JMS Consumer (onMessage()) delay in getting message from Oralce AQ

I have an application where I have implemented Oracle AQ. I ran in to a behavior where average time for processing varied as depicted in graph below:



In above graph when volume of orders was less, average processing time came out to be more whereas when load increased with time, average time for processing got constant and then when volume started declining, time again started increasing.

 I analyzed the behavior and found that there is delay in message consumption after message has been produced to AQ. On further analysis I found that AQjmsListenerWorker goes for sleep if message is not available for consumption and sleep time doubles each time (up to peak limit) if message is not available for consumption. Thus optimizing resource utilization if there is no messages in AQ for consumption.

On enabling (-Doracle.jms.traceLevel=6) diagnostics logs for aq api. 

 I analyzed that Listener thread sleep time doubles till 15000 ms (15 sec), starting with default value 1000 ms, if null message is received from AQ. See below excerpt from logs:

 Thread-7 [Fri Oct 10 15:55:32 IST 2014] AQjmsListenerWorker.dispatchOneMsg:  Received the message: null message
Thread-7 [Fri Oct 10 15:55:32 IST 2014] AQjmsListenerWorker.doSleep:  try to wait for 1000 milliseconds
Thread-8 [Fri Oct 10 15:55:33 IST 2014] AQjmsListenerWorker.dispatchOneMsg:  Received the message: null message
Thread-8 [Fri Oct 10 15:55:33 IST 2014] AQjmsSimpleScheduler.feedData:  Got a null message, the sleep time is doubled to 2000
Thread-7 [Fri Oct 10 15:55:33 IST 2014] AQjmsListenerWorker.doSleep:  try to wait for 2000 milliseconds
...........

 Thread-7 [Fri Oct 10 15:55:47 IST 2014] AQjmsListenerWorker.dispatchOneMsg:  Received the message: null message
Thread-7 [Fri Oct 10 15:55:47 IST 2014] AQjmsSimpleScheduler.feedData:  Got a null message, the sleep time is doubled to 15000
Thread-7 [Fri Oct 10 15:55:47 IST 2014] AQjmsListenerWorker.doSleep:  try to wait for 15000 milliseconds

 So when volume was less sleep time was more.

 reference:- https://community.oracle.com/thread/2535275

 To reduce the sleep time I set below system properties. Thus making minimum start time to 100 ms which will double up to 4000 ms.
-Doracle.jms.minSleepTime=100

-Doracle.jms.maxSleepTime=4000

Sleep time is again set to 0 when a not null message is de-queued.

 Thread-7 [Fri Oct 10 15:59:18 IST 2014] AQjmsListenerWorker.dispatchOneMsg:  Received the message: D3DD9DC7EB894ABC915CE80C180C25D5

Thread-7 [Fri Oct 10 15:59:18 IST 2014] AQjmsSimpleScheduler.feedData:  Got a non null message, the sleep time is reset to 0

Python [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: Missing Authority Key Identifier

  Error requests.exceptions.SSLError: HTTPSConnectionPool  Max retries exceeded with url:  (Caused by SSLError(SSLCertVerificationError(1, '[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: Missing Authority Key Identifier (_ssl.c:1028)'))). Analysis & Solution Recently, we updated from Python 3.11 to 3.13, which resulted in error above. We did verify AKI = SKI in chain of certificates. Also, imported chain of certificates into certifi. Nothing worked for us. Seemingly, it is a bug with Python 3.13. So, we downgraded to Python 3.12 and it started working.

Spring MongoDB Rest API not returning response in 90 seconds which is leading to client timeout

  We have Spring Boot  Rest API deployed in Kubernetes cluster which integrates with MongoDB to fetch the data.  MongoDB is fed with data by a real time Spark & NiFi job.  Our clients complained that for a request what they send they don't have response within 90 seconds. Consider it like an OMS ( Order ManagEment System).  On further analysis, we found that Spark & NiFi processing is happenning within 10 seconds after consuming response data from Kafka. Thus, initally out thought was that it due to delay from upstream to produce data in to Kafka.  Thankfully, our data had create / request  timestamp, and when response was received, and when response was inserted into MongoDB. Subtracting response insert time from request time seemed to be well within 90 seconds. But, still client did timeout on not seeing a response within 90 seconds. This led to confusion on our side.  But, then we realized it was due to Read Preference . We updated this...

MongoDB Regex Query taking more time in Production but same query perform well in UAT

   We came across a situation where-in, MongoDB Query was taking more time in Production like 10 seconds and 4.2 seconds but same query performed well in UAT taking under 400 ms. The very first thought that was evident to us that it is because of amount of data which differed in UAT and Production. Then we ran following to see the execution plan -   db.collection.aggregate(<queries>).explain() This gave us Winning and Rejected Plans. Under which, we analyzed that although it was using 'IXSCAN.' But, it was incorrect index- as we had one compound index built on time field and other fields, and there was other index just on time field for TTL purposes. Winning plan picked TTL index rather than compound index. Thus, we dropped TTL index and built TTL index on a different time field.  That got our query performance time from 10 seconds to 726 ms. Also, for other query the performance came down from 8 seconds to 4.3 seconds. Then, we ran following -  ...

Spark MongoDB Connector Not leading to correct count or data while reading

  We are using Scala 2.11 , Spark 2.4 and Spark MongoDB Connector 2.4.4 Use Case 1 - We wanted to read a Shareded Mongo Collection and copy its data to another Mongo Collection. We noticed that after Spark Job successful completion. Output MongoDB did not had many records. Use Case 2 -  We read a MongoDB collection and doing count on dataframe lead to different count on each execution. Analysis,  We realized that MongoDB Spark Connector is missing data on bulk read as a dataframe. We tried various partitioner, listed on page -  https://www.mongodb.com/docs/spark-connector/v2.4/configuration/  But, none of them worked for us. Finally, we tried  MongoShardedPartitioner  this lead to constant count on each execution. But, it was greater than the actual count of records on the collection. This seems to be limitation with MongoDB Spark Connector. But,  MongoShardedPartitioner  seemed closest possible solution to this kind of situation. But, it per...
