Terracotta Previews Clustered Spring Framework at JavaOne; Capacity Crowd of 500+ Focuses on Jonas Boner's JavaOne Technical Session on Spring Runtime Solutions
SAN FRANCISCO --(Business Wire)-- May 18, 2006 -- At JavaOne this week, Terracotta, Inc., a leader in delivering groundbreaking solutions for enterprise Java scalability, previewed its drop-in clustering solution for the Interface21 Spring Framework.
By clustering the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) under the Spring Framework, Terracotta for Spring will greatly simplify the scalability of Spring applications by helping avoid the database as much as possible. This will vastly simplify performance tuning for Spring users.
Jonas Boner, senior engineer at Terracotta and creator of AspectWerkz AOP framework, spoke to a full house of over 500 JavaOne attendees at his technical session on transparently clustering the Spring framework. Developers eagerly listened as Jonas described a simple solution for how to maintain customer service level agreements (SLAs) when clustering without the need to change the application code.
"Spring is about making Java enterprise application development easier to use, and it succeeds brilliantly at that task," said Ari Zilka, founder and CEO of Terracotta. "But getting Spring to run on multiple machines requires a database. Terracotta for Spring extends Spring's simplicity with a drop-in solution that delivers all the advantages of clustering the JVM."
The Spring framework is the number one choice for simplifying Java development with Spring Beans. However, Spring users can spend weeks or months writing clustering code by hand to make Spring applications in production scale efficiently.
With Terracotta for Spring:
-- Developers will create Spring applications as usual with less reliance on an O/R mapper (i.e., Hibernate).
-- Terracotta for Spring can then be downloaded and installed from the Terracotta website.
-- Developers will simply define which Spring beans they want to have clustered in the Terracotta configuration file.
-- Spring applications will then be clustered automatically and transparently, having the same semantics across the cluster as on the single node.
Bottom-line, Terracotta for Spring will generate significant time and cost benefits for organizations working with the Spring framework, while providing linear scalability and total fault tolerance.
