Abstract

A data processing system may store a data set at a plurality of data centers. The data centers and hosts within the data centers may, for example, be organized according to a multi-tiered ring arrangement. A hashing arrangement may be used to implement the ring arrangement to select the data centers and hosts where the writing and reading of the data sets occurs. Version histories may also be written and read a the hosts and may be used to evaluate causal relationships between the data sets after the reading occurs.
