[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Closed: (JBPM-771) Auto-increment long primary keys for process definition and instance are not acceptable for the systems with decentralized database

Auto-increment long primary keys for process definition and instance are not acceptable for the systems with decentralized database ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBPM-771 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBPM-771 Project: JBoss jBPM Issue Type: Feature Request Components: Core Engine Affects Versions: jBPM 3.1.3 Reporter: Andriy Gryn Assigned To: Tom Baeyens Due to different reasons (e.g. absense of the reliable communication channels) it may be necessary to support decentralized mode when there is several database servers containing partial data (e.g. one database server per region) that are replicated from time to time to the central database to build consolidated system. ProcessDefinition and ProcessInstance have now long primary key with native generator. In the scenario with decentralized database this approach will not work. Instead GUIDs could to be used as primary keys for objects that are to be consolidated to central database. It seems that currently modification required to support decentralized mode.
