A simple synchronization algorithm

6/5/2017

This webpage explains the concept of synchronizing algorithms, specifically focusing on sync algorithms used in distributed systems. It starts by discussing the challenges of maintaining consistency and coherence in distributed systems where multiple nodes or processes need to stay in sync. The article then introduces different sync algorithms, such as the Lamport timestamps and the vector clock algorithm, and explains how they work to ensure that all nodes have a consistent view of the system. It also touches on some practical considerations and trade-offs when choosing a sync algorithm. Overall, the article provides a helpful overview of sync algorithms and their significance in distributed systems.
