Comment on Why Strong Consistency?parent

Comments

My point was kind of tongue-in-cheek. Like the other comment suggests, I was talking about how people actually use the term "eventually consistent" for example to refer to system-of-systems of multiple microservices or event sourcing systems. It is possible to define and use the terms more exactly like you suggest. I have no problem with that kind of use. But even if you use the terms more carefully, most people do not, meaning that when you talk about these systems using the misunderstood terms, people may misunderstand you although you are careful.
