Load Balancer
|
|
|
Introduction
Load Balancer is an element of the K2 architecture that can be used to distribute the load among multiple application servers. The K2 API thus has the ability to connect to multiple application servers simultaneously. When sending a request, the least busy server is evaluated first and it receives the request for processing.
Picture: Load Balancer and K2 API
Example of using Load Balancer and K2 API:
The K2 API receives the request for processing. Load Balancer is addressed for the fastest request processing. The Load Balancer sends a request to all ASs and finds out their current load. It evaluates the least busy server and passes this information to the K2 API. The K2 API thus sends the request directly via the selected application server to the Load Balancer.
LoadBalancer can also be used for web K2, which when the user logs on, finds the most suitable application server and connects the user to it.
Picture: Load Balancer and Web K2
Example of using Load Balancer and Web K2:
Web K2 accepts the user's login request. The web K2 Load Balancer will contact the request to process the request as quickly as possible. The Load Balancer sends a request to all AS and finds out their current load. Web K2 passes the information on the least busy server. Web K2 will use the best evaluated server and thus the fastest processing of the user's login request will take place. Every other request of a given user is already processed by a specific selected AS.
Each K2 API and K2 web installation has its own Load Balancer. In the installation, you can set a specific list of application servers and the configuration of the Load Balancer, which can affect the algorithm for selecting a suitable application server.
Load Balancer evaluates the most suitable application server for request processing in two modes:
- Loading and evaluating the best AS before each connection request (preLoadingEnabled = false)
- Before each request to create a connection, the application servers are bypassed with a request for their statistics, which are processed and evaluated. The most appropriate AS is then used for the given request.
- Load and evaluate the best AS continuously (preLoadingEnabled = true)
- Statistics are read in the specified time interval and the best AS is evaluated. Each connection request is evaluated based on the calculated result of the statistics.
|
|
|
Load Balancer parameters
- requestTimeout:(default 1s) Each connection request is evaluated based on the calculated result of the statistics. If a connection fails with the AS by this time, or the AS does not respond by this time, the AS will be dropped for this particular evaluation. Upon the next request, it will be added to the list of possible application servers again.
- validTimeout: (default 0 u preLoadingEnabled = false, 1000- preLoadingEnabled = true) - the time for which the detected statistics and thus the best AS are valid.
- maxHistoryCount:(default 0) - number of records in history. If the number is 0, the history is not recorded. It is used only for debugging the optimal setting of parameters, when we can look into the history of the distribution of requests and adjust the parameters accordingly.
- preLoadingEnabled:(default false) - enable / disable mode with continuous loading of statistics. If set to true, then validTimeout means the time interval in which the statistics are updated.
- The appServers section defines the application servers that will be used by the Load Balancer. The default is the one used in the K2 API / K2 Web configuration
- Ex. for K2 API (Web K2 is similar only, configuration is done in JSON) "<add server =". "pipe =" ScriptService "/>”
- server: IP or PC name
- pipe: pipe AS name
- the multiplier section is used to set the weight of individual statistics and thus to influence the calculation algorithm
- Ex. for K2 API (Web K2 is similar only, configuration is done in JSON) <add uid="bscSystemCPUAvg" value="1"/>"
- uid: statistic identifier
bscSystemCPUAvg - average CPU usage over time
bscSystemFreeMemory - currently free operation memory
bscAppPoolSpandAvg - average waiting time for the K2 AS request before it is serviced
bscAppNCLSessions - number of connected web K2 users
bscAppAnonymousSessions - number of anonymous threads for K2 API
bscAppSchedulerSessions - number of running scheduled tasks
- value: the value by which the received statistic value will be multiplied by AS. This makes it possible to influence the weight of a given parameter.
A value of 0 disables the evaluation of this parameter during the calculation.
If in any mode the Load Balancer does not connect with the AS in the required time interval, or the AS does not supply statistics in the specified time, it is excluded from the evaluation for the given AS pass. In the next pass, the Load Balancer will try to connect to the AS again.

Banking API for KB - Notification of new movements on the account
The option to enable receiving notifications about new movements on the account has been added to the connection to Komerční Banka's banking API. This functionality at KB exists to bypass the limit on the number of queries per hour on their API. Every time a transaction occurs, it sends a message to the K2 API that this change has occurred, and K2 can immediately download information about new movements on the account after receiving this information. If this action is enabled in K2, transactions are automatically withdrawn from the account.
Two buttons have been added in the banking API settings in the book of bank accounts. With the "Log in to KB" button, the user can start the action of logging in to their account, so that they can enable the downloading of information from their account and do not have to start it when downloading the information in the bank statements itself. In order to press this button, he/she must first fill in the K2 API URL.
Once the user is logged in and their access information is stored in K2, pressing the second button, which is used to turn on/off the notification service, is enabled. The text value also indicates the current on/off status of this service. If this service is turned on, information about new movements on the account should be automatically downloaded to K2. Currently, all transactions that are no more than a day old are downloaded each time, older transactions must be downloaded manually.

