[infinispan-dev] Update on qi4j Infinispan Store

Hi guys, just a short update about the status of the Infinispan (S3) Store: -Code is ugly, not production ready, but running flawlessly -Infinispan memory cache eviction mechanism is based on a memory threshold (i.e. you specify 100MB of memory for the cache in the store config) -RHQ monitoring with Infinispan plugin works (beautifully) -Entries are gzipped on S3 (patch now included in infinispan-alpha1) -Wicket load balancing is done with infinispan (custom pagestore) -I use a directory structure for qi4j identities ("Entity1/key1") and there is a webdav interface to it (I can mount qi4j's store in Finder) -EC2 S3_PING is used in jgroups to join the cluster of qi4j stores -Each qi4j uow is transaction backed with rollback support (I currently use Atomikos as TM - not fully tested) -S3 (blobstore) acces is using Infinispan synchronous and transacted mode -EC2 images only contain the wicket web interface with a jetty https connector / when added to amazon elastic load balancer, infinispan connects to the cache cluster and wicket begins to server load balanced requests - yep, just like that Current performance, as reported by RHQ, from EC2 to S3, is around 60ms per read/write from S3 (rough average). I have not yet done elastic load balancing load tests with loadStorm. I don't know any NOSQL alternative offering a permanent transacted monitored compressed Finder-mounted clustered load-balanced store ;-) Phil
