Re: Embedded JavaSpaces

Embedded JavaSpaces is indeed very powerful configuration...

GigaSpaces provide embedded JavaSpace for a long time.

Here are some important notes regarding embedded JavaSpaces:
- Performance - We have managed to provide 100,000 read/write/take per
second performance with our latest 4.1 version with the embedded JavaSpace
configuration.
- Cluster - You can build a cluster that combines both remote and embedded
spaces to share the load or replicate data to each other. The cluster
configuration and space location (embedded or remote) is transparent to the
application.
- Complexity - building an embedded JavaSpace is not a simple task. There
are many delicate issues around this. We have spent lot of efforts tuning
this type of configuration to work successfully. In fact many of our
customers using this configuration very successfully in real time production
systems.
- Community Edition - Our free community edition provides the embedded
JavaSpace built in. So Just use our community edition.

Subject: Embedded JavaSpaces

I've Googled around a bit and haven't had much success finding
examples of folks using an embedded JavaSpace in their applications.
It's not possible to run an embedded JavaSpace with the starter kit
(Porter) code, is it? I belive Blitz and GigaSpaces both have embedded
implementations--are there any others? I imagined it wouldn't be hard
to write one though I'm not sure my skills are up to the task. Any
comments? Links?

In my specific application I have work I want to expose to remote
workers via a JavaSpace but I think it would work well to have workers
local to my application as well. So I imagine having two Spaces--one
local and one remote--that allow me to selectively remote my work or
not. I'd be interested in other implementation ideas too, though I'm
curious about the issue of embedded JavaSpaces...

Thanks!

Jeff
