Abstract
In accordance with disclosed embodiments, a shared log system includes a sequencer that receives a source object and a snapshot time reference, where the source object is used to generate data for a destination object. The sequencer uses the snapshot time to determine whether the data state of the source object is current with respect to the snapshot time, to assess correctness of the generated data relative to the snapshot time.
