Modified conflict-free replica data type (CRDT) operation transmission with conflict avoidance

A computer-implemented method comprising:

• receiving, at a stamping server, a first operation to a first replica of a Conflict-Free Replicable Data Type (CRDT) data structure corresponding to a document from a first client device;
• receiving, at the stamping server, a second operation to a second replica of the CRDT data structure from a second client device;
• identifying a Unique-ID associated with the first operation and the second operation;
• detecting a collision based on the Unique-ID identified;
• rejecting the second operation received from the second client device;
• and
• receiving a third operation to the second replica of the CRDT data structure from the second client device, the third operation including an updated Unique-ID, wherein receiving the third operation further comprises:
• sending, to the second client device, the first operation that is stamped by the stamping server;
• causing the second client device to merge the first operation with the second replica to generate a modified second replica;
• causing the second client device to revise the second operation to generate the third operation based on the modified second replica;
• and
• causing the second client device to communicate the third operation with the updated Unique-ID based on associating the revised second operation to the updated Unique-ID that corresponds to a change to the modified second replica.

A computer storage device having computer-executable instructions stored thereon, which, on execution by a computer, cause the computer to perform operations comprising:

• receiving, at a stamping server, a first operation to a first replica of a Conflict-Free Replicable Data Type (CRDT) data structure corresponding to a document from a first client device;
• receiving, at the stamping server, a second operation to a second replica of the CRDT data structure from a second client device;
• identifying a Unique-ID associated with the first operation and the second operation;
• detecting a collision based on the Unique-ID identified;
• rejecting the second operation received from the second client device;
• and
• receiving a third operation to the second replica of the CRDT data structure from the second client device, the third operation including an updated Unique-ID, wherein receiving the third operation further comprises:
• sending, to the second client device, the first operation that is stamped by the stamping server;
• causing the second client device to merge the first operation with the second replica to generate a modified second replica;
• causing the second client device to revise the second operation to generate the third operation based on the modified second replica;
• and
• causing the second client device to communicate the third operation with the updated Unique-ID based on associating the revised second operation to the updated Unique-ID that corresponds to a change to the modified second replica.
