Integrity of write behind

["Coleman, JohnSteven (Agoda)" <Jo...@agoda.com>]

Hi,

What happens if a node goes down while write behind is in progress on a cache that's persisting to the database? Can the task of persistence be carried on exactly where it failed by a back up node? Are cache entries flagged when they have been successfully persisted so that another node can pick up the task later? Should the persistence layer keep a version number or similar so that updates are orderly and not duplicated?

John

John,

Entries are queued for persisting only on primary nodes, so if it fails
before writing all updates to the underlying database, then it will result
in some entries not being written to the database at all.
This is the price for a better performance, that write behind provides.

Take a look at the following thread for more information:
