                 Key: WOOKIE-134
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WOOKIE-134
             Project: Wookie
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Server
            Reporter: Scott Wilson
             Fix For: 0.8.3


Apache ActiveMQ with its Ajax integration[1] is an alternative option for 
widget communications to DWR; this would offer the benefit of a single 
messaging architecture for various kinds of inter-widget communications (wave, 
topic-based, session-based etc) that could enable the types of messaging to be 
easily extended.

On the "con" side it is pretty heavy and adds a lot of dependencies, plus it 
requires additional configuration in different containers (Jetty vs Tomcat etc) 
so would need more effort on the deployment side to get working correctly (i.e. 
another service to potentially go wrong). It also uses polling rather than 
comet, which could be an issue.

Overall I think its worth considering as part of the future roadmap.
