Summary: Accord: UX: Force transactions / automatic transactions (was:
Accord: Force transactions / automatic transactions)
> Accord: UX: Force transactions / automatic transactions
> -------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-18989
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-18989
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Accord
> Reporter: Henrik Ingo
> Priority: Normal
> Fix For: 5.x
>
>
> Note: I chose "bug" because I think this is a serious UX issue we should
> consider. But strictly speaking this is a UX issue and technically the
> implementation is working as designed. The UX conclusion rather is that the
> desing needs improvement...
> I'm submitting this based on observing [~antithesis-luis] creating a checker
> with some accord transactions. A discussion that followed his experience is
> here https://the-asf.slack.com/archives/C0459N9R5C6/p1698352614742079
> The tl;dr is that users are likely to expect single SELECT queries, and maybe
> even single UPDATE/INSERT to be consistent even if they neglect the
> BEGIN...COMMIT around the single statement.
> My proposed fix for improved UX is an ability to force or default also single
> statements to be wrapper in an accord transaction.
> There are two ways to implement this:
> 1. Add configuration option to reject queries that are not accord
> transactions. This could be a per table or per keyspace option.
> 2. A per session setting that enables automatic transactions, combined with a
> global setting to have this behavior as default. MySQL's AUTOCOMMIT is an
> example of this approach.
> My preference is #2.
