Abstract
Techniques for facilitating data upgrades in a distributed system are provided. In one embodiment, a first instance of a distributed application executing on a first node of a distributed system can receive a message from a second instance of the distributed application executing on a second node of the distributed system. The first instance of the distributed application can then determine, via logic included in application code generated by an interface definition language (IDL) compiler, whether the message can be natively understood. If the message cannot be natively understood, the first instance of the distributed application can invoke a translation service for translating the message.
