Abstract
A method for performing distributed data replication from a source cluster of nodes to a destination cluster of nodes includes electing a master file management instance and slave file management instances for the source cluster of nodes, identifying a set of files to be replicated, assigning the identified set of files to the master file management instance and the slave file management instances, processing the identified set of files by the master file management instance and the slave file management instances and performing replication on the processed set of files by file replication instances corresponding to the master and slave file management instances at the source cluster of nodes.
