  • Publication number: 20240137407
    Abstract: Lease transfer between master and slave replicas is described. A master replicator determines that an initial master replica lease takes effect. On determining that a master replica transfer needs to be performed, sending a transfer preparation message to a target replicator prior to expiration of a current master replica lease. The target replicator locally starts and calculates a new master replica lease and returns a readiness response to the master replicator. The master replicator sends a lease extension message to remaining slave replicators to extend local corresponding leases. After receiving lease extension success responses of a majority of the slave replicators, the master replicator terminates the local master replica lease of the master replicator in advance, and sends a transfer confirmation message to the target replicator. The target replicator validates the new master replica lease to make the target replicator a new master replicator.

  • Publication number: 20240104089
    Abstract: Methods, systems, electronic devices and computer-readable media for database transaction processing are provided. In an example, after determining to perform primary-secondary switching of a copy, a first server records a context of a database transaction that is currently being executed, sends the context to a second server, and switches a primary copy stored in the first server to a secondary copy. The second server switches a secondary copy stored in the second server to a primary copy, and continues execution of the database transaction based on the context after completing the switching.

  • Patent number: 11429599
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present specification provide a method for updating a database by using a two-phase commit distributed transaction. The method is applied to a coordinator, and includes: sending a first-phase prepare request message to each participant to end a current transaction, the current transaction being configured to update a target database record; and after receiving write lock advance release requests sent by all participants, returning a write lock advance release response to each participant to instruct each participant to unlock a target database record of the participant, the write lock advance release requests being sent by the participants after the participants successfully write a log of an update operation of the current transaction to a log buffer.
