BROKERING PERSISTED AND UNPERSISTED LOG RECORDS

Brokering log records so as to prevent log records that are not yet persisted in a persistent log from being disseminated. The log records may be generated as a primary compute system performs operations. Upon receiving a request for a log record, the broker component determines whether the requested log record has been persisted in a persistent log. If the broker component determines that the log record has been persisted in the persistent log, the broker component responds to the request by causing the requested log record to be provided to the requesting entity (e.g., a secondary compute system). On the other hand, if the log record cannot yet determine that the log record has been persisted in the persistent log, the broker component prevents the log record from being provided to the requesting entity. This prevents data from being inconsistent during recovery.
