Thread: [Php-java-bridge-users] Performance of php-java bridge?

Hi,

for our current project we are looking around for what kind of
technologies we want to use for the website.
We ideally would like to have Java for the logic, but we are not too
thrilled by any of the java frameworks for the web front end.
PHP gives us exactly the kind of freedom we want for the front end,
but we would like to use it purely for displaying content, and do not
want to have any complex logic.
Hence, the PHP / Java bridge sounds like the perfect solution.

Now, our main concern is the performance of the php/java bridge; our
website will have many visitors (and logged in users), and we would
like to know that we do not get into performance problems further down
the road.

Has anyone used the bridge for a website with high traffic, and is
willing to share their experiences with it so far?

Has anyone performed tests to measure how the bridge performs when
under pressure?
Got any tips on how to perform such tests the best way (e.g.
suggestions for tools that can help us) ?

thanks much for any information you can provide us,

RJ

Well, the bridge simply forwards the Java calls to the J2EE back end.

If one back end cannot handle the load anymore, just add another one. Please see the "How do I set
up a J2EE cluster" from our FAQ for details.

i am not concerned about the java backend, i was just concerned if
there for some reason overhead (in terms of speed/memory) is because
of the java/php bridge, but it sounds like this is nothing we really
have to worry about then?

cheers,

RJ

the bridge simply forwards the Java statements as soon as it receives them.

Other technologies such as Soap or XML-RPC have a much higher overhead. -- mod_jk goes even
further and forwards the entire script to the back end.
