Yesterday's post called them distributed in memory cache / storage, but I was reminded that the proper term for what I am talking about is distributed hash tables (DHT). I presented the problem of dealing with DHT in this post, mainly, the fact that we have only key based access and no way to compose several actions into a single transaction. I'll let you go read that post for all the gory details, and continue on with some useful patterns for dealing with this issue.
