It add additional required fixes:
- Fixed uncommitted deleted tx records
- Fixed JDBC authorization on test
- Using property-based version for commons-dbcp2
- stopping thread pool after activation to allow JDBC lease locks to release the lock
- centralize JDBC network timeout configuration and save repeating it
- adding dbcp2 as the default pooled DataSource to be used
Both authentication and authorization will hit the underlying security
repository (e.g. files, LDAP, etc.). For example, creating a JMS
connection and a consumer will result in 2 hits with the *same*
authentication request. This can cause unwanted (and unnecessary)
resource utilization, especially in the case of networked configuration
like LDAP.
There is already a rudimentary cache for authorization, but it is
cleared *totally* every 10 seconds by default (controlled via the
security-invalidation-interval setting), and it must be populated
initially which still results in duplicate auth requests.
This commit optimizes authentication and authorization via the following
changes:
- Replace our home-grown cache with Google Guava's cache. This provides
simple caching with both time-based and size-based LRU eviction. See more
at https://github.com/google/guava/wiki/CachesExplained. I also thought
about using Caffeine, but we already have a dependency on Guava and the
cache implementions look to be negligibly different for this use-case.
- Add caching for authentication. Both successful and unsuccessful
authentication attempts will be cached to spare the underlying security
repository as much as possible. Authenticated Subjects will be cached
and re-used whenever possible.
- Authorization will used Subjects cached during authentication. If the
required Subject is not in the cache it will be fetched from the
underlying security repo.
- Caching can be disabled by setting the security-invalidation-interval
to 0.
- Cache sizes are configurable.
- Management operations exist to inspect cache sizes at runtime.
