Asynchronous vs Synchronous Replication
There are broadly two strategies that can be adopted for replicating changes from the leader to its followers. These are:
Asynchronous Replication
Synchronous Replication
The two can be combined to form a hybrid strategy, sometimes called semi-synchronous replication.
Asynchronous Replication
In the leader-based replication model, there is a spectrum that defines how replication from the leader to the followers takes place. On one end of ...
