Abstract

See full text

A system for managing membership of process groups of a distributed computing environment. Requests to alter membership of a first process group are received and presented to the first process group as a batched request. However, requests to change the membership of a second process group are received and presented to the second process group serially. Thus, the manner in which requests are presented can be different for various process groups. Additionally, different types of requests can be presented to the same process group in a differing manner. For instance, requests to join a process group can be presented as a batched request and requests to leave the process group can be presented serially, or vice versa.
