Read Concern "local"

A query with read concern "local" returns data from the instance with no guarantee that the data has been written to a majority of the replica set members (i.e. may be rolled back).

Read concern "local" is the default for:

Regardless of the read concern level, the most recent data on a node may not reflect the most recent version of the data in the system.

Availability

Read concern local is available for use with or without causally consistent sessions and transactions.

Read Concern "local" and Transactions

You set the read concern at the transaction level, not at the individual operation level. To set the read concern for transactions, see Transactions and Read Concern.

Starting in MongoDB 4.4, with feature compatibility version (fcv) "4.4" or greater, you can create collections and indexes inside a transaction. If explicitly creating a collection or an index, the transaction must use read concern "local". Implicit creation of a collection can use any of the read concerns available for transactions.

Example示例

Consider the following timeline of a write operation Write0 to a three member replica set:

Note

For simplification, the example assumes:

  • All writes prior to Write0 have been successfully replicated to all members.
  • Writeprev is the previous write before Write0.
  • No other writes have occured after Write0.

Then, the following tables summarizes the state of the data that a read operation with "local" read concern would see at time T.

Secondary1 Before t1 Data reflects Writeprev
Secondary1 After t1 Data reflects Write0
