Weighted rendezvous hashing
Abstract:
A device may be configured to store virtual identifier information indicating virtual identifiers associated with servers. The virtual identifier information may associate a quantity of virtual identifiers with each respective server of the servers based on a weight associated with the respective server. The device may receive an object identifier identifying an object to be processed by at least one of the servers. The device may calculate hash values for the virtual identifiers based on the object identifier. The device may determine a virtual identifier associated with a hash value that satisfies a particular condition. The device may select a server associated with the virtual identifier. The device may send an instruction to the server to process the object.
