An Efficient Scheme for Providing High Availability

Summary: Partition-level replication in a shared-nothing DB provides availability with minimal overhead; the secondary updates asynchronously. A hardened log server stores per-node logs; on primary failure, the secondary replays them to reach last-transaction state. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
