I’m using node.js with aerospike in a networking application. When a user post, mention or follow I have to do job on timelines or/and notifications. I would like to run these jobs after node.js has sent a response to the client.
I run aboit task managers and message brokers and I’m not sure to understand
So my question is because operations in node.js are asynchronous and synchronous in aerospike-> Is it a bad idea to just send the response to the client and then make these jobs with aerospike (or may I lose something with replications,cloud,etc)
The Aerospike node.js client, from the perspective of the node.js developer, is asynchronous. When you call an operation like get() you include a callback, the operation gets queued, and once the operation runs it triggers that callback.
Yes, under the covers it uses the C client, which currently performs the operation synchronously. When that changes you will not need to modify your code.
Aerospike is a distributed database and RabbitMQ is a message queue. There is no comparing the two in terms of what they do and what they’re used for.
