29 * Database cluster connection, tracking, load balancing, and transaction manager interface
30 *
31 * A "cluster" is considered to be one master database and zero or more replica databases.
32 * Typically, the replica DBs replicate from the master asynchronously. The first node in the
33 * "servers" configuration array is always considered the "master". However, this class can still
34 * be used when all or some of the "replica" DBs are multi-master peers of the master or even
35 * when all the DBs are non-replicating clones of each other holding read-only data. Thus, the
36 * role of "master" is in some cases merely nominal.
37 *
38 * By default, each DB server uses DBO_DEFAULT for its 'flags' setting, unless explicitly set
39 * otherwise in configuration. DBO_DEFAULT behavior depends on whether 'cliMode' is set:
40 * - In CLI mode, the flag has no effect with regards to LoadBalancer.
41 * - In non-CLI mode, the flag causes implicit transactions to be used; the first query on
42 * a database starts a transaction on that database. The transactions are meant to remain
43 * pending until either commitMasterChanges() or rollbackMasterChanges() is called. The
44 * application must have some point where it calls commitMasterChanges() near the end of
45 * the PHP request.
46 * Every iteration of beginMasterChanges()/commitMasterChanges() is called a "transaction round".
47 * Rounds are useful on the master DB connections because they make single-DB (and by and large
48 * multi-DB) updates in web requests all-or-nothing. Also, transactions on replica DBs are useful
49 * when REPEATABLE-READ or SERIALIZABLE isolation is used because all foriegn keys and constraints
50 * hold across separate queries in the DB transaction since the data appears within a consistent
51 * point-in-time snapshot.
52 *
53 * The typical caller will use LoadBalancer::getConnection( DB_* ) to yield a live database
54 * connection handle. The choice of which DB server to use is based on pre-defined loads for
55 * weighted random selection, adjustments thereof by LoadMonitor, and the amount of replication
56 * lag on each DB server. Lag checks might cause problems in certain setups, so they should be
57 * tuned in the server configuration maps as follows:
58 * - Master + N Replica(s): set 'max lag' to an appropriate threshold for avoiding any database
59 * lagged by this much or more. If all DBs are this lagged, then the load balancer considers
60 * the cluster to be read-only.
61 * - Galera Cluster: Seconds_Behind_Master will be 0, so there probably is nothing to tune.
62 * Note that lag is still possible depending on how wsrep-sync-wait is set server-side.
63 * - Read-only archive clones: set 'is static' in the server configuration maps. This will
64 * treat all such DBs as having 0 lag.
65 * - SQL load balancing proxy: any proxy should handle lag checks on its own, so the 'max lag'
66 * parameter should probably be set to INF in the server configuration maps. This will make
67 * the load balancer ignore whatever it detects as the lag of the logical replica is (which
68 * would probably just randomly bounce around).
69 *
70 * If using a SQL proxy service, it would probably be best to have two proxy hosts for the
71 * load balancer to talk to. One would be the 'host' of the master server entry and another for
72 * the (logical) replica server entry. The proxy could map the load balancer's "replica" DB to
73 * any number of physical replica DBs.
