Abstract
A method of bridging a first database and a second database. The method includes maintaining a state machine representing a state of a virtual node in the first database, wherein the state of the virtual node conforms to a native protocol for native nodes of the first database, said native protocol of the first database differing from a foreign protocol of the second database. The method further includes receiving an incoming message for the virtual node from one of the native nodes according to the native protocol, and based on the incoming message, accessing the second database. The method further includes updating the state of the virtual node based on the incoming message according to the native protocol, and based on the state of the virtual node as updated, sending an outgoing message to one or more of the native nodes according to the native protocol.
