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;

Haproxy and tomcat JSESSIONID

One of the biggest problems I have been trying to solve at our startup is to put our tomcat nodes in HA mode. Right now if a customer comes, he lands on to a node and remains there forever. This has two major issues: 1) We have to overprovision each node with ability to handle worse case capacity. 2) If two or three high profile customers lands on to same node then we need to move them manually. 3) We need to cut over new nodes and we already have over 100+ nodes.  Its a pain managing these nodes and I waste lot of my time in chasing node specific issues. I loath when I know I have to chase this env issue. I really hate human intervention as if it were up to me I would just automate thing and just enjoy the fruits of automation and spend quality time on major issues rather than mundane task,call me lazy but thats a good quality. So Finally now I am at a stage where I can put nodes behing HAProxy in QA env. today we were testing the HA config and first problem I immediat...

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...
