Spring manual applying interceptor to a bean

We had a weird requirement where the same spring bean needs to be deployed on two different node types (storage and metadata). When its deployed on metadata node it needs to talk to a specific shard database and when its deployed on storage node it can talk to multiple shard databases.  To achieve this in metadata node we wrote our own transaction annotation and applied a  TransactionInterceptor to the bean in spring that would  start transaction before every method.

Now in order for same bean in storage node talk to different databases over different transaction managers we created a pool of beans at startup each with its own interceptor and there we had to hand create the beans but now problem was how to manually apply the same AOP inteceptor. We tried using ProxyFactoryBean but it was not easy and then my colleague landed on to this which saved the day.

                ProxyFactory proxyFactory = new ProxyFactory(sqlDirectoryService);
                proxyFactory.addAdvice(transactionInterceptor);
                proxyFactory.setProxyTargetClass(true);
                return proxyFactory;

Spring 3.2 quartz 2.1 Jobs added with no trigger must be durable.

I am trying to enable HA on nodes and in that process I found that in a two test node setup a job that has a frequency of 10 sec was running into deadlock. So I tried upgrading from Quartz 1.8 to 2.1 by following the migration guide but I ran into an exception that says "Jobs added with no trigger must be durable.". After looking into spring and Quartz code I figured out that now Quartz is more strict and earlier the scheduler.addJob had a replace parameter which if passed to true would skip the durable check, in latest quartz this is fixed but spring hasnt caught up to this. So what do you do, well I jsut inherited the factory and set durability to true and use that public class DurableJobDetailFactoryBean extends JobDetailFactoryBean {     public DurableJobDetailFactoryBean() {         setDurability(true);     } } and used this instead of JobDetailFactoryBean in the spring bean definition     <bean i...

Jersey streaming binary data

In the previous post I showed how you can post binary data to a jersey REST api. You can also use Jersey to serve files, although its better done by apache or nginx but sometimes you might want to serve thumbnails stored in a database out of a service and put varnish in front of the REST api to cache the thumbnails. This is just a demonstration of using jersey to serve binary data in streaming fashion. @Path("/download-service") public class DownaloadService extends SecureRestService { private static final AppLogger logger = AppLogger.getLogger(DownaloadService.class); @POST @Produces(MediaType.APPLICATION_OCTET_STREAM) public StreamingOutput getThumbnail( @FormParam("securityKey") final String securityKey, @FormParam("guid") final String guid) throws JSONException { return new StreamingOutput() { @Override public void write(OutputStream out) throws IOException { try { if (!isAuthorized(securityKey)) { response.sendErro...
