Atomikos Forum

Hi

We have a Grails application (Spring+Hibernate) running on one Geronimo Application Server, and one EJB 3.0 running on another Geronimo App Server.

Geronimo is a good full JEE app server, but has not implemented distributed transactions (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-4088).

We want to integrate Spring initiated transaction with the EJB, and we think that is posssible with Atomikos ExtremeTransactions with support for the RMI / IIOP protocol.

We have many problems when creating the EJB Atomikos (NullPointer, etc ...) at the time of export the UserTransaction.

Someone has integrated Atomikos and EJB?

Our product supports RMI and transactions across JVMs but not (yet) with EJB containers.

I doubt anybody has done this before; if you're interested then we might be able to offer some commercial services for this.

That being said, the approach we recommend for distributed transactions like these is our TCC model. We have a very big thing coming out soon, with REST support. It does require that your application be designed accordingly, though...
