Abstract
Disclosed is a method and system for upgrading a local session between a server and a client in a Coordination Service to a global session on-demand. Exemplary embodiments may include (i) determining whether a type of transaction received at a server in a group of servers from a client is a first transaction type or a second transaction type, (ii) responsive to a determination that the transaction is first transaction type, creating a local session between the server and the client for executing the transaction, wherein the transactions of first transaction type do not require a vote from each of the servers in the group for executing; and (iii) responsive to a determination that the transaction is the second transaction type, converting the existing local session to a global session, wherein the transactions of second transaction type require a vote from each of the servers in the group for executing.
