+APACHE TOMCAT JK3 CONNECTOR
ROADMAP -*-text-*-
+
+ApacheCon EU 2007 DISCUSSION POINTS:
+
+ * Lets make next generation connector and software load balancer
+ for application servers.
+ * Lets put JK 1.2 in maintenance mode
+ - Stop adding things to the JK 1.2 and only fix bugs
+ - We'll still need to vote how to maintain this
+ * It should be APR based and supported platforms should be
+ - Apache Httpd 2+
+ - Microsoft IIS 5+ (Windows 2000 and up)
+ - Generic API for standalone based programs
+ * Java code will be Java5 based
+ - Java5 is mandatory
+ - Both server and client reference implementation
+ will be developed
+ * Scripting support for the Load Balancer
+ - Load balancer will have some sort of scripting
+ to be able to make rule based load balancers
+ - We still have to decide if we need a full-blown
+ scripting support, or a simple rule engine will do
+ * Extended AJP 1.3 protocol
+ - Keep AJP 1.3 backward compatible
+ - CPING/CPONG will be mandatory when establishing
+ new connections.
+ - Add connection close notification.
+ Done by extending CPING/CPONG
+ - See how we can have 64K+ headers
+ Idea is to treat them as POST data if the
+ header doesn't fit inside header AJP packet
+ * Make JK3 protocol independent
+ - Although developed with protocol independence in mind
+ JK 1.2 is practically unusable for non AJP 1.3 protocols.
+ JK3 should allow custom protocols like http or fastcgi
+ * Add persistence to the dynamic configuration
+ - Have a way to merge the static configuration with
+ modified dynamic configuration via jkstatus
+ * Add management thread for each child
+ - APR_HAS_THREADS presence will be mandatory
+ - For each child process in web server a management thread
+ will be created that will monitor state and dynamic
+ configuration.
