Description
Summary:Database consistency is one of the major issues in replicated and distributed database environment. Data replications in distributed systems have been studied extensively for many years. It is quickly becoming a critical tool for providing high availability, survivability and high performance for replicated database. However, to provide useful replication one has to solve the non-trivial problem of maintaining data consistency between all replicas. The existing replication control mechanism can be categorized into two spectrums: the logical design for the replicated nodes and its transaction management mechanism. These two spectrums give a major impact to the performance and the consistency of replicated database.
