Abstract
One example method includes receiving a write request that includes a data structure version to be written, wherein the data structure version is associated with a unique identifier, storing the data structure version in association with the unique identifier, receiving a read request for a most recent version of the data structure and, when the stored data structure version is not the most recent version of the data structure, examining respective unique identifiers of each of a group of other stored data structure versions to determine which stored data structure version is the most recent. Finally, the example method includes returning the most recent data structure version, notwithstanding that one or more other data structure versions existed at the time that the read request was received.
