< h1 > JMS Client-Side Load-Balancing Example< / h1 >
< p > This example demonstrates how connnections created from a single JMS Connection factory can be created
2014-11-19 03:44:57 -05:00
to different nodes of the cluster. In other words it demonstrates how ActiveMQ does < b > client side load balancing< / b > of
2014-10-31 06:20:28 -04:00
connections across the cluster.< / p >
< p > The particular load-balancing policy can be chosen to be random, round-robin or user-defined. Please see the user
guide for more details of how to configure the specific load-balancing policy. In this example we will use
the default round-robin load balancing policy.< / p >
2014-11-19 03:44:57 -05:00
< p > The list of servers over which ActiveMQ will round-robin the connections can either be specified explicitly
2014-10-31 06:20:28 -04:00
in the connection factory when instantiating it directly, when configuring it on the server or configured
to use UDP discovery to discover the list of servers over which to round-robin. This example will use UDP
discovery to obtain the list.< / p >
< p > This example starts three servers which all broadcast their location using UDP discovery. The UDP broadcast configuration
2015-04-29 05:30:31 -04:00
can be seen in the < code > broker.xml< / code > file.< / p >
2014-10-31 06:20:28 -04:00
< p > A JMS ConnectionFactory is deployed on each server specifying the discovery group that will be used by that
connection factory.< / p >
