Summary
This chapter was all about the world of clustered applications. Here, we have shown
the robust clustering features of JBoss AS and have applied them to some of the ex-
amples discussed in this topic.
The number of topics related to clustering might be expanded to cover a full book of
its own; however, we decided to stress only on some features. In particular, we have
learned how to cluster EJBs and how to achieve fault tolerance in case there is a
change in the server topology.
Next, we discussed about clustering web applications and the integration with load
balancing solutions such as the Apache web server and
mod_cluster
.
In the next chapter, we will add the last piece of the puzzle that's missing in our En-
terprise applications: handling security in your applications.
