Log entries are recorded in a data storage application (such as an in-memory database, etc.) for a plurality of transactions among nodes in a node hierarchy. The node hierarchy comprises master node having a plurality of slave nodes. Thereafter, at least a portion of the master node log entries are replayed until a first replay position is reached. Next, for each slave node, at least a portion of its respective log entries are replayed until the first replay position is reached (or an error occurs). Subsequently, replay of at least a portion of the log entries of the master node that are subsequent to the first replay position is initiated by the master node in parallel to at least a portion of the replaying by the slave nodes. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.
