Embedded Server Mode #22

Closed zachkinstner closed 11 years ago

zachkinstner commented 11 years ago

Titan offers an embedded mode, where Titan starts up Rexster and Cassandra within the same JVM. Could RexConnect also do this, as a very "top" TCP communications layer?

I'm not sure exactly how this would work. RexConnect Server currently runs in its own JVM, and creates a RexsterClient to communicate with Titan/Rexster via the RexPro interface. Could RexConnect create a RexsterTitanServer instead?

If I understand correctly, that this would put RexConnect, Titan, Rexster, and Cassandra all in the same JVM. RexConnect's responsibility would be to pass queries/sessions (sent via TCP) directly to RexsterTitanServer, and return the results. This would cut out the RexsterClient/RexPro layer, and provide performance benefits (I assume) by running in the same JVM.

This will need further investigation. It could be a very powerful feature.

The RexConnect Rexster extension puts them all in the same JVM.
