Abstract

A distributed balanced tree having a plurality of nodes distributed across a plurality of servers is accessed. Version information associated with a node of the distributed balanced tree is retrieved. Validity of a lookup transaction performed on the balanced tree is determined by verifying a version value of only the leaf node accessed during the lookup operation against the retrieved version information.
