Hi,
I am also interested in using jBPM in clustered environment, but as far as I can tell jBPM
does not provide a solution for clustering. For example which nodes would ksessions and
process instances be active in ? How to load balance/route requests and events (eg. start
task, complete task, async, etc) to appropriate ksessions/process instances ? Which
ksessions would timers expire in ? How to deal with concurrent branches (eg. all branches
of parallel gateway for a process instance must be active in same ksession vs. can have
multiple branches of same process instance active in different cluster nodes, etc). How to
make the solution highly-available ?
It would be good if experts could comment on this and provide a clear picture of how jBPM
works in truly clustered and horizontally scaled environment.
And perhaps if there are upcoming enhancements to address challenges in this area it would
be good to get some visibility on this.
Also, if there are some common approaches to addressing these challenges with current jBPM
versions I would be extremely interested to hear of these.
