| 8 Introduction | |
| 9 ============ | |
| 10 | |
| 11 This module attemtps to provide a storage driver that is really multiple | |
| 12 storage drivers. This could be used for storage error tolerance or | |
| 13 caching of data in a faster storage driver. | |
| 14 | |
| 15 Configuration | |
| 16 ============= | |
| 17 | |
| 18 An example: | |
| 19 | |
| 20 ``` {.lua} | |
| 21 storage = "multi" | |
| 22 storage_multi_policy = "all" | |
| 23 storage_multi = { | |
| 24 "memory", | |
| 25 "internal", | |
| 26 "sql" | |
| 27 } | |
| 28 ``` | |
| 29 | |
| 30 Here data would be first read from or written to [mod\_storage\_memory], | |
| 31 then internal storage, then SQL storage. For reads, the first successful | |
| 32 read will be used. For writes, it depends on the `storage_multi_policy` | |
| 33 option. If set to `"all"`, then all storage backends must report success | |
| 34 for the write to be considered successful. Other options are `"one"` and | |
| 35 `"majority"`. |
