Multicast Communication and Ordering Guarantees
Multicast communication is a method of data transmission where a message is sent from one sender to multiple receivers. It is commonly used in distributed systems, networks, and group communications.
1. Atomic Ordering in Multicast Communication
Atomic ordering ensures that all messages in a multicast system are delivered either to all recipients or to none, preventing partial deliveries.
2. Total Ordering of Messages
Total ordering guarantees that all processes in the system receive messages in the same order. It ensures consistency in distributed systems, preventing race conditions and inconsistencies.
- Methods for achieving total ordering:
- Centralized Sequencer – A single process assigns sequence numbers to messages.
- Distributed Agreement – Protocols like Paxos or Lamport Timestamps are used to determine order.
- Causal Ordering – Ensures messages that are causally related are received in the correct sequence.
3. Broadcast vs. Multicast
Feature | Broadcast | Multicast |
---|---|---|
Scope | Sent to all nodes in the network | Sent to a specific group of nodes |
Efficiency | Can be inefficient due to unnecessary delivery | More efficient as only intended recipients receive it |
Use Case | ARP requests, network-wide announcements | Video conferencing, stock market data distribution |
