Abstract
A system includes a plurality of servers, a control plane to determine a first partition of a plurality of devices and to determine a subset of the plurality of servers to assign as candidate servers for the first partition, and a common data store comprising a first stream and a second stream. The control plane is to store, in the first stream, a first message indicating the first partition, the candidate servers, the second stream, and a first message tag, the candidate servers elect a primary server of the first partition from the candidate servers using the first stream, and the elected primary server inserts read and write updates associated with the plurality of devices of the first partition into the second stream.
