Cool project!
How do you generate the timestamps for last writer wins? What happens if there is a tie?
Just my 2c: if I see a distributed database, the first question I ask is how it handles distributed transactions. Perhaps this topic should be higher on your FAQ, currently it is the 21st question.
- bonesmoses 1y agoThere's an option in the Postgres configuration named "track_commit_timestamp" that does this automatically. It's required to be enabled when using LWW as the conflict resolution model. If there's a tie, the node with the highest node number wins.
