This paper introduces dual-quorum replication, a novel data replication algorithm designed to support Internet edge services. Dual-quorum replication combines volume leases and quorum based techniques in order to achieve excellent availability, response time, and consistency the references to each object (a) tend not to exhibit high concurrency across multiple nodes and (b) tend to exhibit bursts of read-dominated or write-dominated behavior. Through both analytical and experimental evaluation of a prototype, we show that the dual-quorum protocol can (for the workloads of interest) approach the excellent performance and availability of Read-One/Write-All-Async (ROWA-A) epidemic algorithms without suffering the weak consistency guarantees and resulting design complexity inherent in ROWA-Async systems.
