Abstract
In various embodiments a computer-implemented method for managing use of a shared compression dictionary in a distributed database environment. The method includes determining that a given version of the shared compression dictionary should be designated as a current primary version of the shared compression dictionary. The method also includes receiving, from a client device, first write data compressed with a previous primary version of the shared compression dictionary and in response to receiving the first write data, transmitting, to the client device, the current primary version of the shared compression dictionary and an instruction to compress new write data with the current primary version of the shared compression dictionary. Additionally, the method includes receiving, from the client device, a second write data compressed with the current primary version of the shared compression dictionary and storing the second write data in a database.
