Preface

Chapter 8. Staging, Scheduling, Publishing, and Cache Clustering

Websites or WAP sites often need the capability to assemble, review, and approve new versions before going into production. Scheduling is the process of deciding how to commit resources between various possible tasks. Ehcache can scale from an in-process cache on one or more nodes through to a mixed in-process capable of terabyte-sized caches. Hibernate offers both a first-level cache and a second-level cache. In general, the portal provides the capabilities for staging, scheduling, publishing locally or remotely, caching, and clustering.

This chapter will first introduce the pattern Portal-Group-Page-Content. Then we will introduce LAR export and import mechanisms. Based on this, we will address the local staging and publishing processes. Then, we will discuss remote staging and publishing, either by scheduling or non-scheduling event. Finally, we will address caching and clustering mechanisms.
