Abstract
First and second pluralities of replicated state machines may execute a sequence of ordered agreements to make mutations to data stored in first and second data storage services of first and second types, respectively. First and second metadata of the mutated data stored in the first and second data storage services may then be received and stored. The first and second data storage services may then be synchronized using the received first and second metadata to determine when the data stored in the first and second data storage services have both settled after having mutated according to a predetermined agreement of the sequence of ordered agreements. A comparison of the stored first and second metadata may then be carried out when the data stored in the first data storage service and the data stored in the second data storage service have settled according to the predetermined agreement.
