Agenda

June 2nd 2021

• Presentation and discussion over the following issue:
  Title: "Servers waiting indefinitely for a reply"
  Summary: If a packet is lost between servers, multiple threads get stuck and servers wait indefinitely for a reply, without any retry mechanism or timeout.
  Context: https://markmail.org/search/?q=list%3Aorg.apache.geode.dev+order%3Adate-backward#query:list%3Aorg.apache.geode.dev%20order%3Adate-backward+page:1+mid:l6uw5vs62vmtcxo4+state:results
  

Petar Tomic presented the above topic. The primary issue is lack of any retry when the TCP connection between two servers gets disrupted (in this case because a proxy is down), but the UDP connection persists. The rest of the meeting was spent discussing potential approaches to solving this problem. Petar will follow up on the mailing list with a proposal for a solution.

May 5th 2021

• RFC "Geode Command to replicate region data from one site to another connected via WAN" way forward (Geode Command to replicate region data from one site to another connected via WAN)

27 community members attended and discussed the above RFC. After Alberto Gomez presented a summary of the RFC, much of the discussion focused avoiding duplication and minimizing impact on cluster stability due to increased resource consumption.

Alberto will update the RFC with additional details and share his current work in form of a draft PR.

During the discussion the article Routing Events Directly to a Parallel Apache Geode AsyncEventQueue by Barry Oglesby was referenced.
