update documentation for http://community.jboss.org/wiki/MultipleTiersofCaches ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: ISPN-878 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-878 Project: Infinispan Issue Type: Task Reporter: Mircea Markus Assignee: Mircea Markus Fix For: 5.0.0.Final Update http://community.jboss.org/wiki/MultipleTiersofCaches as follows: Feedback from Galder: though, the text in the diagram is very very small and can hardly be read. Maybe you can improve it a little? Feedback from Manik: Also some more feedback: * Spelling: "Multi-Tiered", not "Multiered" * Your diagram probably wants to demonstrate 2 separate tiers, not just 1 client with a clustered server backend. E.g., FE1 --- FE2 --- FE3 =============== BE1 --- BE2 --- BE3 where FE = front-end servers (embedded, maybe an app server running a webapp, with an embedded Infinispan instance as a "near cache") BE = backend, dedicated cache tier, running Hot Rod endpoints FE configured with RemoteCacheStore, and also using Invalidation so that FE's can invalidate each other BE's running DIST for max addressable space + ultimate scalability This way, with the FE's running in INVAL mode, it doesn't matter if the BE's cannot communicate changes back to the FE's, since the FE's wil already know about changes and will invalidate accordingly.
