| n geo-replicated distributed data stores, the need to ensure responsiveness in the face of network partitions and processor failures results in implementations that provide only weak (so-called eventually consistent) guarantees on when data updated by one process becomes visible to another. Applications must be carefully constructed to be aware of unwanted inconsistencies permitted by such implementations (e.g., having negative balances in a bank account, or having an item appear in a shopping cart after it has been removed), but must balance correctness concerns with performance and scalability needs. Because understanding these tradeoffs requires subtle reasoning and detailed knowledge about the underlying data store, implementing robust distributed applications in such environments is often an error-prone and expensive task. |
