Agreed. Ideally the console would be served up from the DC, as it's the most natural
fit; however the DC and HC process need to have minimal overhead.
All I am trying to say it that you loose flexibility when you tie them together.
Whatever deployment consideration taken for the console will then directly affect the DC
or REST interface.
I.e. moving the console to the DMZ (demilitarized zone), would require exposing the DC or
REST interface there as well.
Do you know what I mean? Hence the idea to keep it decoupled and rely on the java protocol
underneath.
Why is everyone so afraid of extra network hops and serialization overhead?
I think we are going to have a kickass remoting protocol, no?
