in thread what do you use for job queuing?
I have limited time for this talk (about 40 minutes) and this isn't my only subject, so I can't go into a really lengthy discussion about it. However, if I do end up writing one, I will probably try to lean on a networked database for locking and general concurrency issues. I was trying to think of ways to avoid the incessant polling that could happen with a central-server approach like that (every worker process checking for new jobs, etc.). Let me know if you have any ideas about that. It may not really be worth worrying about, since these would be pretty simple queries, but I remember how much the Oracle DBAs at one place where I used to work complained about ATG Dynamo's RDBMS-based implementation of JMS. It would hit the database constantly.
