Agree with above, I'm not sure why that comment is most upvoted, it's poorly written and the author doesn't seem to have a good grasp of distributed systems concepts.

I was using "eventually consistent system" as a shorthand for "multi-master database that is eventually consistent" which may have been confusing.
