Abstract
One or more techniques and/or systems are provided for dynamic data access configuration. For example, a mapping may be maintained for compute nodes of a distributed processing system. The mapping may comprise access permission assignments of at least some compute nodes to shared data segments (e.g., read access and/or write access permissions). The mapping may be updated based upon configuration changes for the distributed processing system (e.g., addition of a new compute node, failure of a compute node, granting or removal of access to a shared data segment for an existing compute node, etc.). The updated mapping may be applied to the distributed processing system during operation of the distributed processing system (e.g., access may be granted to original instances of shared data segments based upon the configuration change; compute nodes and/or the distributed processing system may be kept online and operational while applying the configuration change; etc.).
