PeerAwareInstanceRegistryImpl will sync to other peers when registration changed,the code as follows:
private void replicateInstanceActionsToPeers(Action action, String appName,
String id, InstanceInfo info, InstanceStatus newStatus,
PeerEurekaNode node) {
try {
InstanceInfo infoFromRegistry = null;
CurrentRequestVersion.set(Version.V2);
switch (action) {
case Cancel:
node.cancel(appName, id);
break;
case Heartbeat:
InstanceStatus overriddenStatus = overriddenInstanceStatusMap.get(id);
infoFromRegistry = getInstanceByAppAndId(appName, id, false);
node.heartbeat(appName, id, infoFromRegistry, overriddenStatus, false);
break;
case Register:
node.register(info);
break;
case StatusUpdate:
infoFromRegistry = getInstanceByAppAndId(appName, id, false);
node.statusUpdate(appName, id, newStatus, infoFromRegistry);
break;
case DeleteStatusOverride:
infoFromRegistry = getInstanceByAppAndId(appName, id, false);
node.deleteStatusOverride(appName, id, infoFromRegistry);
break;
}
} catch (Throwable t) {
logger.error("Cannot replicate information to {} for action {}", node.getServiceUrl(), action.name(), t);
}
}
I am confused about the distributed consistency of multiple eureka servers。when replicate action fail。it just catch the throwable. Why not use consistency algorithms such as gossip,paxos to ensure a higher consistency?
I saw the desc of the wiki and know that eureka just let it in temporary inconsistency。 the server tries to be as resilient as possible。Aha cap theory!
