Abstract

Data replication groups may be used to store data in a distributed computing environment. The data replication groups may include a set of nodes executing a consensus protocol to maintain data durably. In order to increase the speed of provisioning, a pool of data replication groups may be maintained. When a request is received a data replication group may be selected from the pool, removed from the pool, and associated with the request. Furthermore, a replacement data replication group may be provisioned and added to the pool.
