New Directions in Cloud Programming

Summary: Introduces PACT (Program semantics, Availability, Consistency, Targets of optimization) as a unifying abstraction to expose and manage distributed tradeoffs. Advocates lifting existing code to a declarative PACT layer and a multi-stage compiler that emits human-readable, hand-tunable code for gradual migration and research.
