SQL queries are broadcast (and not actual modified rows). If
this is unacceptable, either the middleware or the application
must query such values from a single server and then use those
values in write queries. Also, care must be taken that all
values in write queries. Another option is to use this replication
option with a traditional master-slave setup, i.e. data modification
queries are sent only to the master and are propogated to the
slaves via master-slave replication, not by the replication
middleware. Care must also be taken that all
transactions either commit or abort on all servers, perhaps
using two-phase commit (<xref linkend="sql-prepare-transaction">
and <xref linkend="sql-commit-prepared">.
