Sundial: Fault-tolerant Clock Synchronization for Datacenters

Hello new and old subscribers!

This week’s paper is Sundial: Fault-tolerant Clock Synchronization for Datacenters. Clock synchronization is an important primitive for distributed systems, and the paper discusses the design and implementation of clock synchronization at scale. In the process, it discusses solving problems like clock drift and failure recovery in a datacenter environment.

The paper review is best enjoyed on the blog.

Until next time,

Micah
