Scalable Session Clustering

[biocity]

I'm trying to implement a scalable http session clustering solution using either JBoss/Jetty or JBoss/Tomcat.

We've managed to get clustering working for both of the above configurations, but the scalabilty of the model is worrying. It would seem that the session state is replicated to every node in the cluster/partition. This is not a scalable solution.

Are there any versions of JBoss/Jetty or Tomcat that support sub-partitions or some other solution to this problem?

How many nodes do you have in production? Which factual indicators made you worry? I've only seen very few situations were this was really a problem (I am speaking about non-theoritical problems)

BTW, sub-partitions is for 4.0.

I am new to jboss. Can you please help me with JBOSS session replication. I am using JBOSS 3.0.6 and I dont know how to enable JGStore.

From where do I download JGStore ?
What changes have to be made to jboss-service.xml ?

Thank you in advance
