Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media for storing and processing metadata corresponding to files are presented. The system comprises first, second, and third computing nodes. The computing nodes comprise a plurality of slices of a metadata database that is separate and independent from file storage, and each slice is configured to store metadata. The computing nodes further comprise a slice route table that indicates primary and secondary locations of each unique slice in the plurality of slices. The slice route table comprises a plurality of entries, each of which comprise a slice number corresponding to a slice in the plurality of slices of the metadata database, a primary computing node number corresponding to a primary computing node that comprises the slice and corresponds to the primary location, and a secondary computing node number corresponding to a secondary computing node that comprises the slice and corresponds to the secondary location.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media for profiling messages between multiple computing cores are presented. A first computing core generates a first query message comprising a message header and a message payload. The message header comprises a profiling bit based on a profiling periodicity parameter. The first computing core generates a first set of shadow events corresponding to the first query message. A second computing core receives the first set of shadow events, generates a timestamp for each of the shadow events based on a time source that is local to the second computing core, and determines if each of the shadow events corresponds to a receive event. The second computing core correlates, based on the determining, each of the shadow events with the first query message, and calculates a first latency of the first query message based on the timestamps of the correlated shadow events.
