Recently Shine Technologies distributed one of its applications using Terracotta, an open-source JVM-level data clustering project. Terracotta is often used to implement HTTP session replication, as a distributed cache, for transparent POJO Clustering / Spring integration, but can also be used to distribute events (such as tasks in a master/worker grid pattern). In this case study, Shine Technologies explained how they used Terracotta and the Master Worker pattern to process large volumes of electricity usage data weekly and generate reports with detailed reconciliation & discrepancy highlighting for their customers.
