> Brokers use the xbean configuration to start which is usually found in ./conf other other places on the local disk. In a NOB topology however it is hard to distribute the configuration files and maintain them across brokers especially with a growing or elasticly changing number of brokers.
> ActiveMQ already supports reading the xbean configuration from an http;// URL, so it would be very helpful to have a rest service that manages the configuration for all the brokers. 
> I started such a service on [github|https://github.com/hzbarcea/activemq-nob] but plan to contribute it to ASF once it's in a decent shape, in a couple of weeks or so.
> The service uses the local file system and appropriate conventions to store all the relevant broker configuration resources (e.g. could be generated with ./bin/activemq create <instance> minus certificates probably). I plan to enhance it later to support a git repository for the configuration, so that it's versioned, so that an operator could roll out a new NOB topology, or roll back to the previous configuration.
> Feedback appreciated.
