[xmlblaster-devel] clustering

[David Kantowitz <davidk at aeonics.com>]

Hello,

Just a quick idea to drop in the mix for clustering.

Have you considered using a group communication protocol instead of a
master/slave routing tree?

See:
  http://javagroups.sourceforge.net/
  http://www.cs.cornell.edu/Info/Projects/Ensemble/index.htm

JavaGroups provides an implementation in java of several different
protocol stacks. Ensemble is written in ML, but there are C++ stacks
available for the Ensemble protocol.

There is plenty of material to fan out from these two links.

I think JBoss is (or has?) built their new clustering support on top
of JavaGroups.

Best regards,
David K.
