Hi all,
As was discussed on the list a few months back Boundless would like to contribute a clustering module (similar in nature to the recent jms-cluster from GeoSolutions) based on the Hazelcast library. For now the two modules are distinct and don’t share any code, it remains to be seen how the two might evolve together. It is worth noting that this module works best when using it in conjunction with jdbcconfig.
Here is a pull request that adds a new community module:
https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/pull/865/
Of note is that I have maintained the history of the module as I believe there is some pretty important stuff in there that may prove good for context while making changes in the future. However if folks prefer I can collapse it down to a single commit.
