Problem/Motivation

The current naming isn't clear, which is why #2541432: Follow-up for #2231595: Document why ChainedFastBackend cannot use BackendChain had to add docs to explain the difference. A better name would've made that clear.

Proposed resolution

Fix naming. Go back to the original name @msonnabaum was suggesting perhaps?

Remaining tasks

Do it.

User interface changes

None.

API changes

TBD

Data model changes

None.

Thank you for creating this issue to improve Drupal.

We are working to decide if this task is still relevant to a currently supported version of Drupal. There hasn't been any discussion here for over 8 years which suggests that this has either been implemented or is no longer relevant. Your thoughts on this will allow a decision to be made.

Since we need more information to move forward with this issue, the status is now Postponed (maintainer needs more info). If we don't receive additional information to help with the issue, it may be closed after three months.

Thanks!

This actually came up recently on #3526080: Reduce write contention to the fast and consistent backend in ChainedFastBackend. We can rename classes easily now with the bc classloader, just needs a new name.

What about ChainedConsistentBackend?

Version: 11.x-dev » main

Drupal core is now using the main branch as the primary development branch. New developments and disruptive changes should now be targeted to the main branch.
