I am sure infinispan/JGroups has possibility to run in non-multicast
environment. You may just need to figure how exactly to configure it. So
I agree that this issue is more related to Wildfly/Infinispan itself
than to Keycloak.
You may need to use jgroups protocols like TCP instead of default UDP
and maybe TCPPING (this requires to manually list all your cluster
nodes. But still, it's much better option IMO than rewriting UserSession
SPI)
Btv. if TCPPING or S3_PING is an issue, there is also AWS_PING
http://www.jgroups.org/manual-3.x/html/protlist.html#d0e5100 , but it's
not official part of jgroups.
