Francesco Chicchiriccò commented on SYNCOPE-1006:
-------------------------------------------------

Hi Lazlo,
thanks for your interest in Apache Syncope.

While I agree that JPA in general might not be the most trendy hype at the 
moment, I can count several deployments of the indicated size (or bigger), with 
no relevant performance issues.

I invite you to try a modern Syncope version (1.2.10 or 2.0.2, which both 
feature some search improvements) on a decent and properly configured DBMS as 
recent PostgreSQL (hence no MySQL / MariaDB), with adequate connection pooling.

Besides such considerations, please also take into account that Syncope 2.0 now 
defines an [abstract persistence 
layer|https://github.com/apache/syncope/tree/2_0_X/core/persistence-api], 
currently with a [single JPA-based 
implementation|https://github.com/apache/syncope/tree/2_0_X/core/persistence-jpa]
 available.
Nothing prevents someone (maybe you ;-)) to provide {{persistence-mongodb}} or 
other.

Finally, I would say that such discussion could have had better home at our 
dev@ mailing list; for the prosecution, you might want to 
[subscribe|http://syncope.apache.org/mailing-lists.html].
Regards.

> CRUD via the API and especially the search are very slow when you have e.g. 
> 400.000 users with 30-40 normal attributes in place.
> JPA and relational databases are not the optimal solution for the performance 
> sensitive problem of provisioning and Syncope's search query builder is a 
> very complex/fragile piece of code.
> I am using Syncope 1.1.5 at the moment but I expect no miracles from 1.2.10 
> or 2.x with this amount of users and the same persistence solution.
> I am raising this ticket because I did not find performance related items 
> planned in the Syncope roadmap.
> - Do you consider switching the persistence layer to a document store (e.g. 
> MongoDB)? I think its schema-less nature would be ideal for storing flexible 
> attributes and this way the row/document count explosion problem would be 
> avoided by design. 
> - Another possible performance improvement would be an async layer for the 
> persistence and/or the REST API as well. Maybe using e.g. Redis or other 
> publish-subscribe solution for this part?
> Thanks!
