Conclusion on Types of CRDTs

This lesson dove into both types of Conflict-free Replicated Data Types - CvRDT and CmRDT. We've explored how CvRDT takes the approach of merging states when there're conflicts and how CmRDT uses operation ordering to maintain consistency. Both types have their strengths and weaknesses and are suitable for different scenarios. Just like how a movie director chooses whether to shoot in film (analogue, just like CvRDTs) or digital (like CmRDTs) based on the needs of the specific scenes.

In distributed systems such as collaborative text editing apps (think Google Docs) or in mobile computing where offline capabilities are essential, CRDTs play a pivotal role in ensuring data consistency. They are as indispensable to the world of distributed computing as the role of sound and visual effects teams to a blockbuster movie.

Going forward, we'll be delving into more complex implementations of distributed systems beyond CRDTs. Just like how a plot in finance or travel movie industry unfolds, unveiling uncertainties and calling for strategic moves, we'll unravel the world of distributed data stores, their complexities and strategies to manage them.

Stay tuned to discover more fascinating aspects of distributed systems!
