Hi I have a few questions
Was wondering if there is any documentation on bootstrapping the JXTA in
order to facilitate cross sub-net/firewall communications?
Also any documents on writing your own SPI like JXTA SPI? For example
app servers have their own communication layer, ie: JBoss/JGroups, I
would like to see how to hook in an already running JGroups in JBoss
into Shoal's SPI layer.
Does Shoal take into account the fact that a component could saturate
the network with messages and in affect possibly take down the Shoal
cluster? IE: If I pump shoal full of large messages, this could in
effect stop shoal's heartbeat responses? Does shoal try to do any kind
of smart marshalling of messages to ensure that network saturation does
not happen?
I believe also I read somewhere that there are plans to support cluster
splits or partitioning. IE: If a network glitch or a network splits, we
would in effect have two sub-clusters. Eventually the network would
come back and these clusters would come back together and join.
TIA
Mike
