Netty-based Java RPC server
---------------------------
Key: AVRO-405
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-405
Project: Avro
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: java
Reporter: Todd Lipcon
Assignee: Todd Lipcon
A nonblocking RPC server based on Netty should be more scalable than the
current implementation.
We should provide two mechanisms for interfacing the RPC server to the
implementations:
1) "Blocking" RPC implementations run inside a worker threadpool.
Implementators would not know that they're working in a non-blocking context.
2) "Event-driven" RPC implementations that receive requests and some kind of
request context. They are responsible for eventually calling
context.respond(response) or somesuch. This would allow more scalable
interaction with downstream services.
I propose we focus on (1) first.
