Yup, that worked just fine! I wrote the example you showed at ApcheCon in Java to test it out, and I was now wondering if it is possible to run the two performers in that ensemble in separate hosts. I suppose this would be akin to Akka's 'remoting' (http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/snapshot/java/remoting.html).
I saw some of the examples in GitHub but it isn't quite clear to me what I need to set in order for the performers to be able to communicate in that scenario. Are there any settings I can specify in the orchestration json to point to the remote host that would be running the other performer? PS: Thanks for the quick reply yesterday!
