Abstract
The technologies described herein are generally directed toward maintaining data coherence after an updating node fails during an update. According to an embodiment, a system can comprise a processor and a memory that can enable performance of operations including, based on first updating activity by first updating equipment, locking a portion of a data structure for updates with a lock, where the first updating equipment has been determined to have abnormally ceased the first updating activity, resulting in an update activity failure. The operations can further include receiving, by the computing equipment, from second updating equipment, an indication of the update activity failure, during second updating activity of the portion. Further, the operations can include, based on the indication, reconciling, by the computing equipment, the second updating activity and the update activity failure.
