Abstract
A method, system, and computer program product for adaptive high-performance database redo log synchronization. The method commences upon performing a write operation of a redo log entry, the write operation concluding with an indication of completion of the write operation of the redo log entry. Any number of committing processes may be waiting for the indication of completion, and upon indication of completion, then (using a first synchronization mode) the processes or proxy measures the waiting time as experienced by the committing processes (e.g., while waiting for the indication of completion of the write operation of the redo log entry). In some cases a second synchronization mode would introduce less latency than the first synchronization mode, so the system changes to a second synchronization mode. The system can also change mode when a predicted second mode waiting time is smaller than the measured waiting time.
