ABSTRACT	Database replication protocols have historically been built on top of distributed database systems, and have consequently been designed and implemented using distributed transactional mechanisms, such as atomic commitment. We argue in this paper that this approach is not always adequate to efficiently support database replication and that more suitable alternatives, such as atomic broadcast primitives, should be employed instead. More precisely, we show in this paper that fully replicated database systems, based on the deferred update replication model, have better throughput and response time if implemented with an atomic broadcast termination protocol than if implemented with atomic commitment. 1 Introduction Replication is considered a cheap software based way to increase data availability when compared to hardware based specialised techniques [16]. However, designing a replication scheme that provides reasonable performance and maintains data consistency is still an active area of...	user correction - Legacy Corrections
