Evaluation of a Group Communication Middleware for Clustered J2EE Application Servers

Clusters have become the de facto platform to scale J2EE application servers. Each tier of the server uses group communication to maintain consistency between replicated nodes. JGroups is the most commonly used Java middleware for group communications in J2EE open source implementations. No evaluation has been done yet to evaluate the scalability of this middleware and its impact on application server scalability.
