METHOD FOR INFORMATION REPLICATION IN DISTRIBUTED DATABASES WITH COMPETITIVE FLOW DISTRIBUTION Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC G06F12/00 

FIELD: physics, computer engineering.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to information technology, particularly methods and means of facilitating information exchange between nodes of a distributed computer system. Disclosed is a method of replicating information in distributed databases with competitive flow distribution where, during exchange of data to be replicated between nodes of a distributed database, exchange files are created and transmitted between nodes of the distributed database, the method being characterised by that, based on parameters of the exchange files and information on available network resources, a version of flow distribution of exchange files at communication devices is calculated, information on the version of flow distribution of exchange files is transmitted in form of a control signal to inputs of the communication devices, transmission routes of the exchange files are calculated by the communication devices based on a distributed algorithm and the exchange files are transmitted over the calculated routes.

EFFECT: high rate of replication in distributed databases by influencing distribution of flow of data on nodes of distributed databases.
