Summary: Postgres disaster recovery problem when replaying
Cassandra commands
Key: FINCN-187
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FINCN-187
Project: Fineract Cloud Native
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Juhan Aasaru
In current design there exists a problem that doesn't allow replay cassandra
commands on Postgres disaster recovery.
Postgres can be replicated but at one point the database (and replica) could
become corrupt.
So you restore it from the recent backup but you face the problem that the
backup is probably at least several hours old. To solve the issue you could
replay the commands in Cassandra to bring the database restored fromt the
backup to the lasest state.
Â
The current problem however is that there are some commands that when they get
executed,
they create other commands as a result (when you replay such a command you will
create a command again - although it exists already). So there should be a
mechanism in place in Fineract-CN to identify such commands so one could skip
executing them during replay
(or some other stattegy to deal with this).
