Hey
all,
I am
trying to run JBoss on one computer, and Orion on another (soon to be replaced
with Jetty). I want to simulate a multi-tier setup so that we can scale on
both web and middle tiers. When I deployed ejbs and servlets in same
container, all was fine. Never tried using Orion in two separate JVMs to
access EJBs in one container from the other container. I got one reply on the
forums saying to just look up the EJB name, not the java:comp/env/ejb/Name. My
worry is that this would break an application if you have to change every
reference to getting EJB's. So how can I get one servlet container to get
access to any EJB container (any = one or more because when you scale your
load balancer (i assume) would send the request to get an ejb to a server
based on load).
I'd
appreciate any examples, or any links to show how to do this. I tried the
jboss.org documentation but it didn't really have this example. For those
responsible for the jboss docs, I think this would be a very beneficial topic
to include in the tutorial section. A lot of people would be interested in
this no doubt as multi-tier is one of the big reasons to move to J2EE, to
separate your business logic into its own tier so that you can scale the web
tier or the middle tier separately as needed.
Thanks guys/gals, appreciate any
help.
