Abstract
A computer-implemented method of managing time consistency in a distributed computing system includes adjusting a time of a first server in the distributed computing system to a target time. The first server identifies a time offset between the target time and a time of a second server in the distributed computing system. The first server generates a computer instruction to the second server, where the computer instruction includes a time function modified by the time offset.
