I think I'm missing something here or confusing terms perhaps.
What happens to the key:value pairs stored at a peer in the overlay DHT when that peer leaves the p2p network? Are they moved to the new appropriate nearest successor? Is there a standard mechanism for this if that is the case.
My understand is that the successors and predecessor peer information of adjacent peers has to be modified as expected when a peer leaves however I can't seem to find information on what happens to the actual data stored at that peer. How is the data kept complete in the DHT as peer churn occurs?
Thank you.
