I was toying with idea to use Terracotta as a possible clustering solution for Cayenne ORM. Thought it can be used selectively for the "cache" parts of the stack. But there are better, more targeted ways to do cache syncing. The other thing - reattaching to the cluster would only require terracotta if there is an uncommitted state in the context, so that's more of a session persistence task (WO, not EOF). So while the technology looks nice, I still don't see enough motivation to try it for real with an ORM.

The issue is that EOF's problem is not that it's CPU or memory bound, its problem is that it is a single-lock basically non- concurrent architecture.

Yes, now that Wonder has better stack synching between and within instances this might only be interesting if your stack has enormous memory requirements.

Using it for the appserver layer is potentially interestesting, but it's hard to get classloader separation within WO to be able to set it up properly.

Hmm. Ideally this could (among other things) enable persistent sessions, in that you might have an app instance (or collection of instances) running over a cluster whose members can join or leave the cluster without disruption.
