Technical Examples

A hybrid quorum/consensus and primary-backup fault-tolerance model in an object-based distributed data storage system. When a primary manager fails, a hierarchy of network entities is established in which a group of realm managers first authorizes a failure-handling event through quorum/consensus and a backup manager (for the failing primary manager) then executes the decision of the quorum of realm managers. The realm managers, operating by consensus, determine whether (a) the primary manager can indeed be asserted to be down, and (b) whether there is a quorum of realm managers in agreement on this decision. If both are true, a master realm manager instructs the backup manager to proceed to execute the necessary steps to become the primary manager and function as the primary until the original primary manager is brought back into service. The hybrid fault-tolerance approach handles both single unit failures and network partitions in a unified way, without creating a single cluster out of the fault domain.
