Abstract

Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for quorum-based replication of data records. In one embodiment, a read request for reading a record is received from a user node on a replica node of a cluster of replica nodes. The record is then determined not committed on the replica node. In response to the determination, an update message indicative of whether the number of replica nodes on which the record is durable exceeds a threshold is received on the replica node. In response to the number of replica nodes exceeds the threshold, a value of the record on the replica node is transmitted to the user node.
