Abstract

Replication is a widely used technique for providing high-availability and fault-tolerance of critical services. Multithreaded implementation of services presents a challenge to the replication technique, since managing the execution order of the threads on different replication sites for consistency purpose is not a trivial task. This paper presents a middleware that transparently support reliable web services built on active replication. The middleware is responsible for maintaining the consistency of the replicas’ states. It also handles issues relating to multithreaded implementation of web services.
