Hi list, as promised I have updated the mechanism description of the Service Fabric at http://www.amdatu.org/confluence/display/Amdatu/Service+Fabric. The current implementation in the sandbox is alpha but fuly functional. Constraint right now is that the discovery requires mcast over 8080 so a firewall may prevent you from doing this in a LAN.
Getting started: 1) Checkout http://subversion.amdatu.org/svn/amdatu/sandbox/bdekruijff/fabric 2) mvn package 3) install file:/path/to/jar 4) Done Obviously you will need to start multiple Amdatu nodes before any clustering happens and you need to publish a remotable service before you can start consuming it over the wire ;) Checkout the fabrictest artifact for inspiration. I will extend that soon Some things on the TODO list: 1) Make the whole thing manageable (FabricManager) 2) Support multiple logical clusters on one node (testing) 3) Extend management options and commands (testing/moitoring) 4) Support for ip-list based discovery (mcast optional) 5) Finetune Apache Tribes configuration (performance / security / trust) 6) Test! Let me know what you think. Grz Bram
