Abstract
Data is stored persistently. At least two different items of the data are stored in two different non-conflicting regions or two different physical clusters. A relationship is maintained between the two different items of data. The relationship enables a process to reach any one of the data items from the other data item. Consistency of the relationship is maintained notwithstanding updates of either or both of the items.
