Abstract

We propose to demonstrate iFlow, our replication-based system that supports both fast and reliable processing of data streams over the Internet. iFlow uses a low degree of replication in conjunction with detouring techniques to overcome network outages. iFlow also deploys replicas in a manner that improves performance and availability at the same time, and can cope with varying system conditions by continually migrating replicas. Based on a live network monitoring application, our demonstration will substantiate the strengths of iFlow. During the demonstration, various visual tools will provide graphical evidence of improvements with regards to availability, performance, and resource usage. To show iFlow's adaptivity, these tools will also allow us to control the demonstration situation including injecting different types of failures.
