3. And the key to this, is that we will have an implementation of a LazyReplicatedHashMap
 The key object in this map is the session Id.
 The map entry object is an object that looks like this
 ReplicatedEntry {
    string id;//sessionid
    bool isPrimary; //does this node hold the data
    bool isBackup; //does this node hold backup data
    Session session; //not null values for primary and backup nodes
    Member primary; //information about the primary node
    Member backup; //information about the backup node
 }

Burning a primary-secondary scheme into the API seems a little less general. I think you should assume there can be N backups, where N is usually 1. How do you handle locking with this API?

 The LazyReplicatedHashMap overrides get(key) and put(id,session)

So all the nodes will have the a sessionId,ReplicatedEntry combinations in their session map. But only two nodes will have the actual data. This solution is for sticky LB only, but when failover happens, the LB can pick any node as each node knows where to get the data. The newly selected node, will keep the backup node or select a new one, and do a publish to the entire cluster of the locations.

Doesn't this mean you have to publish to the whole cluster at session creation? This will eventually limit scalability IMO.
