Data Consistency Development Tutorials, Guides & Insights

• Duplicate entries in the database.
• Incorrect data due to overwrites.
• Processes failing intermittently when run concurrently.

Add logs in your jobs to track execution and identify conflicts:

If the data changes frequently, use a timed cache:

   Cache::remember('shared_data', 3600, function () {
       return [
           'max_uploads' => 10,
           'api_rate_limit' => 100,
           'features' => [
               'uploads_enabled' => true,
               'comments_enabled' => false,
           ],
       ];
   });

• START TRANSACTION: Begins a new transaction.
• COMMIT: Saves the changes made in the transaction permanently.
• ROLLBACK: Reverts the changes made in the transaction.

START TRANSACTION;

INSERT INTO accounts (user_id, balance) VALUES (1, 100);

UPDATE accounts SET balance = balance - 50 WHERE user_id = 1;

COMMIT;
