Abstract:
System, method, and program product for managing transactions on a plurality of Database Management Systems residing on separate participant servers and a coordinator server, A single transaction proceeds by multiple steps across more then one of the plurality of Database Management Systems as participants. Savepoints are assigned to the participants across the Database Management System, with at least one savepoint within a multiple step transaction. The DBMS responds to application requests to rollback to savepoint by rolling back the transaction, across the Database Management System participants, to the savepoint Further disclosed is a program product that contains code, which, either as written on the medium, or as instantiated in RAM, or both, controls the operation of a distributed database management system.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a method and system for connecting a client to a database managed by a network of computer systems having a plurality of database management system (DBMS) members. The method and system includes providing a shared network address for the plurality of DBMS members, which is used by the client to connect to an active DBMS member of the plurality of DBMS members. Through the aspects of the present invention, the shared network address allows the client to connect, via a network router, to any one of the plurality of DBMS members so long as one member is active. Once the client is connected to one member, the member sends to the client a list of all active members and their respective workloads. The list also includes member-specific network address corresponding to each member so that the client can distribute work evenly across the active members and also perform a resynchronization process with a DBMS member after a first connection with the DBMS member has been interrupted.
