FASTER: An Embedded Concurrent Key-Value Store for State Management
Summary: FASTER is an embedded concurrent key-value store using a latch-free hash index and a hybrid log spanning memory and storage for fast in-place updates on update-intensive workloads. With dynamic code generation and pluggable storage back-ends, it delivers high throughput and memory-adaptive durability for cloud-edge state management. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
