Edge-server architectures are widely used to improve web-application performance for non-transactional data. However, their use with transactional data is complicated by the need to maintain a common database that is shared among different edge-servers. In this paper we examine the performance characteristics of alternative edge-server architectures for transactional Enterprise JavaBeans (EJBs) applications. In one architecture, a remote database is shared among a number of edge-servers; in another, edge-servers maintain cached copies of transactionally-consistent EJBs. Importantly, the caching function is transparent to applications that use it.
