[jira] [Commented] (IGNITE-3568) .NET: Start JVM externally

["Pavel Tupitsyn (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IGNITE-3568?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16089634#comment-16089634 ] 

Pavel Tupitsyn commented on IGNITE-3568:
----------------------------------------

I think we need some kind of a universal inter-process communication protocol which will allow creating thin clients in any language.

As for .NET, as soon as server nodes are started with {{Apache.Ignite.exe}}, we can provide all the features we have AND with the same API. The difference is that user will call {{Ignition.Start(new IgniteClientConfiguration(...))}}. Instead of current JNI approach we'll connect to a node via some IPC, and most of the code should remain as is.

> Currently we start JVM inside .NET process. This is not good for several reasons:
> 1) Broken isolation - only one JVM can exist per process. This way it is impossible to start two Ignite instances with different JVM options.
> 2) JVM startup is expensive, cluster connection is expensive, and process must host both Java and .NET heaps. Should we have external JVM to connect to, we would allow for truly thin clients, when dozens thin processes will be able to work with the same client. We already see growing demand for this feature,
