I am using a cluster for my Node.js app. See: https://nodejs.org/api/cluster.html



This has been very useful for many reasons, but now I face a challenge. I want to add a feature to my app which sends a HTTP request to another server, and then gets the response, extracts the data and then saves it in a MySQL database.



I am facing an issue where this feature is inserting duplicates into my database because it is running the HTTP request multiple times (one for each worker on my cluster).



How can I run this process only once when I have 4 workers in my cluster??
