Where can I find information about the how flow of the read/write request in the cluster when fired from the client API?
In Aerospike configuration doc ( http://www.aerospike.com/docs/reference/configuration ), it's mentioned about transaction queues, service threads, transaction threads etc but they are not discussed in the architecture document. I want to understand how it works so that I can configure it accordingly.
Changes with server ver 4.7+, the transaction is now handled by the service thread itself. By default, number of service threads is now set to 5 x no. of cpu cores. Once a service thread picks a transaction from the socket buffer, it carries it through completion unless it ends up in the rwHash (e.g. writes for replicating). The transaction queue is still there (internally) but only relevant for transaction restarts when queued up in the rwHash. (Multiple pending transactions for the same digest).
