Has anybody given a serious look at Avalon Merlin
Service Management Framework and how it compares to
others?
Reading this from Avalon web site was quite
interesting:
<quote>
Each of these initative, from complex system such as
the James enterprise messaging platform through to
utility components such as the Cornerstone component
suite (thread pools, persistence, task scheduling,
etc.) can be <b>represented in Merlin as pluggable
services within a composite component context</b>.

This is also true for Jetspeed Cornerstone. In fact we have gone into
identifying the fractal properties of Cornerstone (refer to the slide
titled Fractal Properties in the presentation
http://www.bluesunrise.com/jetspeed-docs/CornerstoneFramework2.pdf), one
of which is the fact that all Cornerstone components and services (can
be proxies to foreign components and services), however complex or
trivial they are, are configurable/customizable/pluggable in all 4
dimensions: 1) component; 2) relationship; 3) control flow; 4)
customization preserved over time.
It opens all kinds of possibilities...
Yes, completely agreed.

David.
