Abstract

There is disclosed configuring of clustered web services nodes accessing a common database, including implementing a data virtualization layer at each node to abstract an instance of the database from a web service application. In one embodiment, at each node is performed creating a first, data virtualization entity bean having all read and write operations of an application-developed (master) entity bean, creating a second entity bean that carries only the read operations of the master entity bean and addresses the replica instance, receiving an operation request at the first entity bean, and routing a request to either the master entity bean or the second entity bean depending upon the requested operation to access the respective database instance. In another embodiment, at each node is performed implementing an empty database instance having a schema matching the common database, identifying a relevant partitioning in a query utilizing the empty database, and routing the query to a respective partitioned database instance.
