MINA TCP/IP server clustering

[Kumaran Arul <AK...@woolworths.com.au>]

Hi 


Has anyone got any experience with clustering MINA servers at a JVM
level? 

How can we replicate IoSessions? Would Terracotta be a good choice?

Any lead or tips will be greatly appreciated?



Regards
Arul

Erm...  unless MINA has added SCTP support, an IoSession is rather  
bound to a single host/port which doesn't lend itself to replication  
very well, I don't think.

I wrote an implementation of GCache (Geronimo Cache) that is in the
Geronimo sandbox.  Its a clustering implementation based on Mina.  Its
nto complete yet, but it gives you an idea.

It is not JVM level, since it API based.  If you are looking for an open
source impl for a JVM based clustering container, have a look at Terracotta.

A google with the keywords " load balancing terracotta " confirmed my 
earlier understanding
http://www.terracotta.org/confluence/display/wiki/Load+Balancers

That is, Terracotta shares all data between the machines so it therefore 
doesn't do load balancing.

Of course if you are looking for something else than load balancing, 
Terracotta might do what you want. It all depends on what you want to 
achieve with the clustering.
