Abstract
An apparatus in an illustrative embodiment comprises at least one processing device that includes a processor coupled to a memory. The at least one processing device is configured to establish with a coordination service for one or more distributed applications a participant identifier for a given participant in a multi-leader election algorithm implemented in a distributed computing system comprising multiple compute nodes, the compute nodes corresponding to participants having respective participant identifiers, and to interact with the coordination service in performing an iteration of the multi-leader election algorithm to determine a current assignment of respective ones of the participants as leaders for respective processing tasks of the distributed computing system. In some embodiments, the at least one processing device comprises at least a portion of a particular one of the compute nodes of the distributed computing system, and the coordination service comprises one or more external servers.
