JGroups is a Java toolkit for reliable group communication and messaging between cluster nodes. It provides configurable protocol stacks covering transport, reliability, ordering, failure detection, encryption, and membership management.
Use cases
- build a clustered Java application with reliable messaging
- send messages between nodes in a LAN or WAN cluster
- detect crashed nodes and get notified of membership changes
- implement reliable multicast without writing protocol code
- create a distributed cache or replicated state across nodes
- cluster task distribution across JVMs
When to choose
- you need reliable point-to-point or point-to-multipoint messaging in Java
- you want a pluggable protocol stack you can tune per deployment
- you need group membership and failure detection out of the box
When to avoid
- you need messaging across non-JVM languages or brokers
- you want a standalone message broker rather than an embedded library
- your app is single-node and doesn't need clustering
