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. During the execution of the set of nodes various nodes may become stale or otherwise obtain a state that is inconsistent with at least one other node of the data replication group. A catch up algorithm may be employed in which a set of teachers is initialized, the various node which may be stale may select a teacher from the set of teachers and perform learning operations. This process may be repeated until the state of the various nodes is current with at least one other node of the data replication group.
