Re: [Maria-discuss] Creating Custom Storage Engine

I see... so the MariaDB top-half (by "top-half" I mean everything that sits above the storage engine) doesn't do nasty things like caching? If it did, then writes at other MariaDB sites wouldn't show up in reads performed at the site caching the data. If the MariaDB top-half does nothing more than essentially translate user operations / queries into calls on the SE, then in theory nothing special must be done to deploy MariaDB at multiple sites accessing a shared storage engine.

Follow-up: I see in the blog pointed to by Daniel mentioned an SE for Cassandra.... so I take it the answer is yes? Does anyone have experience with this / know if anything "extra" must be done to make that work?

It falls to the responsibility of the storage engine to ensure that the ACID guarantees are implemented.

Thanks for the references! That helps a lot

One other question I have is: can MariaDB work in a distributed fashion? To be more clear, the storage backend I'm developing is distributed, like Cassandra, and I would like to deploy many MariaDB instances that all access the same storage cluster. Can this be done?
