Well, communications are still unreliable and you really have to use proper distributed algorithms to solve that if you want to keep consistency, there is no way around it.
- burntsushi 9y agoIt seems like a pretty simple solution works in this particular design space: the client keeps asking for updates and keeps pushing updates to the central server.
- zzzcpan 9y agoI think we are talking past each other. It is simple to synchronize things, very simple, but only without centralized coordination. In distributed systems any coordination complicates things a lot and I don't think it's even possible to make simpler solution with coordination if there exists one without it.
