Why does Spring Batch use 1 database connection for each thread?

问题

Stack:

Java 8
Spring Boot 1.5
Spring Batch 3.0.7
HikariCP 2.7.6

DataSource config:

batcdb (postgres)
readdb (oracle)
writedb (postgres)

Each datasource is using HikariCP with default 10 connections each.

Spring Batch config: ThreadExecutor-1:

core-pool-size: 10
max-pool-size: 10
throttle-limit: 10

Job-1 Config / ThreadPoolTaskExecutor: (pool sizes and throttle limit set via application.yml)

@Bean
public Step job1Step() {
    return stepBuilderFactory.get("job1Step")
            .<ReadModel, WriteModel>chunk(chunkSize)
            .reader(itemReader())
            .processor(compositeProcessor())
            .writer(itemWriter())
            .faultTolerant()
            .taskExecutor(job1TaskExecutor())
            .throttleLimit(throttleLimit)
            .build();
}

@Bean
public ThreadPoolTaskExecutor job1TaskExecutor() {
     ThreadPoolTaskExecutor pool = new ThreadPoolTaskExecutor();
     pool.setCorePoolSize(poolSize);
     pool.setMaxPoolSize(maxPoolSize);
     pool.setWaitForTasksToCompleteOnShutdown(false);
     return pool;
 }

@Bean
@StepScope
public Job1ItemReader job1ItemReader() {
    return new Job1ItemReader(readdb, pageSize);
}

Abbreviated Code for Job1-ItemReader

public class Job1ItemReader extends JdbcPagingItemReader<ReadModel> {
...
}

ThreadExecutor-2:

core-pool-size: 5
max-pool-size: 5
throttle-limit: 5

Job-2 Config / ThreadPoolTaskExecutor:

@Bean
public Step job2Step() throws Exception {
    return stepBuilderFactory.get("job2Step")
            .<ReadModel2, WriteModel2>chunk(chunkSize)
            .reader(job2ItemReader())
            .processor(job2CompositeProcessor())
            .writer(job2ItemWriter())
            .faultTolerant()
            .taskExecutor(job2TaskExecutor())
            .throttleLimit(throttleLimit)
            .build();
}

@Bean
public ThreadPoolTaskExecutor job2TaskExecutor() {
    ThreadPoolTaskExecutor pool = new ThreadPoolTaskExecutor();
    pool.setCorePoolSize(corePoolSize);
    pool.setMaxPoolSize(maxPoolSize);
    pool.setQueueCapacity(queueCapacity);
    pool.setWaitForTasksToCompleteOnShutdown(false);
    return pool;
}

@Bean
@StepScope
public Job2ItemReader job2ItemReader() {
    return new Job2ItemReader(readdb, pageSize);    
}

Abbreviated Code for Job2-ItemReader

public class Job2ItemReader extends JdbcPagingItemReader<ReadModel2> {
...
}

There are 2 jobs
Job-1 is long-running (multiple days)
Job-2 usually completes in a hour or 2, and runs on a schedule every day
Jobs are in the same 'application', running on the same JVM
Each Job has its own ThreadPoolTaskExecutor defined

When Job-1 is running, and Job-2 starts, Job-2 is unable to get a connection to the readdb. The following error is thrown by the Batch Reader of Job-2.

Ref:

multi-threaded step
Similar question/issue, except my transaction should be on the writedb, where in this case the HikariPool-3 is the readdb.

回答1:

The reason Spring Batch uses one database connection per thread (it can actually use more in certain situations), is due to transactions. Spring transactions are tied to a thread. Just about everything within Spring Batch happens within a transaction. So when you have a single job with a single thread, you'll use only a couple connections at most. However, if you have a multithreaded step, expect at least one connection per thread for the transaction handling.
