James Todd commented on AVRO-405: --------------------------------- i'll grab this one as we work through the initial blocking netty patch. > Netty-based Java RPC server > --------------------------- > > Key: AVRO-405 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-405 > Project: Avro > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: java > Reporter: Todd Lipcon > Assignee: James Todd > Attachments: AVRO-405-for-review.patch, netty-avro.zip > > > A nonblocking RPC server based on Netty should be more scalable than the > current implementation. > We should provide two mechanisms for interfacing the RPC server to the > implementations: > 1) "Blocking" RPC implementations run inside a worker threadpool. > Implementators would not know that they're working in a non-blocking context. > 2) "Event-driven" RPC implementations that receive requests and some kind of > request context. They are responsible for eventually calling > context.respond(response) or somesuch. This would allow more scalable > interaction with downstream services. > I propose we focus on (1) first. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
