Abstract
Systems and methods that provide for assignment and recovery of tokens as part of a plurality of nodes and distributed application framework/network. The assignment component assigns numbers and tasks to candidates and facilitates multiple leader election. Moreover, a recovery component can recover a token for a node that leaves the network (e.g., crashes). Such recovery component ensures consistency, wherein only one server is assigned recovery of the token and associated tasks.
