Abstract

Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems and methods for maintaining coherency between different entities in a distributed system. A coherency module automatically detects a change in state in a first entity, wherein the change in state relates to a change in functional code in the first entity. A synchronization message is transmitted to a second entity to synchronize data in the second entity with data in the first entity as a result of the change in state. The second entity is configured to synchronize the data in the second entity with the data in the first entity after receiving the synchronization message.
