What kind of grid integration in Seam are you looking for? I am asking because currently we are running an early access program for Cacheonix, so this maybe a good time to ask for a feature (and get it :)

2. Re: Seam Support for Grid Technologies?
bswenka Jun 1, 2008 5:52 AM (in response to bswenka)Hello Slava, Thanks for your response.
I'm looking for intelligent integration of Seam with the
grid space
. For example, GigaSpaces uses JavaSpaces for it's core component model, while Seam has it's own component model. I'd like Seam's component model and JPA provider/implementation to intelligently work with an application grid and data grid, and any associated grid component models.Maybe I can ask the question a different way - to your knowledge, does Seam integrate nicely with your product? I apologize, I'm not very familiar with Cacheonix - could we swap the JPA/Hibernate provider in Seam with a data grid version from Cacheonix?
We're building our app using Seam and JPA for persistence. (backed by Hibernate and MySQL)
We are a startup and initially will have relatively low usage volumes. We are planning to deploy to Amazon's EC2 and I want to be have dynamic scalability for our entire application stack, so we can handle large usage spikes when necessary.We are very happy with Seam's productivity and I just want to make sure our app can scale all the way down to the data tier when we need it. Data grid solutions seem like a good solution, though I must confess I'm not (yet) a data grid expert.
I would be happy to participate/help test this with your product. Please let me know if you have any other questions for me?
Best Regards,

There is no need to swap JPA/Hibernate provider in Seam - you have already made a right choice. What's great about Seam is that you can data grid-enable your Seam-based application just by changing a couple of configuration files.
Cacheonix integrates with Hibernate by supplying a second-level cache provider for Hibernate. All is needed to add data grid to your application is to set Hibernate's cache provider to cacheonix.plugin.hibernate.v32.CacheonixCache.
You can find more information here: http://wiki.cacheonix.com/display/CCHNX20/Integrating+With+Hibernate
