computers running the P2P application. So we would need to know exactly what kinds of querying ZODB expects to be available in its interface to the storage layer. DHT's can be slow for the first read but cache locally after that.

I mean P2P as in using a DHT (distributed hash table) for its storage layer so that it can run in a network composed only of the client users with no web-server, the same way that the file-sharing programs such as azzureus and aMule work.

No idea what "P2P" means to you in particular. The ZODB is a mandatory requirement for Plone as storage layer. You may work on storage layer implementation for the ZODB fulfilling your requirements (similar to Relstorage implementing a RDBMS backend for the ZODB). I have strong doubts that a "P2P" or (cloud-ish) backend is feasible as the ZODB is ACID compatible and ACID is basically something you can not achieve in the cloud or better spoken in a highly distributed environment. - -aj - -- ZOPYX Limited | zopyx group Charlottenstr. 37/1 | The full-service network for Zope & Plone D-72070 Tübingen| Produce & Publish www.zopyx.com | www.produce-and-publish.com - E-Publishing, Python, Zope & Plone development, Consulting -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQGUBAEBAgAGBQJNIrFoAAoJEADcfz7u4AZjK7ELwKXWquWP4BuqEq5BNivjEQOy F5FQZNSzTHtNlSLOjFNbQetcXm7ESRAUw/7Vu2o8Ds4a+J8KUMM8VkRVqr0I8oqm EbjlDpD9m+tIWQXH5YhKP75r/QzjZ9iT1XrnZIH5q3nFyY48zCpJs1yrCGcIYORd xJasPTjcWshArzT6lTu4XRnPNIZmyvw5JgW3LDu3SrlFOLj+NRY+wqVlXAk52SNK YxwMvEn9LfKA6yL20uhUk7KkYeoQP0OZeQISV33SVjKLEMKU0UQYZTABfrcfmJgp hlMiU652JUsn1VcQD+6w9TXJ0dOLpBgVWtuE8sIxviSZIu57UIbUdGOIEuNTXAt/ Mlnvp6W9gXGPLY7iU8QAeWZpPa4j+Nal+kFqVJo98ZI0I4dTo/cLd9H6OcECNbUF LLsUHYE6uI/uOKlavM+uKLERBtoleKNYxu0EaF/ZtXSvGwiSQv1Wp+s6TgHoGLBR Mq2THaTGogmHUOlAvJ7drk2oJP5UpYo= =nQC8 -END PGP SIGNATURE- <>___ For more information about ZODB, see the ZODB Wiki: http://www.zope.org/Wikis/ZODB/ ZODB-Dev mailing list - ZODB-Dev@zope.org https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zodb-dev
