- Implement Nil-externalized interface on Raft https://github.com/taabishm2/raft-kv-store. A nil-externalizing (nilext) interface may modify state within a storage system but does not externalize its effects or system state immediately to the outside world. As a result, a storage system can apply nilext operations lazily, improving performance.
- Evaluate correctness of implementation
- Evaluate performance difference because of deferred execution
- Conclude which workloads exploit Nil-Ext interface and which don’t.
