While there's no way to prioritize requests per se, you can play tricks
like the following:
1. Implement your reporting actions in one webapp, the cart actions in
another
2. Deploy the two webapps into two different on Tomcat
3. Create a for each service, where the reporting webapp's
contains more request processor threads than the cart's
webapp's
4. Each connector also uses an which specifies the thread
priority for the request processors
This gives you a kind of poor-man's prioritization.
Another thing you could do is deploy everything together, configure two
s for Tomcat, and then always use the high-priority
connector/port for reporting actions and always use the low-priority
connector/port for cart actions.
I have no idea what can or cannot be done with Comet, but it's
conceivable that you could do something like the following using Comet
(which IIRC allows a request to be handled by more than one thread):
1. When a Comet request comes in, put the request into a priority queue
that you write yourself, then take-out the top-priority request and
process it
2. The priority should probably depend on the following attributes of a
request:
a. The amount of time the request has been in the queue
b. The type of request (report or cart)
Of course, you really have to watch-out for requests being lost in the
queue if the number of Comet requests and the number of requests in the
queue don't match. Don't ask me how to do that.
Just a couple of ideas.
