Abstract

Distributed version control in a multi-region cloud in which each region includes an instance of a version control service. A first version control service in a first region receives an indicator to re-version a document saved in the first cloud region. For re-versioning due to creation of a new version of the document in the first cloud region, first version control service re-versions the document by saving the created new version of the document in the first cloud region. The first version control service identifies access information to a second version control service in a second cloud region and transmits the re-versioned document to the second version control service. For a re-versioning due to receiving a new version of the document from a second version control service, the first version control service re-versions the document by saving the received new version of the document in the first cloud region.

Claims20

Dependent claims

A method for distributed version control in a multi-region cloud, each region in the multi-region cloud including an instance of a version control service, the method comprising:

receiving an indicator, by a first version control service in a first cloud region of a multi-region cloud, that a document saved in the first cloud region is to be re-versioned;
based on the indicator indicating the document saved in the first cloud region is to be re-versioned due to the creation of a new version of the document in the first cloud region:
re-versioning, by the first version control service, the document saved in the first cloud region by saving the created new version of the document in the first cloud region;
identifying, by the first version control service, access information to a second version control service in a second cloud region of the multi-region cloud;
and
transmitting, by the first version control service to the second version control service, the re-versioned document;
and
based on the indicator indicating the document saved in the first cloud region is to be re-versioned due to receiving a new version of the document from a second version control service in a second cloud region of the multi-region cloud:
re-versioning, by the first version control service, the document saved in the first cloud region by saving the received new version of the document in the first cloud region.

6 more elements

A computer program product for distributed version control in a multi-region cloud, each region in the multi-region cloud including an instance of a version control service, the computer program product comprising one or more computer readable storage medium and program instructions stored on at least one of the one or more computer readable storage medium, the program instructions comprising:

program instructions to receive an indicator, by a first version control service in a first cloud region of a multi-region cloud, that a document saved in the first cloud region is to be re-versioned;
based on the indicator indicating the document saved in the first cloud region is to be re-versioned due to the creation of a new version of the document in the first cloud region:
program instructions to re-version, by the first version control service, the document saved in the first cloud region by saving the created new version of the document in the first cloud region;
program instructions to identify, by the first version control service, access information to a second version control service in a second cloud region of the multi-region cloud;
and
program instructions to transmit, by the first version control service to the second version control service, the re-versioned document;
and
based on the indicator indicating the document saved in the first cloud region is to be re-versioned due to receiving a new version of the document from a second version control service in a second cloud region of the multi-region cloud:
program instructions to re-version, by the first version control service, the document saved in the first cloud region by saving the received new version of the document in the first cloud region.

6 more elements

A computer system for distributed version control in a multi-region cloud, each region in the multi-region cloud including an instance of a version control service, the computer system comprising one or more processors, one or more computer readable memories, one or more computer readable tangible storage medium, and program instructions stored on at least one of the one or more storage medium for execution by at least one of the one or more processors via at least one of the one or more memories, the program instructions comprising:

program instructions to receive an indicator, by a first version control service in a first cloud region of a multi-region cloud, that a document saved in the first cloud region is to be re-versioned;
based on the indicator indicating the document saved in the first cloud region is to be re-versioned due to the creation of a new version of the document in the first cloud region:
program instructions to re-version, by the first version control service, the document saved in the first cloud region by saving the created new version of the document in the first cloud region;
program instructions to identify, by the first version control service, access information to a second version control service in a second cloud region of the multi-region cloud;
and
program instructions to transmit, by the first version control service to the second version control service, the re-versioned document;
and
based on the indicator indicating the document saved in the first cloud region is to be re-versioned due to receiving a new version of the document from a second version control service in a second cloud region of the multi-region cloud:
program instructions to re-version, by the first version control service, the document saved in the first cloud region by saving the received new version of the document in the first cloud region.
