Multi-replica asynchronous table replication

Abstract:

Technologies are described for performing replication within a database environment. Where a database transaction is replicated at multiple replica nodes, a replica node is selected as a coordinator replica node for the transaction. The other replica node or nodes are designated as follower replica nodes for the transaction. A follower replica node sends the coordinator replica node a precommit notification when the follower replica node has precommitted the transaction. The coordinator replica node sends the follower replica node a postcommit notification to commit the transaction when the transaction has been precommitted by all of the replica nodes to which the transaction is to be replicated.
