Description

The replica servers guarantee read-your-write, but there are cases where it can be hard for the application to make sure you always end up on the same replica. For example, with a REST API running on Cloudflare Workers, user requests may not always end up on the same locations, resulting in different API calls landing on different replicas, which can break read your write.

Research direction

The issue names replica servers and a REST API on Cloudflare Workers, but no files, tests, or entry point. Start by locating the replica and read-your-write implementation and its tests; done means applications can consistently reach the same replica across requests without breaking read-your-write.
