[jbosscache-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBCACHE-816) Create a CacheProxy to allow cache replication across WANs

Create a CacheProxy to allow cache replication across WANs ---------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBCACHE-816 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBCACHE-816 Project: JBoss Cache Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: Clustering Affects Versions: 1.4.0.GA, 2.0.0.GA Reporter: Manik Surtani Assignee: Manik Surtani Fix For: 3.1.0 Original Estimate: 3 weeks Remaining Estimate: 3 weeks This has to do with multiple JBoss Cache clusters deployed on LANs as islands, requiring a bridge between such islands. An ideal use case is where a cluster spans multiple data centres and would need to replicate across a WAN. The ideal strategy would be to allow for async bridging, since most calls would be colocated to a single LAN, but may fail over to a remote LAN (pretty much the same idea of async repl within a LAN, except that now we treat an entire LAN as a host. Sort of a meta-cluster). For more details and some brainstorming ideas, see: http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=JBossCacheAcrossDataCentres
