Abstract
One example method includes performing replication operations and/or failure recovery operations for replication operations in a computing system using matrix clocks. Each node or process in a computing system is associated with a matrix clock that reflects streams required and/or available at the source and destination nodes. As the replication operation is performed, the matrix clocks are updated. When a failure is detected or when insufficient streams are available, the nodes may be throttled until sufficient streams are available. The matrix clocks facilitate a recovery line such that replication can resume when sufficient streams are available.
