To overlap here a bit Can someone explain to me how you can use a stateless
session bean to cache information taken from a database. If the EJB is
stateless then where do you store the information.

Subject: Caching data in an stateful session EJB???
We are designing a system based on J2EE and EJB which needs to service
thousands
of client applications. Originally we thought that each client would
interact
with one stateful session EJB in order to collect & cache data pulled from
corporate databases. However, ass I've been reading more on EJBs, it sounds
like this may not be a very good approach in terms of scaling and
performance. If we use stateless session beans, where can we cache the
data retrieved from the database? We need the data for subsequent
calls to a rules-based engine to have it process and return information
which we then return to the client app. Then, as we collect information
from the client app, we need to combine this with the data from the
db to be able to make more requests to the rules-based engine. So we need
to cache it somewhere, but where?
The machines we're running this stuff on are HP K380 w/2 CPUs and
2 GB memory. We expect to start with 1000 simultaneous clients scaling
up to 6000 for the call center. Then we will have the web clients to
worry about on top of that, which will likely be 1000's more. Each channel
(web and call center) will have it's own HP K380 (2 cpus) running the
WebLogic app server.
Thanks in advance for any advice/information.
Jeff
