Bill, This is interesting about not using clustering.. Are you guys using CMP at all? If so, how do you suggest synching the entity beans without using clustering? On a site without CMP, you can usually get away from clustering, but wondering if you have used the equiv of Javelin to do distributed caching, deployed the CMPs a specific way, or just depend on pessimistic locking and the DB vendor.