Cash register stock taking
A new Cash register stock taking function was created, which is used to compare the actual state of banknotes on the cash register with the balance of the cash register in accounting.
The function is started above the last cash document in the book of cash documents from the Ribbon, tab Functions. After starting the Cash register stock taking function, the balance in the selected cash register book will be recalculated and the "Enumeration" form will open. In the form, the user fills in the actual amount of banknotes and coins from the cash register, moves with the mouse or arrows and presses the Enter key to enter the value. After pressing the Difference button, the difference between the data entered in the enumeration and the cash balance in accounting will be calculated. If the difference were other than 0, the field for writing a comment will be activated, where the user writes the reason for the difference. We save the stock taking with the Save button and then we can print it with the Print button. The function ends with the Save and exit button.
It is possible to edit the enumeration so that the stock taking of cash registers function is started again above the cash document with the completed stock taking. A Enumeration form is displayed with saved values that the user can correct, save and reprint. The information from the enumeration is saved in the xml header field of the receipt. A blue "i" icon will appear in the preview for the receipt for which the stock taking was created.
Cash register stock taking can be performed for cash registers in CZK, EUR, HUF, PLN and $. In the menu in the Enumeration form, it is possible to use the function Editing banknotes and coins for currencies, where you can add another currency or edit banknotes and coins of one of the existing currencies.

Overview of the amount of the insurance premium - adjustment, cancellation
The report [b][i]Overview of insurance premiums[/i][/b] (MZD_VYSR.AM) was modified.
In the case of a correction report or cancellation, it is necessary to set the XML_TYPE parameter to the corresponding value and also set the parameters - XML_corrIDStorna and XML_Note. The program warns about this again if the report is started with a parameter such as correction or cancellation and these parameters are not filled.
If the ElectronicSubmissionBook parameter is filled in at the same time, i.e. reports are sent via [i]Electronic submission[/i], then the program will ask whether to read the identifier of the canceled/corrected report from the book for electronic submissions. After answering YES, the [i]Electronic submissions[/i] book opens and the corrected/cancelled overview is selected with ENTER or double-click on the corresponding record. This will load the submission number into the XML_corrIDStorna parameter and there is no need to fill in this parameter manually.

Calculation of leave entitlement
Long-term absences entered in the employment relationship are now taken into account when calculating the assumed leave entitlement. If there are no specified absences, then the future, as before, is taken as a fully worked out assumption.
Therefore, if we want the calculation to take into account any absence during the year that we already know will occur, then it is necessary to enter it in the items on [i]Employment relationship - Long-term absences[/i] to calculate the assumed leave entitlement.
Long-term absences will be taken into account wherever the assumed leave entitlement is calculated. So in these cases:
- Calculation of leave entitlement at the beginning of the year or relationship
- Recalculation of leave entitlement when entering the date of termination of the employment relationship
- Button [i] When changing the calendar[/i] on page [i]Before calculation[/i] in the book [i]Wage data[/i]
Long-term absences are used under certain conditions even if the [i]Entitlement calculation[/i] button is used on the [i]Before calculation[/i] page in the [i]Wage data[/i] book - here the entitlement is calculated for the current period from the values ??actually calculated and the future period (or also the current period, if the control calculation is not started) is taken as fully worked (this is therefore an assumption), if long-term absences are not entered on the employment relationship. Therefore, if we want the calculation to take into account any absence during the year that we already know will occur, then it needs to be entered in the items on [i]Employment relationship - Long-term absences.[/i]

Analysis of shopping cart
[b]Shopping Cart Analysis[/b] is a new feature designed to offer the customer additional related items they want or need while shopping, thereby increasing sales.
The analysis processes the selected data for the selected period. From this data, it generates a set of rules in the form of "if there is product X in the basket, there is also product Y". Each such rule connects two types of article by a link. The resulting product combinations can be linked as "related", this related product will then be displayed as recommended on the e-shop.
The analysis includes 3 scripts:
- [i]DataMining_Parameters.pas[/i] - setting parameters and selecting data for analysis
- [i]DataMining.pas[/i] - analysis calculation
- [i]DataMining_Results.pas[/i] - display of results and links to related goods
The results of the analysis can also be used only for listing the results, thanks to which a better overview of sales in the company can be obtained.
