High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Virtual synchrony is an interprocess messaging passing (sometimes called event queue management) technology. Virtual synchrony systems allow programs running in a network to organize themselves into process groups, and to send messages to groups (as opposed to sending them to specific processes). Each message is delivered to all the group members, in the identical order, and this is true even when two messages are transmitted simultaneously by different senders. Application design and implementation is greatly simplified by this property: every group member sees the same events (group membership changes, and incoming messages) and in the same order.
