hi List, I am new to JCS world. For one of the web application to be develped requires caching and i am planning to use JCS. But i dont know how JCS will behave in web server farm environment. The exact problems is:
It is required to cache the data coming from Verity servers through web service. There will be a scheduler servelt which will be invoked at a sepcifice interval. This servlet will be required to make 10 web service calls to gather all the data required to cache. Because it is a news web application the interval between making 10 web service calls everytime is required to be as much little as possible. Now the problem is in production environment we have 8 different web servers running and will be having the same piece of code. so when all these web servers are started each of the scheduler servlet will be invoked to get the data from Verity server using web service so total no. of calls will be (8 * 10=80) which web service can not handle at a time and will ultimately degarde the performance. And the fact that all the servlet will be fetching the same data, is it possible to have only one of the web server makes request to get the data and put in cache using JCS? IF yes how? sample configuration or code if possible will be of gr8 use.
