Abstract
Modern cloud platforms have begun to “embrace inconsistency” for reasons of scalability. Yet consistency guarantees are at the core of security and reliability and if we are ever to host medical records or banking records in cloud settings, clearly will be required. This talk will look at the reasons for the trend, and some reasons to believe that researchers should be able to overcome the underlying issues.
