ruby on rails - MongoDB: Different applications connecting to different replicas -
we use mongodb central database our application; consumer facing mobile app. @ present 7-member replica-set replica-set-1 being master @ moment. backend connects mongo replica build in ruby on rails , use mongoid odm.
there 3 pieces connecting mongodb replica-set.
- the consumer application
- the admin , customer care management application
- the data retrieval application ( analytics , such purposes )
all these 3 apps connect same replica set of now.
what know whether possible connect different applications specific replicas.
for example, mobile app connects primary writes , replicas 2-4 read; customer care management application connects primary ( writes ) , replicas 5-7 reads.
i dont think explicitly mentioning specific replicas in mongoid.yml configuration working. though have mentioned replica-set-7 in mongoid hosts file data retrieval application, see queries in log file of replica-set-2 , 3.
so obviously, mongodb decides criteria distribute queries among replicas despite configuration specified @ client mongoid end.
i love know if such thing possible @ using mongodb , mongoid solve lot of our load issues. right heavy queries customer care , data retrieval apps affects consumer facing mobile app well; reads not segragated. separate out reads.
also, if @ possible, again have eyes raised on possible pitfalls this; specially 3 applications can write db. example, replica-3 becomes primary after election , not explicitly mentioned in configuration of data retrieval application. might happen there become concern.
i not @ sure whether possible; wanted know if theres way figure out this. appreciable.
when connect member of replica set, client told full state of replica set , can connect of them. initial set of hosts seeds process - long application can reach 1 of hosts, doesn't matter hosts in configuration.
mongo have concept of tagged replica set members. when creating connection or executing query can specify tags use select replica set member read from.
