Abstract
Methods and apparatus to provide failure detection are disclosed herein. An example method to synchronize data operations between multiple workload units in a computing device to facilitate failure detection includes identifying a number of first data operations to write data from a computing node in a first workload unit to locations that are not in a local cache of the computing node and are not in a memory of the first workload unit, the first data operations corresponding to a set of computing instructions that are assigned to the first workload unit and, when a flag in the first workload unit has been set to a first value, synchronizing the first data operations with second data operations by a second workload unit.
