Hi Raj
Regarding Tomcat, when I start the WSO2-ESB it starts an embedded Tomcat
server. I assumed the Synapse did so too and runs as a servlet in Tomcat
and relied on Tomcat container for features such as clustering.
No.. support for clustering is provided by Axis2 clustering support
(which relies on some Tomcat stuff AFAIK)
Please correct me if I am wrong here.
Yes we do like the fact Synapse uses NIO out of the box.
Yes, a servlet transport is inherently blocking, and will not scale to
handle over a few hundred connections, like what NIO can do..
cheers
