Hi, All,
I have read this forum for a while and learned a lot from you. Now I am thinking to
redesign my catalog management component using EJB and hope to get some advises from
you.
I am designing a B2B catalog based net marketplace solution (not product since I am
working for an Application-Service-Provider company .:)), which supposes have a huge
catalog content and allows buyers to browse/search the catalog with different price
programs from different sellers, and allows seller or suppliers to change their
catalogs and their price programs. I have three architectures in mind:
1. using JSP ---> Servlet ---> JDBC ---> RDBMS. Do object cache in both session level
and application level. This way we have to code our own cache system. Perfomance
should be OK. But no cache can share between different JVM, which increases the
database hits. ( I used this architecture in my previous B2C commerce server product,
the number of database hits was the bottle neck for performance. So I believe the
object caching is neccessary.)
2. using JSP ---> Servlet ---> BMP Entity Beans ---> JDBC ---> RDBMS. This way EJB
container will do the object cache for us. But since the catalog intends to be big
(the number of EJB objects will be huge), I think the overhead from EJB container will
be too much.
3. uisng JSP ---> Servlet ---> RMI caching server ---> JDBC ---> RDBMS. This way, time
to market will be problem since we have to develop that multithreadeed RMI caching
server. Also scalibity will be a protential problem.
I know there have be many threads in the forum discussing related issues. But I still
hope some of you have being dealing with the similar problem will give me some advises.
Thanks in advance.
Best,
Jing
