Hi,

well that sounds interesting.

We recently came up here with a similar situation while discussing ideas. 
Bottom line was, that it would probably best to serialize the outer calls into 
some neutral "package" which is then transported through another service. This 
way the inner does act a pure gateway without the need to re-serialize each 
call - in fact, the gateway service needs not even to know what's in the 
package.

I was thinking about how this could be made somewhat more automated using 
Thrift. That would be great.

Betreff: Proxy Thrift call

Hi can anyone think of a way to proxy a a thrift call.

Essentially what I want is for client calls on a "master" server to
forward the request on to other designated servers.

I was thinking of overriding

Transport and Server to forward certain calls on.

I guess I would have to override protocol as well to get the name of
the method (to see if it requires forwarding)

Can anyone see problems with this approach ? Are there better ways ?

Thanks
