For the past few weeks, a lot of my time has been spent on documentation work, and a fair bit of new stuff is now available. So, without further ado:
JBoss Application Server 5.1 Clustering Guide
The AS 5.1 Clustering Guide is complete and is available at jboss.org. What you need to know to develop, deploy and run clustered applications on JBoss Application Server 5.1. The content in the guide is also correct for AS 5.0.0 and 5.0.1.
Many thanks to Paul Ferraro and Galder Zamarreno for their many contributions to the clustering guide.
Using JBoss Cache as a Hibernate Second Level Cache reference manual
The definitive guide on how to use Hibernate’s Second Level Cache feature in a clustered environment. Describes in detail how to use JBoss Cache as your second level cache provider.
There are currently two versions of this document:
- Hibernate 3.5 — Covers the integration of JBoss Cache 3 with the upcoming version of Hibernate.
- Hibernate 3.3 — Covers the integration of JBoss Cache 2 or 3 with Hibernate 3.3. The Hibernate 3.3 / JBoss Cache 3 combination is what is used in JBoss AS 5.x and JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 5.
Enjoy! And as always, comments, suggestions and edits are most definitely appreciated.
