[Ming Fai Ma (JIRA)]

    [ https://jira.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-39?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12548787#action_12548787 ] 

Ming Fai Ma commented on ISPN-39:
---------------------------------

just for your reference, Hazelcast provide distributed execution with simple APIs:
http://www.hazelcast.com/documentation.jsp#DistributedExecution

map-reduce would be more powerful but it may be a good idea to support a simple scenario to send a Runnable to run on another node. 

Hazelcast is probably the only distributed execution framework that cannot transfer class definition on the wire. Gridgain and DAC (http://www.dacframe.org/trac/dac/, i never tried this one) can send class definition to other nodes for execution. The wiki page doesn't seem to have mentioned whether it will support transferring class definition.
