CoTra: Towards Efficient and Scalable Distributed Vector Search with RDMA
Summary: CoTra: distributed ANN/vector search over RDMA, exploiting approximate/asynchronous execution to break the compute–communication tension. Clustered partitioning + task push/batching enable collaborative search that scales to 9.8–13.4x on 16 machines and beats baselines at high recall. (summarized by gpt-5.4-mini on Apr 11 2026)
