Abstract
A first compute server of a distributed cloud computing network executes an application that controls reading and writing access to associated persistent data. The first compute server performs a write operation to the persistent data on local storage, notifies a piece of code that controls outgoing messages from the application that the write operation is pending, and transmits write information for the write operation to a set of other compute servers. If an acknowledgement of the write information is received from a quorum of the other compute servers, the application notifies the piece of code that the write operation is confirmed. Periodically the write information is transmitted to an external storage system. If a confirmation that the write information has been written is received from the storage system, the first compute server transmits a write confirmation notice to the other compute servers, which can then delete the write information.
