Users of distributed datastores that employquorum-based replication are burdened with the choice of asuitable client-centric consistency setting for each storage operation. The above matching choice is difficult to reason about asit requires deliberating about the tradeoff between the latencyand staleness, i.e., how stale (old) the result is. The latencyand staleness for a given operation depend on the client-centricconsistency setting applied, as well as dynamic parameters such asthe current workload and network condition. We present OptCon, a novel machine learning-based predictive framework, that canautomate the choice of client-centric consistency setting underuser-specified latency and staleness thresholds given in the servicelevel agreement (SLA). Under a given SLA, OptCon predictsa client-centric consistency setting that is matching, i.e., it isweak enough to satisfy the latency threshold, while being strongenough to satisfy the staleness threshold. While manually tunedconsistency settings remain fixed unless explicitly reconfigured, OptCon tunes consistency settings on a per-operation basis withrespect to changing workload and network state. Using decisiontree learning, OptCon yields 0.14 cross validation error in predictingmatching consistency settings under latency and stalenessthresholds given in the SLA. We demonstrate experimentally thatOptCon is at least as effective as any manually chosen consistencysettings in adapting to the SLA thresholds for different usecases. We also demonstrate that OptCon adapts to variationsin workload, whereas a given manually chosen fixed consistencysetting satisfies the SLA only for a characteristic workload.
