ManagedConnectionPool doesn't work in a transactional context
-------------------------------------------------------------
Key: ISPN-586
URL: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-586
Project: Infinispan
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Loaders and Stores, Transactions
Affects Versions: 4.1.0.CR2
Reporter: Manik Surtani
Assignee: Manik Surtani
Fix For: 4.1.0.CR3
>From the reporter:
"Anyways, what seems to be the real problem is that all the things that need to be persisted are saved in memory and then when the transaction is completing (either in prepare or commit phase) the loader attempts to get a connection from the datasource. Apparently this is illegal and throws an exception which is what causes the HeuristicMixedException further up the chain.
This only fails when using a ManagedConnectionFactory. If I swap out a PooledConnectionFactory it works fine. I presume the managed version fails because it returns the same connection that is part of the active transaction for that thread and you can't perform new operations on that connection once the transaction is already in prepare or commit. This feels like a bit of a design flaw to me... I didn't see an obvious fix."
This possibly has to do with the AbstractCacheStore doing the following in prepare():
"
public void prepare(List<? extends Modification> mods, GlobalTransaction tx, boolean isOnePhase) throws CacheLoaderException {
if (isOnePhase) {
applyModifications(mods);
} else {
transactions.put(tx, mods);
}
}
"
and later during commit actually writing the changes to the store. This generic, "abstract" behaviour is intended for non-transactional data stores (such as a filesystem). Behaviour should be different when it comes to transactional data stores.

[JBoss JIRA] Created: (ISPN-999) Support eventual consistency

Support eventual consistency
----------------------------
Key: ISPN-999
URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-999
Project: Infinispan
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: Distributed Cache, Locking and Concurrency
Reporter: Manik Surtani
Assignee: Manik Surtani
Fix For: 5.1.0.BETA1, 5.1.0.Final
Essentially, it is about supporting eventual consistency in Infinispan. Currently Infinispan is strongly consistent when using synchronous distribution mode. Each data owner receives updates synchronously so anyone anywhere on the cluster doing a GET will see the correct value. The only exception is during a rehash (when a new node joins or leaves), that consistency is eventual since the GET may reach a new joiner who may not have applied state it receives from its neighbours yet. However this is hidden from users since the GET is sent to> 1 data owner and if an UnsureResponse is received (determined by the fact that a new joiner responds and the new joiner wouldn't have finished applying state), the caller thread waits for more definite responses.
However, there is a use case for being eventually consistent as well: the main benefits being speed and partition tolerance. E.g., if we use distribution in asynchronous mode, the writes become *much* faster. However, anyone anywhere doing a GET will have to perform the GET on all data owners, and compare the versions of the data received to determine which is the latest. And if there is a conflict, to pass back all values to the user.
So in terms of design, what I have in mind is:
* All cache entries are versioned using vector clocks. One vector clock per node.
* When a node performs a GET, the GET is sent to all data owners (concurrently), and the value + version is retrieved from each.
* If the versions are all the same (or they can be "fast forwarded"), the value is returned
* Otherwise, all potential values and their versions are returned
* A resolve() API should be provided where application code may provide a "hint" as to which version should be "correct" - which will cause an update.
* In terms of implementation, this will touch the DistributionInterceptor, InternalCacheEntry and relevant factories, some config code (since this should be consistency model should be configurable), and a new public interface.

[JBoss JIRA] Created: (ISPN-1147) Programmatically creating cache should be automatically reflected throughout the cluster

Programmatically creating cache should be automatically reflected throughout the cluster
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: ISPN-1147
URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-1147
Project: Infinispan
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: Distributed Cache, State transfer
Affects Versions: 4.2.1.FINAL
Reporter: Randall Hauch
Assignee: Manik Surtani
Consider a symmetric cluster of two nodes (N1 and N2) each with a single cache (C1). Currently, a new cache (C2) must be programmatically created _on all all nodes in the cluster_ (if REPL, or all appropriate nodes if DIST) _before_ that new cache can even be _used_.
Ideally, when a new cache (C2) is created on one node (N1), Infinispan should automatically propagate that creation to the appropriate nodes in the cluster so that the new cache can be used immediately.
