Chuck, Apologies for the confusion. Let me rephrase it,
Currently, we have multiple Tomcat nodes running on a single or on different physical machines with each having its own object pool (consider we have a pool of java String object but not connection pool) i.e., an object pool per node. The requirement is to share this pool of objects across Tomcat nodes. Is there any such implementation that we can readily use to achieve this?
