Abstract

Replicated systems are commonly used to provide highly available and fault tolerant applications, based on the use of replication and recovery protocols. Traditionally, the literature has focused on replicated systems which adopt the fail-stop failure model which presents good performance levels for replicated systems managing few state. This paper points out how the crash-recovery with partial amnesia failure model presents a better accuracy for replicated systems with huge state, but how its use has the amnesia phenomenon drawback. Then, the paper analyzes this phenomenon and how to deal with it in a basic configuration using a log-based recovery approach. Analyzing after, how it is supported and managed with other replication configurations.
