Invoking multiple webservices from Action
hi
We currently have a SOA based application with a struts front end.
We have to invoke multiple webservices to get the data to render a single
page.
I was thinking of writing an Executor service inside an Action class or an
Interceptor to do this.
Is this the right approach ?
I would like the webservices to be invoked in parallel.
Are there any ParallelAction in struts.

In big enterprises everything is not controlled by one group. There will be
a big legacy out there. It is not just one or two webservices you call to
get the data. In our case, we had call around 12 webservices. Whatever
kind of optimization you do, it is difficult to beat what we can get out of
threading. I totally understand he multithreading is not allowed by servlet
specification, but we didn't had an option but to use it.

It's no so good to mess with threads on application server, as I
remember it's not allowed by servlet specification, you should use
given servlet specific approach.

Why? If it's so slow, try to optimize them.

I was hoping that this would be a common use case to warrant an existing
interceptor, which I could use out of the box.

You can choose to write your own threading mechanism to invoke the
webservices in parallel. That is what we do. We are using FJTask, which
has a neater Fork and join mechanism for invoking the threads in parallel.
