DATA CONSISTENCY WITHIN A FEDERATION INFRASTRUCTURE

Embodiments include establishing and maintaining a consistent replica set within the federation infrastructure. A replica set, including a primary node and secondary nodes, is established from among nodes in a ring of nodes. An occurrence of a replica set configuration event affecting at least one of the replica set members is indicated. Based on the indication and based on a type of the replica set configuration event, it is determined that the replica set is to be reconfigured. The replica set is reconfigured according to a reconfiguration appropriate for the type of the replica set configuration event.
