RE: Reminder and Agenda for Confidential Storage Spec Call - Jan 28 2021

[Side question: anyone know why email to sds-wg@dif.groups.io<mailto:sds-wg@dif.groups.io> fails?]

For those who have plowed their way through the Syntergy Replicator replication pipeline architecture content after our last meeting, another enterprise collaboration platform, Groove Workspace, uses a similar replication pipeline architecture.

Groove Workspace supported real-time, secure, bi-directional, multi-master, peer-to-peer (direct and mediated), cross-firewall replication between desktop clients.  [All the adjectives are necessary and correct and orthogonal to each other …contrary to previous comments.]

…that is, Ray Ozzie and co. have already built and delivered pretty much what we’re trying to conceive and spec out.

Today, Microsoft owns the Groove Networks IP …they bought it when they bought Ray’s company and Bill wanted Ray to be the next CSA at Microsoft …which he was for about 5 years.

Attached are 3 files describing the Groove Workspace replication pipeline.

Cheers,
Michael

Lastly, attached is a more technical description of the Replication Pipeline that describes in a lot of detail what is going on in each of the 3 pipeline components.

This decoupling is very important from an architecture, design, scalability, and performance perspective.

Here’s the replication that diagram I created several years ago at Syntergy as their solution architect …at a high level, it’s actually only 3 components:

The source and target servers could be clients and/servers or intermediary router.  For more details, see page 17 and onwards in the attached whitepaper.

Hi Michael,
That is a great idea! :) (apologies, I lost track of this email thread in my inbox).

Here it is, for today's discussion (in a few mins):

Is it possible to send out a link to the replication use cases document before the start of tomorrow’s meeting?
