Hi,

if I want to replicate data from one node to N-nodes (that is only a subset of nodes in the whole cluster), could I also specify that not only the primary is updated in synchronous mode, but some of the backup nodes, too?

I also would like to somehow guarantee read-your-own-writes semantics. My idea is for replicating a storage / database system to have a single writer through which all writes are propagated.

I'd probably use something like oldest node is the master (which can be done using Apache Ignite).

Then let's say someone decides to create a database and a first resource. I'd have to send an event round robin to create the resource on let's say three of 10 cluster nodes. Maybe I could use a distributed semaphore which just accepts 3-times acquiring the semaphore (name is database + resource concatenated). Once the initial bootstrapping of creating directories and files happened on all 3 nodes a write-transaction can be opened, which writes into a distributed cache. However as I'm thinking about it the cache for this resource must be shared on only the same 3 cluster-nodes. That's maybe already where I have no clue how to achieve this.

Maybe I'm looking into how other data stores are replicated and partitioned, first ;)

There's also BookKeeper for distributing a transaction-log. But I'm not sure if it's overhead if I don't have to persist the changes before applying it to the real data-files (to provide consistency -- I don't need persisted write-ahead logging).

kind regards

Johannes

Hello!

You can use ignite.affinity(cacheName).mapKeyToNode(key): it returns ClusterNode which is primary for this key.

Not sure that I understand you about the quorum.

    Hi,

    can I somehow query on which cluster-nodes a partitioned cache stores
    values for specific keys? I might want to use a cache for
    replicating an
    in-memory transaction log (which does not have to be persisted) to
    replicate a document of a NoSQL document store to a few nodes.

    Thus, instead of a local cache I'd simply write into an ignite
    cache and
    then would like to query which cluster-nodes have stored a
    specific key
    (for instance the document name). So for instance I could tell a load
    balancer for reads to read documents from one of the backup replicas.

    During a transaction commit I would also need this information to
    know
    where to send an event to... to commit the transaction. And
    somehow I'd
    love to wait for a quorum of nodes if the transaction really has
    committed or it needs to roll back.

    kind regards

    Johannes
