US Patent 11048669 Replicated state management using journal-based registers

A transaction request is received at a journal-based state management system. The transaction request includes a register processing section indicating an operation to be performed at a journal register allocated to the transaction submitter to store state information of an application. Based on the results of a conflict detection operation performed with respect to the transaction request and on the result of the operation on the journal register, the transaction request is accepted for commit. The value of the journal register is stored at a node of the state management system and provided to the transaction submitter.
