Hi,

We are using Hibernate 3.1.2 with JBoss 4.0.3SP1. We deploy many similar applications within the same container, using jboss-app.xml like:

<jboss-app>
<loader-repository>dev:loader=e-Photoshop_dev.ear</loader-repository>
</jboss-app>

Now we are trying to optimize the performance with the use of caching. So far so good with EHCache. The only thing is, that each cache is per app.

Is there a way to use a "global" shared betweeen apps cache? It would greatly improve the usage of the memory.

Thanks,
Bartek

If you use a single SessionFactory MBean, you will have a single cache, and the SessionFactory will be accessible for all apps through JNDI.
