Memory state-preserving fault tolerance (MPFT) enables a running process to continue to run without disruption in spite of any failure of the underlying hardware machine or operating system, and is built on the idea of continuous virtual machine migration and epoch-based execution model. Although there has been a commercial implementation of MPFT for some time, its real-world use is not as wide-spread as expected, mainly because its serious performance penalty. In this talk, I will first go over the main limitations of existing MPFT implementations, and then describe an open-source implementation of MPFT that not only supports all basic MPFT functionalities, but also removes all of these limitations.
