Abstract
A consistent view of associations between independently replicated data objects may be provided. Data objects may be stored in separate data stores. Copies of the data stores may also store the data objects. The copies of the data stores may independently receive the data objects to be stored as part of independently replicating data stores to one or more copies of the data stores. An association can be created between objects in the different data store. If when the association is created it is determined that a referenced object is not yet stored in a copy of a data store, then both the association and the referenced object may be stored in the same data store so that the association and the referenced object are replicated together to a copy of the same data store.
