A State Persistence System is a data management system that captures, stores, and manages system state information to enable state recovery, session continuity, and fault tolerance.
- AKA: State Management System, Checkpoint System, State Storage System.
- Context:
- It can typically capture System State Snapshots at defined intervals.
- It can typically store State Data in persistent storage.
- It can typically manage State Versions through versioning mechanisms.
- It can typically enable State Recovery via restoration processes.
- It can typically ensure State Consistency through integrity checks.
- ...
- It can often compress State Information for storage efficiency.
- It can often encrypt State Data for security protection.
- It can often replicate State Checkpoints for redundancy.
- It can often purge Old States based on retention policy.
- ...
- It can range from being a Simple State Persistence System to being a Complex State Persistence System, depending on its state management capability.
- It can range from being a Local State Persistence System to being a Distributed State Persistence System, depending on its storage architecture.
- ...
- It can utilize Database Systems for state storage.
- It can implement Transaction Management for consistency guarantees.
- It can support Fault Tolerant Systems through checkpoint mechanisms.
- ...
- Example(s):
- Specialized State Persistence Systems, such as:
- Domain-Specific State Persistences, such as:
- Infrastructure State Persistences, such as:
- ...
- Counter-Example(s):
- Log Management System, which records event sequences rather than state snapshots.
- Backup System, which copies entire datasets rather than state-specific data.
- Cache System, which stores temporary data rather than persistent state.
