Oracle is INSANE

In general, I have respect for all engineers as the discipline is largely creative / artistic and there are myriad ways to solve one problem. And, I mean no disrespect to Venkat (the author); he was, after all, solving the problem with the tools he had readily available (and free).
But you should read this article referenced from TheServerSide today.
The suggested approach looks like at least 1 week's worth of coding, testing, and stabilization. Let's not even get into performance tuning. To share objects across JVMs, Oracle advocates JMS. This is absolutely an anti-pattern.
With open sourced Terracotta, this takes no extra code than the POJO you wanted to share in the first place. Do people actually build applications the way that article suggests? If yes, now is a good time to consider no longer doing so.
