使用HashRing实现python下的一致性hash

摘要: 使用HashRing实现python下的一致性hash

from hash_ring import *
memcache_servers = ['192.168.0.246:11212',
'192.168.0.247:11212',
'192.168.0.249:11212']
ring = HashRing(memcache_servers)
server = ring.get_node('my_key')
print server
server = ring.get_node('my_keysdfsdf')
print server

有了一致性hash，你可以最小程度的减轻因为增加或者是减少服务器带来的大量的缓存MISS

在Memcached、Key-Value Store、Bittorrent DHT、LVS中都采用了Consistent Hashing算法，可以说Consistent Hashing 是分布式系统负载均衡的首选算法
