Скачать или смотреть Light Weight Transactions Under Stress (Christopher Batey, The Last Pickle) | Cassandra Summit 2016

Slides: https://www.slideshare.net/DataStax/l... | The Strong Consistency provided by QUORUM reads in Cassandra can still lead to read-write-modify problems when applications want to do things such as guarantee uniqueness or sell exactly 300 cinema tickets. Fortunately Light Weight Transactions (LWT) are designed to solve the problems Strong Consistency can not.

In this talk Christopher Batey, Consultant at The Last Pickle, will discuss:
Syntax and semantics: Theoretical use cases
How they work under the covers

Then we will go through LWTs in practice:
How do the number of nodes/replicas/data centres affect performance?
How does contention (multiple concurrent queries using LWTs) affect availability and performance?
What consistency guarantees do you get with other LWTs and non-LWTs?
How does LWT timeout differ from normal write timeout?
Use case: LWTs as a distributed lock and how it went wrong 5 times.
