I think the modern term for that would be “active/active” (as opposed to
active/passive cluster failover). A master/master architecture is opposed
to a master/slave one, and the recommended updates for that depend on the
actual details of the underlying algorithm (a lot of people use the M/S
naming scheme regardless if it fits properly; not all distributed systems
work like that). It’s why I’ve seen the term replaced with: main, trunk,
controller, primary, leader, manager, etc., depending on the actual context.
