Abstract
Systems and methods for search result replication in a search head cluster of a data aggregation and analysis system. An example method may comprise maintaining a replication count corresponding to how many replicas of a result of a particular map-reduce search exist in a search head cluster comprising a plurality of search heads that are each configured to enable them to manage a reduce phase of a map-reduce search, determining that the replication count is less than a target replication count, selecting, based the determining, a target search head from the search head cluster to receive a replica of the search result, initiating a replication of the search result from a source search head in the search head cluster to the selected target search head, receiving an indication that the replication is complete, and based on receiving the indication, increasing the replication count corresponding to the search result.
