|
|
The cluster channel is the main component of a small framework we've nicknamed Apache Tribes.<br>
|
|
The channel manages a set of sub components and together they create a group communication framework.<br>
|
|
This framework is then used internally by the components that need to send messages between different Tomcat instances.
|
|
<br>
|
|
A few examples of these components would be the SimpleTcpCluster that does the messaging for the DeltaManager,
|
|
or the BackupManager that uses a different replication strategy. The ReplicatedContext object does also
|
|
use the channel object to communicate context attribute changes.

<p><b><a href="cluster-membership.html">Channel/Membership</a>:</b> <br>
|
|
The Membership component is responsible for auto discovering new nodes in the cluster
|
|
and also to provide for notifications for any nodes that have not responded with a heartbeat.
|
|
The default implementation uses multicast.<br>
|
|
In the membership component you configure how your nodes, aka. members, are to be discovered and/or
|
|
divided up.
|
|

|
|
</p>
|
|
<p><b><a href="cluster-sender.html">Channel/Sender</a>:</b> <br>
|
|
The Sender component manages all outbound connections and data messages that are sent
|
|
over the network from one node to another.
|
|
This component allows messages to be sent in parallel.
|
|
The default implementation uses TCP client sockets, and socket tuning for outgoing messages are
|
|
configured here.<br>
|
|

</p>
|
|
<p><b><a href="cluster-sender.html#transport">Channel/Sender/Transport</a>:</b> <br>
|
|
The Transport component is the bottom IO layer for the sender component.
|
|
The default implementation uses non-blocking TCP client sockets.<br>
|
|

|
|
</p>
|
|
<p><b><a href="cluster-receiver.html">Channel/Receiver</a>:</b> <br>
|
|
The receiver component listens for messages from other nodes.
|
|
Here you will configure the cluster thread pool, as it will dispatch incoming
|
|
messages to a thread pool for faster processing.
|
|
The default implementation uses non-blocking TCP server sockets.<br>
|
|

|
|
</p>
|
|
<p><b><a href="cluster-interceptor.html">Channel/Interceptor</a>:</b> <br>
|
|
The channel will send messages through an interceptor stack. Because of this, you have the ability to
|
|
customize the way messages are sent and received, and even how membership is handled.<br>
