Atomikos Forum

Important question to the community

Hi all,

One of the features in our backlog is: optimizing for 1-phase commit (i.e., when only one resource is involved in the transaction).

However, the killer use case for Atomikos is precisely when 2 or more resources are needed. Consequently, we've always been reluctant to changing the design of our core algorithms to fully support 1-phase commit in all possible cases.

The question to you: what do you think? Should we invest in redesigning our core to go for 1-phase commit even when we think this is marginal?

Thanks!

Would these optimization only apply when multiple datasources are being used and only one is modified?  Or would it benefit single datasource non xa situations as well?

I'm inclined to say don't change your algorithm.

It would only benefit in the following case:

-only one resource (DataSource/ConnectionFactory) is used in the transaction, AND

-at least one Synchronization is registered

In practice, this translates into:

-Using JTA with Hibernate and only having JDBC (no JMS) to one database.

I'll let you make the call but that is my use case 99% of the time.  So, a boost in that use case may be useful to me.

Thanks Mike!

I am a bit surprised that JTA is a killer use case for Hibernate just by itself; do you mind explaining the rationale behind that?

Thanks
