Re: JavaSpaces (Blitz?) and hadoop - comparison?

Tomi,

It's been a while since I looked at JavaSpaces, but from what I recall, it's really more of a technology/spec that enables persistence and messaging/communication between distributed java components, but it doesn't implement MapReduce nor the distributed FS like Hadoop does.

Subject: JavaSpaces (Blitz?) and hadoop - comparison?

I just came across a technology which sounded interesting, but doesn't
seem very wide spread called JavaSpaces. An implementation is Blitz
(http://www.dancres.org/blitz/).

From what I see, it seems to be a distributed computation and
persistence engine so it made me wonder if anyone on this list would
know anything about it and, maybe, compare the two technologies. Well?
:)

Cheers,
