There is no easy answer to tis question :) Depends on what is being 'copied' in the serialized object. OpenJPA does provide a facility known as RemoteCommitProvider [1] that can transmit/broadcast committed instances (not in their serialized form but only their persistent identities) to other processes over a variety of transport protocols (TCP, JMS etc.). This out-of-the-box facility may serve your purpose.
