@val you can't change db of active connection. you need to change and reconnect so practically same as making new connection |

It’s from 2015 but I think it’s still applicable with minor adjustments |

I’d check http://mark-story.com/posts/view/using-cakephp-and-a-horizontally-sharded-database :slightly_smiling_face: |

@spriz what simpler solution? @admad ok, how the connection can switch from one schema from another without creating a new connection? |
| # |
Mar 29th 2019, 12:35 |
spriz |
I’ve previously just used multiple database connections though |
| # |
Mar 29th 2019, 12:35 |
admad |
database name name is set in connection, models/tables know nothign abotu it |

There’s been quite a lot of talk about multi tenancy applications like that in cakephp, I think there is a simpler solution to that @val :slightly_smiling_face: |

@admad by scheama I mean a database with tables |
| # |
Mar 29th 2019, 12:34 |
admad |
@val you by schema you mean table? |
| # |

@spriz more or less the same environment. Because there are thousands of customers. @admad nope. We use MySQL. |
| # |
Mar 29th 2019, 12:33 |
spriz |
And why is it too expensive to create a new connection? |
| # |
Mar 29th 2019, 12:33 |
admad |
@val are you referring to postgres schema? |
| # |
Mar 29th 2019, 12:33 |
spriz |
Hmm, and it’s the same app environment for all customers? |
| # |
Mar 29th 2019, 12:28 |
val |
I wonder how would it be possible to set the schema name before the model is created. Logically, model factory seems to be a good place for that. |

> Hi, is there a quick way in cake 3.x to switch to a different database schema without creating a new database connection? The use case is when each customer has its own database, the schemas are identical for each customer and cake app needs to retrieve data from multiple databases (from identical table of the customer database). Or simply to switch from one customer database to another. Creating new connections is too expensive. |

What are you trying to accomplish @val? |

I believe so, not completely sure though. This could sound like a XY problem though |

IndexRegistry is a factory? |
| # |
Mar 29th 2019, 12:20 |
spriz |
that’s a cakephp elasticsearch integration using these model factories |
| # |
Mar 29th 2019, 12:20 |
spriz |
specifically https://github.com/cakephp/elastic-search/blob/b9d434c0fce6250a8acb616f7be00d599e276803/src/IndexRegistry.php AFAIK :slightly_smiling_face: |

@spriz what's that? |

@val I’d imagine it could be https://github.com/cakephp/elastic-search/tree/master/src ? |

The cookbook briefly mentions the model factory - https://book.cakephp.org/3.0/en/controllers.html#loading-additional-models. Could anyone provide an example or a better explanation how to build my own model factory? |

People tend to forget that developing software is not really about the initial cost but also the year-to-year maintenance, which often is the same or higher than the cost of initially building it |

@acosonic as an outsider it really seems like you’re working with someone that do not truly understand the maintenance cost of software :cold_sweat: |

Well, now they have decided to make order in backend system, it might be good idea to work on migration later |

Parallel upgrades are a good solution here |

The list isn’t endless. It might be big, but you’re not going to upgrade all those parts at the same time |

The codebase is massive, and it's mostly financial stuff, products, customers, account plans, coupons, promotions, landing page systems, invoices, re-occuring payments, blah-blah, the list is endless... |

Let me find Mark’s talk where he outlines it all |
| # |
Mar 29th 2019, 09:52 |

Currently yes, but not once 4 is out |
| # |
Mar 29th 2019, 09:51 |

So they say, they will be fixing Cake 2 stuff, when something like php upgrades broke it |
| # |
Mar 29th 2019, 09:50 |
neon1024 |
So maybe not now, but soon you’ll want to think about leveraging newer code and php 7 |

I would expect Cake 4 to be released before the end of the year |
| # |
Mar 29th 2019, 09:49 |
neon1024 |
Do bear in mind that once Cake 4 is released Cake 2 will no longer be supported |

@neon1024 nope, just different backend admin theme, and fixing layout |
