A Mechanism for Highly-Available OLTP Systems based on Paxos Consensus

Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Demand for highly available (HA) on-line transaction processing system has been increasing these years. However, it is relatively difficult to make modern multi-layered systems HA because the HA mechanisms of each layer need to be coordinated carefully. In addition, service outage is dependent on failure detector which requires some amount of time until it detects a failure. We propose a mechanism that provides end-to-end HA for modern On-Line-Transaction-Processing (OLTP) systems. In our mechanism, when the primary system did not respond in a specific time, client reroutes a request to a secondary system without waiting for failure detection. Primary database server replicates transaction logs to secondary database server using PAXOS consensus algorithm. Primary and secondary database servers avoid duplicate transaction commits while they allow duplicate executions of a transaction by multiple application servers. We applied this mechanism to a Web application and evaluated it to show that it can be used for general Web applications.
