+<div class="section" id="initialization-and-uninitialization">
+<h5><a class="toc-backref" href="#id5">Initialization and uninitialization</a></h5>
+<p>The ensemble placement policy is constructed by jvm reflection during constructing bookkeeper client. After the
+<cite>EnsemblePlacementPolicy</cite> is constructed, bookkeeper client will call <cite>#initialize</cite> to initialize the placement policy.</p>
+<p>The <cite>#initialize</cite> method takes a few resources from bookkeeper for instantiating itself. These resources include:</p>
+<ol class="arabic simple">
+<li><cite>ClientConfiguration</cite> : The client configuration that used for constructing the bookkeeper client. The implementation of the placement policy could obtain its settings from this configuration.</li>
+<li><cite>DNSToSwitchMapping</cite>: The DNS resolver for the ensemble policy to build the network topology of the bookies cluster. It is optional.</li>
+<li><cite>HashedWheelTimer</cite>: A hashed wheel timer that could be used for timing related work. For example, a stabilize network topology could use it to delay network topology changes to reduce impacts of flapping bookie registrations due to zk session expires.</li>
+<li><cite>FeatureProvider</cite>: A feature provider that the policy could use for enabling or disabling its offered features. For example, a region-aware placement policy could offer features to disable placing data to a specific region at runtime.</li>
+<li><cite>StatsLogger</cite>: A stats logger for exposing stats.</li>
+<li><cite>AlertStatsLogger</cite>: An alert stats logger for exposing critical stats that needs to be alerted.</li>

+<p>The ensemble placement policy is a single instance per bookkeeper client. The instance will be <cite>#uninitialize</cite> when

+The implementation of the ensemble placement policy will react on those changes to build new network topology. Subsequent

+<div class="section" id="network-topology">
+<h6><a class="toc-backref" href="#id7">Network Topology</a></h6>
+<p>The network topology is presenting a cluster of bookies in a tree hierarchical structure. For example, a bookie cluster
+may be consists of many data centers (aka regions) filled with racks of machines. In this tree structure, leaves
+represent bookies and inner nodes represent switches/routes that manage traffic in/out of regions or racks.</p>
+<p>For example, there are 3 bookies in region <cite>A</cite>. They are <cite>bk1</cite>, <cite>bk2</cite> and <cite>bk3</cite>. And their network locations are
+<cite>/region-a/rack-1/bk1</cite>, <cite>/region-a/rack-1/bk2</cite> and <cite>/region-a/rack-2/bk3</cite>. So the network topology will look like below:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+       root
+        |
+    region-a
+      /  \
+ rack-1  rack-2
+  /  \       \
+bk1  bk2     bk3
+</pre>
+<p>Another example, there are 4 bookies spanning in two regions <cite>A</cite> and <cite>B</cite>. They are <cite>bk1</cite>, <cite>bk2</cite>, <cite>bk3</cite> and <cite>bk4</cite>. And
+their network locations are <cite>/region-a/rack-1/bk1</cite>, <cite>/region-a/rack-1/bk2</cite>, <cite>/region-b/rack-2/bk3</cite> and <cite>/region-b/rack-2/bk4</cite>.
+The network topology will look like below:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+       root
+       /  \
+region-a  region-b
+   |         |
+ rack-1    rack-2
+  / \       / \
+bk1  bk2  bk3  bk4
+</pre>
+<p>The network location of each bookie is resolved by a <cite>DNSResolver</cite> (interface is described as below). The <cite>DNSResolver</cite>
+resolves a list of DNS-names or IP-addresses into a list of network locations. The network location that is returned
+must be a network path of the form <cite>/region/rack</cite>, where <cite>/</cite> is the root, and <cite>region</cite> is the region id representing
+the data center where <cite>rack</cite> is located. The network topology of the bookie cluster would determine the number of

+<p>By default, the network topology responds to bookie changes immediately. That means if a bookie's znode appears in  or

+instability when bookie's zookeeper registration becomes flapping. In order to address this, there is a <cite>StabilizeNetworkTopology</cite>
+which delays removing bookies from network topology if they disappear from zookeeper. It could be enabled by setting

+<p><cite>RegionAware</cite> placement policy is a hierarchical placement policy, which it chooses equal-sized bookies from regions, and

+<ul class="simple">

+<li>bookies are writable and experienced failures before</li>
+<li>bookies are readonly</li>

+<p>In <cite>RegionAware</cite> placement policy, the reads will be tried in similar following sequence as <cite>RackAware</cite> placement policy.
+There is a slight different on trying writable bookies: after trying every 2 bookies from local region, it would try
+a bookie from remote region. Hence it would achieve low latency even there is network issues within local region.</p>
