Kademlia: A Peer-to-peer Information System Based on the XOR Metric
Lookup Problem • Given a data item X stored at some dynamic set of nodes in the system, find it. • This problem is an important one in many distributed systems, and is the critical common problem in P2P systems.
DHT • Distributed hash table • Skip-list like routing: Chord • Multiple Dimensions routing: CAN • Tree like routing: Kademlia
Kademlia • For each nodes, files, key words, deploy SHA-1 hash into a 160 bits space. • For eMule, deploy a MD4 digestion(128 bits). • Every node maintains information about files, key words “close to itself”. • The closeness between two objects measure as their bitwise XOR interpreted as an integer. • D(a, b) = a XOR b
Key words in Kademlia Hash of “break” only!
Kademlia Binary Tree • Treat node as leaves in a binary tree. • Start from root, for any given node, dividing the binary tree into a series of successively lower subtree that don’t contain the node.
Kademlia Binary Tree Subtrees of a node 0011……
Kademlia Binary Tree • For any given node, it keeps touch at least one node (up to k) of its subtrees. (if there is a node in that tree.) Each subtree possesses a k-bucket. • Every node keeps a list of (IP, Port, Node id) triples, and (key, value) tuples for further exchanging information with others.
Kademlia Search When node 0011…… wants search 1110……
Kademlia Protocol • PING: to test whether a node is online • STORE: instruct a node to store a key • FIND_NODE: takes an ID as an argument, a recipient returns k closest nodes from its current knowledge. • FIND_VALUE: behaves like FIND_NODE, unless the recipient received a STORE for that key, it just the stored value.
Kademlia Lookup • The most important is to locate the k closest nodes to some given node ID. • Kademlia employs a recursive algorithm for node lookups. The lookup initiator starts by picking a nodes from its closest non-empty k-bucket. • The initiator then sends parallel, asynchronous FIND_NODE to the α nodes it has chosen. • α is a system-wide concurrency parameter, such as 3.
Kademlia Lookup • the initiator resends the FIND_NODE to nodes it has learned about from previous RPCs. • If a round of FIND_NODES fails to return a node any closer than the closest already seen, the initiator resends the FIND_NODE to all of the k closest nodes it has not already queried. • The lookup could terminate when the initiator has queried and gotten responses from the k closest nodes it has seen.
Kademlia Keys Store • To store a (key,value) pair, a participant locates the k closest nodes to the key and sends them STORE RPCs. • Additionally, each node re-publishes (key,value) pairs as necessary to keep them alive, • For Kademlia’s current application (file sharing), we also require the original publisher of a (key,value) pair to republish it every 24 hours. Otherwise, (key,value) pairs expire 24 hours after publication.
P2P Open Questions • Operation cost • As low as other popular protocols • Look up, O(logN) • Join or leave, O(log2N) • Fault tolerance and concurrent change • Handle well, for the use of k-buckets • Proximity routing • Kademlia can choose from α nodes that has lower latency • Indexing and keyword search
