Willem D [http://community.jboss.org/people/willemd] created the discussion "JBoss + protocol buffers?" To view the discussion, visit: http://community.jboss.org/message/636253#636253 -------------------------------------------------------------- I have a relatively open question - hope it is allowed. The idea I have is to write an offline client-side application.  I want to "synchronise" client-server state every once in a while (synchronisation is triggered by a user on the client-side).  There are one or two 'long-running processes' on the server side (also initiated by a client-side user).  Here is the general idea:    database <-- jdbc --> jboss <-- protocol buffers --> client application Would this work?  Is JBoss an overkill for this type of application? -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/636253#636253] Start a new discussion in Beginner's Corner at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
