ASF GitHub Bot commented on GEODE-8130: --------------------------------------- dschneider-pivotal opened a new pull request #5120: URL: https://github.com/apache/geode/pull/5120 * replaced replicated metaRegion with a partitioned dataRegion Currently the dataRegion is used the same way as the metaRegion except for sets and hashes which store their actual data in it. * Exception handling now correctly deals with FunctionException * Disabled a test until GEODE-8127 if fixed. * now uses the ByteArrayWrapper as the key on the meta region and the locks map instead of using a String. Since a ByteArrayWrapper is used as the key in the data region this will end up saving memory. * Found a problem with redis dynamic region management. Some of the code was executing when we added a new set or hash to the metaDataRegion. It was only ignoring STRING and HLL. This caused some extra memory to be used for every redis set/hash. Now the dynamic region code is only used for lists and sortedSet. * This commit has some TODO comments of what looks like a bug in the dynamic region code when a new server is started. It looks like the new server will not create already existing dynamic regions. We could test this by starting one server, create a LIST, then start another server, and then shutdown the first server. Does the LIST still exist? If we change them not to use dynamic regions then this issue will go away. Thank you for submitting a contribution to Apache Geode. In order to streamline the review of the contribution we ask you to ensure the following steps have been taken: ### For all changes: - [ ] Is there a JIRA ticket associated with this PR? Is it referenced in the commit message? - [ ] Has your PR been rebased against the latest commit within the target branch (typically `develop`)? - [ ] Is your initial contribution a single, squashed commit? - [ ] Does `gradlew build` run cleanly? - [ ] Have you written or updated unit tests to verify your changes? - [ ] If adding new dependencies to the code, are these dependencies licensed in a way that is compatible for inclusion under [ASF 2.0](http://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#category-a)? ### Note: Please ensure that once the PR is submitted, check Concourse for build issues and submit an update to your PR as soon as possible.

Another partitioned regioni is used to also > store the redis key as the region key (as a ByteArrayWrapper object) and the > region value is an object that is basically a Set or HashMap. > This uses extra memory, the replicate does not scale well, is slower > (updating two regions is slower than one region), and trying to update two > regions to hold the same logical redis "key" has race conditions which can > lead to inconsistent data. > The solution is to have a single partitioned region that can hold multiple > types of data (sets, hashes, strings, lists, etc). -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
