Hello ,


We have one db server and several application servers.
We would like to deploy hibernate on each of the app servers.
Would it be possible to synchornize them with each other ?
Either through the database or directly with one another.

Best regards

Ishai

ٌwhat do you mean by synchronizing them?


Farzad-

if an object value (and a record value in the db) changes , that all the hibernate instances will be updated with the new value.
maybe its trivial , but were still in the theortical testing of hibernate and havnt acctually installed it :)

hibernate's memory from database has a short life span and it is usually within scope of a transaction and with an appropriate isolation level you will eliminate most of sync problems. However, if you use a L2 cache the story is different since hibernate keeps a copy of database values. In a multi node environment however you can sync caches. This however works if all updates are being made with hibernate and no other layer.




Farzad-

You may go ahead and read the section that talk about hibernate caching. However, the distributed cache solution is not a hibernate concerns and you will have to read a cache implementation's document. For example, ehcache is a very good one.
