My datomic cloud is systematically giving busy anomaly errors very often as soon as there are a few more requests. I was expecting it to have high availability but I can’t seem to see it in action It’s setup with the production topology using i3.xlarge with 2 instances. Not sure which metric to look at but the cpu usage of the servers always seems low, does not pass 15%. I also don’t see the indexes being used. I also tried increasing the number of instances in the auto scaling group but to no avail, still get the same issue.
Take note that I’m set up that I have a jetty server on ELB which is doing requests through a vpc endpoint. Not sure what to do next or how to debug or what changes to do to resolve the issue. Please help.
As per your support, I restarted the instances and it resolved the issue of the busy anomalies.
Also according to support: the symptoms are matching a couple of issues that have recently been identified. One of which, we are still working on a fix for that will be included in the next release of cloud and another which we’ve already released a fix for around Valcache Cleanup/ Node.js end of life. As such, I would recommend that you upgrade to our latest release 470-8654.1. This release includes the fix for Valcache cleanup which has similar symptoms as you’ve described and is a critical notice upgrade with a recommendation to upgrade as soon as possible due to the AWS End of Life of the node.js runtime is used to create support functions for cloud.
