HARDWARE ASSISTED SOFTWARE VERSIONING OF CLUSTERED APPLICATIONS

摘要

Examples relate to providing hardware assisted software versioning for clustered applications. In one example, virtualized global memory is accessible to application servers that provide a clustered application, where the clustered application includes multiple versions of a common data structure. After one of the application servers stores an element that is compatible with one version of the common data structure, other versions of the common data structure are located in the virtualized global memory. The element is then invalidated in the other versions of the common data structure to prevent access and translated directly in the virtualized global memory to the other versions of the common data structure. At this stage, the element can be validated in the other versions of the common data structure for access.
