Reaching a quorum with a number of master nodes

A system, comprising:

• a network interconnecting components of the system for exchange of data thereon;
• at least one server with a processor and instructions for the processor in a non-transitory memory;
• master nodes comprising a first master node and a second master node, wherein each of the master nodes are operable to execute an application from application instructions;
• worker nodes;
• a first cluster comprising the first master node;
• a second cluster comprising the second master node and one of the worker nodes;
• wherein the first master node loses functionality and the first master node becomes unable to function as a master node;
• and
• wherein the one of the worker nodes is converted to a new master node by copying state information to the one of the worker nodes.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising a set of instructions stored therein which, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to manage a worker node by:

• determining, by a processor executing instructions from a non-transitory memory to exchange data in a network interconnecting components of a system, a loss of functionality of a first master node, wherein the first master node becomes unable to function as a master node;
• wherein the components of the system comprise master nodes and worker nodes;
• wherein the master nodes comprise the first master node and a second master node;
• and
• wherein each of the master nodes are operable to execute an application from application instructions;
• and
• based on the determining of the loss of functionality of the first master node, converting the worker node to a new master node, wherein the second master node and the new master node comprise a quorum.
