ABSTRACT:
A system and method for adaptively responding to update messages for a replica of a data object. A node may maintain first information regarding a replica of a data object. In various embodiments, the first information may comprise any kind of information regarding the replica of the data object. In one embodiment, the first information may comprise information indicative of accesses to the replica of the data object, e.g., may comprise access history information. In response to receiving a message for updating the replica of the data object, the node may respond to the message based on the first information. For example, the node may select one or more operations to perform based on the first information and may perform the one or more selected operations.
