Clustering is an advanced course focusing on the high availability services of the JBoss Enterprise Middleware System (JEMS), including JGroups, JBoss Cache, load balancing, and more.
Course Description
Clustering is a 4-day training focusing on the high availability services of JBoss Enterprise Middleware products (such as JBoss Enterprise Application Platform). You will learn how JBoss Application Server leverages JGroups and JBoss Cache for replication and fail-over, how to configure, tune and implement JGroups protocol stacks, how to leverage JBoss Cache in your own middleware applications and how to use and configure mod_jk for HTTP load balancing. We will also cover in some detail JBoss Application Server high availability services such as HA-JNDI and HA-singleton.
