Abstract

Node resets in a distributed environment can be disruptive due to the need to reset shared state. However, a central system can notify all other nodes asynchronously of a pending event, and then multiple nodes can use that notification to mitigate costs when it actually happens. For example, in anticipation of a first node leaving a group of nodes, a second node can reduce its cache to store the cache from the first node. Additionally, a client device can be directed to the second node so as not to interrupt a service provided to the client device by the first node.
