20130066837 | RECOVERING STATEFUL READ-ONLY DATABASE SESSIONS - A process, apparatus, and computer-readable medium are provided for rebuilding a database session when a previous database session becomes unavailable and the commands previously sent for execution on the previous database session satisfy certain criteria. The process includes determining whether or not a set of commands sent by a client for execution on the previous database session is acceptable to replay based at least in part on whether or not the set of commands satisfies one or more criteria. The process further includes determining that the previous database session is unavailable. In response to determining that the previous database session is unavailable, if the set of commands is acceptable for replay, the set of commands is sent for execution on a new database session to rebuild the state on the new database session. The process masks the outage from the application. | 03-14-2013 |
20130066955 | MASKING DATABASE OUTAGES FROM CLIENTS AND APPLICATIONS - Methods, devices, and computer-readable media are provided for restoring state that was built up on a first session between a first server instance and a client to a second session between a second server instance and the client. Non-transactional session state that existed for the first session is preserved by repeating non-transactional commands in the second session. Transactions are executed in the second session when the transactions did not complete in the first session. The first server instance sends, to the client in the first session, information to maintain for a possible replay of commands that were sent in a request to the first server instance for execution in the first session. If the first session becomes unavailable, the maintained information may be used by the second server instance to restore the database session, masking the outage from users, applications, and clients. | 03-14-2013 |
20130297566 | RECOVERING STATEFUL READ-ONLY DATABASE SESSIONS - A process, apparatus, and computer-readable medium are provided for rebuilding a database session when a previous database session becomes unavailable and the commands previously sent for execution on the previous database session satisfy certain criteria. The process includes determining whether or not a set of commands sent by a client for execution on the previous database session is acceptable to replay based at least in part on whether or not the set of commands satisfies one or more criteria. The process further includes determining that the previous database session is unavailable due to a planned or unplanned recoverable error. In response to determining that the previous database session is unavailable, if the set of commands is acceptable for replay, the set of commands is sent for execution on a new database session to rebuild the state, which was exposed to the client from the previous database session, on the new database session. The process masks the outage from the application. | 11-07-2013 |
