Hello Apache Droids developers,
In the apache droids project which I have mentioned in the previous post
we are using following droids atchtecture.
1. DaemonDroid - this the top level management droid which is serving
incoming tasks to the special oriented droids (like PassportDroid,
SearchDroid).
2. PassportDroid/SearchDroid/.. - the is the middle layer specific droids.
3. CrawlerDroid - and low level droids, who are doing the real crawling
work (it controls by the middle layer droids, like PassportDroid).
So, this is the temporaty solution, and we are looking and waiting for
the real droids administration application approach.
Thorsten mentioned that you are have an eye on JMX technology - ok that
is great.
There is one more possible solution - OSGi framework.
There are some significant votes for this:
1. OSGi is Eclipse basis runtime (no comments).
2. OSGi is the popular basement for some significant opensource projects
(for example Jade, which is the Java Agent Development Framework).
3. OSGi is the platform in some big proprietary business (like BMW).
With Best Regards,
Alexander Zazhigin.
