  • Cluster Families for Cluster Selection and Cooperative Replication
    Publication number: 20110145497
    Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed to create cluster families for cluster selection and cooperative replication. The clusters are grouped into family members of a cluster family base on their relationships and roles. Members of the cluster family determine which family member is in the best position to obtain replicated information and become cumulatively consistent within their cluster family. Once the cluster family becomes cumulatively consistent, the data is shared within the cluster family so that all copies within the cluster family are consistent.
