server: deactivate ehcache (#2913)
This PR is for deactivating Ehcache in CloudStack since it is not usable.
The first commit remove the default RMI cache peering configured for multicast
which most of the time cannot work. It also requires to have an interface up
which is not always the case while developing offline.
The second commits remove the configuration to activate caching on some
DAOs.
Problems
The code in CS does not seem to fit any caching mechanism especially due to
the homemade DAO code. The main 3 flaws are the following:
Entities are not expected to be shared
There is quite a lot of code with method calls passing entity IDs value as
long, which does some object fetching. Without caching, this behavior will
create distinct objects each time an entity with the same ID is fetched. With
the cache enabled, the same object will be shared among those methods. It has
been seen that it does generate some side effects where code still expected
unchanged entity attributes after calling different methods thus generating
exception/bugs.
DAO update operations are using search queries
Some part of the code are updating entities based on a search query,
therefore the whole cache must be invalidated (see GenericDaoBase: public int
update(UpdateBuilder ub, final SearchCriteria<?> sc, Integer rows);).
Entities based on views joining multiple tables
There are quite a lot of entities based on SQL views joining multiple
entities in a same object. Enabling caching on those would require a mechanism
to link and cross-remove related objects whenever one of the sub-entity is
changed.
Final word
Based on the previously discussed points, the best approach IMHO would be
to move out of the custom DAO framework in CS and use a well known one (out of
scope of this change of course). It will handle caching well and the joins made
by the views in the code. It's not an easy change, but it will fix along a lot
of issues and add a proven / robust framework to an important part of the code.
