Distributed Object Cache for Clustering Entity Beans

[goonie]

Hello everyone,

I've read in the JBoss documentation that JBoss Entity Beans are somewhat limited in clustering: In order to guarantee actual data, each update has to be written through directly to the database and at the start of every new transaction, the state of an Entity has to be synchronized against the db.

This is because there is no distributed object cache for Entity EJBs (yet).

Are there any plans to implement such a beast?

Regards,

Andreas
