Hello all :).
First of all excuse me of any silly questions I might make in this
list.As a devout supporter of Tomcat,and having made extensive use of
it (:D), I've taken notice lately of the Apache Tribes
framework.Lately,we had developed a P2P application with JXTA but
looking to better alternatives we've seen characteristics in Apache
Tribes that are very attractive & tempting(at least in the
descriptions presented in the web page).However,we would like some
"official" answer to see whether these features are what we should
expect.So,let me get straight to the point:
-Does Apache Tribes support message parallelism/multithreading?
-Is it scalable?Does it support a limited number of peers or it
depends on machinery hardware/equipment?
-What about feedback?
-In addition,could we retrieve statistics and information about the
topology of the network when nodes are built via the framework(even if
these "information" have to be segregated/collected by us;I am asking
if it is possible)?
Most of my questions seem answered in this page:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/tribes/introduction.html
However,many links are broken(Javadocs, setup guide shows blank
page)and I can't get much more information about it.In addition,I have
doubts if your community still actively supports it.Do you think I
should look elsewhere?
I do hope for positive answers, as the feature overview seems
fantastic to me(parallel delivery,message feedback).As far as
peer-nodes are concerned we've succeeded with ~400-500 peers alive
together(quite a modicum quantity for P2P networks).
