Abstract: A jury candidate server (JCS) of a distributed state manager (DSM) implements a plurality of jury configuration evaluation iterations. In a particular iteration, the JCS generates one or more jury configuration options (JCOs) representing changes to a current jury, and assigns quality metrics to the JCOs based at least in part on a prioritized set of criteria among which location diversity has the highest priority. If a JCO meets a quality threshold, a corresponding jury transition is proposed for approval by the current jury.
