[jboss-user] [jBPM] - Re: jBPM5 - Can't Scale, Won't Scale

Timers seem to present challanges to scalabilty though.  For us it means we have to keep sessions with active processes in memory and manage them, and simply use the persistence mechanism for recovery from failure.  Clustering seems like alot of headache.  So what you're left with for scalabilty is some active grid solution where client requests are routed to the proper server.  I believe this is the solution Mauricio has been working on. We too would be interested in further discussion on this. -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [https://community.jboss.org/message/776514#776514] Start a new discussion in jBPM at Community [https://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
