Causal Consistency and Latency Optimality: Friend or Foe? [Extended Version]

Rachid Guerraoui, Willy Zwaenepoel, Junxiong Wang, Diego Didona

Causal consistency is an attractive consistency model for geo-replicated data stores. It is provably the strongest model that tolerates network partitions. It avoids the long latencies associated with strong consistency, and, especially when using read-onl ...
