A method of replicating changes to a dataset includes receiving from a client a request for an operation on the dataset, dynamically selecting from a plurality of replication assurance policies a selected replication assurance policy for the operation, the selected replication assurance policy determining a selected assurance level, wherein the selection is based on at least one of an operation criteria or a connection criteria, submitting, to a first replica of the dataset, a command comprising the operation, and reporting to the client the result of the operation according to the selected assurance level.

Method, server and system for criteria-based assured replication

In a directory service, a sync request requesting changes to a dataset is received from a sync client, the sync request comprising a token, and sync requests containing tokens are sent to first and second directory servers. Changes are returned by the directory servers with tokens, and the changes are returned to the sync client with a unified token. In embodiments, the changes returned to the sync client are new to the sync client. Also disclosed is a method where a request for new changes to a dataset is received from a sync client, the request including a token, and a response that contains a token and changes that are new to the sync client is returned.

Method, System and apparatus for synchronizing changes in a directory service

Disclosed are methods of synchronizing changes in a directory service, comprising receiving a sync request comprising a token from a sync client and returning a response to the sync client comprising a token and changes. Embodiments include collecting and returning changes that are new to the sync client, collecting and returning changes from first and second directory servers, and returning a unified token. The changes may include changes to a dataset that is partitioned over first and second directory servers, and the partitioning may include entry-balancing. Also disclosed are embodiments of a directory service comprising first and second directory servers, each comprising a change set with changes, and a proxy server configured to collect and send changes in the change sets that are new to a sync client, and proxy server and a directory server for use in synchronizing changes in a directory service.
