I am starting this discussion in order to gather the maximum possible feedback about the features we want our clustering engine to have.
Here is my view on the subject: a) Support auto discovery of nodes (via multicast and / or unicast). b) Configuration replication (replicate configuration changes across the nodes). c) Features/Repositories replication (replicate feature repositories and states). d) Bundle state replication (replicate bundle states). e) Event Admin (broadcast events across the nodes of the cluster). f) Distributed Service Registry. -- *Ioannis Canellos* * http://iocanel.blogspot.com Apache Karaf <http://karaf.apache.org/> Committer & PMC Apache ServiceMix <http://servicemix.apache.org/> Committer *
