DEX: Scalable Range Indexing on Disaggregated Memory
Summary: DEX: a scalable B+-tree for disaggregated memory that addresses rudimentary caching, unprincipled offloading and cross-server inconsistency via logical partitioning, lightweight client caching and cost-aware offloading to reduce remote accesses. Evaluated to beat prior art by 1.7–56.3× across cache sizes and workload skews.
