Abstract

A log-structured distributed storage system may implement individual write quorums. Log records may be sent to different storage nodes of a quorum set storing data for a storage client sufficient to satisfy a write quorum requirement. For each log record, acknowledgments from storage nodes are received, and a determination is made whether the write quorum requirement is satisfied for the log record. Different log records may be maintained at different storage nodes, and still satisfy the write quorum requirement such that in some embodiments no one storage node may maintain all of the log records sent to storage nodes in the quorum set.
