Drivers
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
Tooz is provided with several drivers implementing the provided coordination
|
|
API. While all drivers provides the same set of features with respect to the
|
|
API, some of them have different properties:
|
|
|
|
* `zookeeper`_ is the reference implementation and provides the most solid
|
|
features as it's possible to build a cluster of ZooKeeper that is
|
|
resilient towards network partitions for example.
|
|
|
|
* `memcached`_ is a basic implementation and provides little resiliency, though
|
|
it's much simpler to setup. A lot of the features provided in tooz are based
|
|
on timeout (heartbeats, locks, etc) so are less resilient than other
|
|
backends.
|
|
|
|
* `redis`_ is a basic implementation and provides reasonable resiliency
|
|
when used with redis-sentinel. A lot of the features provided in tooz are
|
|
based on timeout (heartbeats, locks, etc) so are less resilient than other
|
|
backends.
|
|
|
|
* `ipc` is based on Posix IPC and only implements a lock mechanism for now, and
|
|
some basic group primitives (with huge limitations). The lock can only be
|
|
distributed locally to a computer processes.
|
|
|
|
* `file` is based on file and only implements a lock based on POSIX or Window
|
|
file locking for now. The lock can only be distributed locally to a computer
|
|
processes.
|
|
|
|
* `zake`_ is a driver using a fake implementation of ZooKeeper and can be
|
|
used to use Tooz in your unit tests suite for example.
|
|
|
|
* `postgresql`_ is a driver providing only distributed lock (for now)
|
|
and based on the PostgreSQL database server.
|
|
|
|
* `mysql`_ is a driver providing only distributed lock (for now)
|
|
and based on the MySQL database server.
