Service Data Replcation (Erl)


Home > Service Implementation Patterns > Service Data Replication

How can service autonomy be preserved when services require
access to shared data sources?
 

Problem

Service logic can be deployed in isolation to increase service autonomy, but
services continue to lose autonomy when requiring access to shared data sources.

Solution

Services can have their own dedicated databases with replication to shared data sources.

Application

An additional database needs to be provided for the service and one or more replication channels need to be enabled between it and the shared data sources.

Impacts

This pattern results in additional infrastructure cost and demands, and
an excess of replication channels
can be difficult to manage.

Principles

Service Autonomy

Architecture

Inventory, Service




By providing each service its own replicated database, autonomy is increased and the strain on the shared central database is also reduced.
