A question I can’t resolve by Googling - has anyone attempted to create entirely new words to represent the concepts that master or slave have been used to represent? e.g. a word that means "authoritative source of data that has no dependency on another source" and has no other meaning?
Why aren’t either primary or authoritative vs. copy/secondary/replica sufficient?
I don’t have an opinion on whether they are or not. I was just interested in whether anyone is rethinking this from a different perspective.
Oh, I don’t know if new terms have been coined for this issue.
However, in many cases these might not have been the best terms in the first place vs. other existing terms.
