Do we need terracotta on top of ehcache for clustering?

I am doing to a proof of concept using ehcache as the cache provider.

Read somewhere saying we need terracotta server running, ALONG WITH ehcache to provide clustering.

Does ehcache alone provide clustering service or we need terracotta also?

Thanks, Venkat

Solution

  • If you don't require clustering, but replication would suffice, ehcache comes with RMI replication bundled and has jgroups as well as JMS replication available:
