Abstract
A first compute server of a distributed cloud computing network receives a request from a first client device for an object to be handled by an object worker that includes a single instantiation of a piece of code that solely controls reading and writing access to the first object. A determination is made that the object worker is instantiated for the object and is currently running in the first compute server, and the piece of code processes the first request. The first compute server receives a message to be processed by the first object worker from a second compute server. The message includes a second request for the object from a second client device connected to the second compute server. The piece of code processes the message and transmits a reply to the second compute server.
