Evaluating Update Dissemination Strategies in Distributed Systems: A Focus on Anti-Entropy Protocol (December 2023)
Abstract
In the realm of distributed systems, efficient update dissemination stands as a critical challenge. The Anti-Entropy Protocol, a prominent strategy within epidemic protocols, strives to maintain system-wide consistency by swiftly updating or removing susceptible servers. This study investigates three primary update exchange strategies—pushing updates, pulling updates, and bidirectional pushing-pulling—emphasizing the limitations of pushing updates in contrast to the other methods.
