Master and Slave Connections

Master and Slave Connections

Posted by jwage 5 months ago

In this new cookbook recipe we demonstrate how you can setup multiple connections and use them as master/slaves. All select statements are issued to the slaves and any insert/update/delete statements are issued to the master. This example accomplishes the functionality by extending Doctrine_Query and Doctrine_Record. This article is a perfect example of how you can extend and override functionality in Doctrine to accomplish your needs when Doctrine doesn't necessarily have a native solution ready to go for you.
