Hi all,
  I'm trying to deepen the technical issue that would allow me to use 
TERRACOTTA, specifically open source technology with the DSO, for our 
website, an internet startup that is going to produce the first working 
prototype of a specific service (images and stuffs). We use only Java, 
we do not use other technologies.

In effect we are interested to this:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terracotta_Cluster

Terracotta is an open source JVM-level clustering software for Java.
It delivers clustering as a runtime infrastructure service, which
simplifies the task of clustering a Java application, by clustering
the JVM underneath the application, instead of clustering the
application itself [1].

Terracotta's JVM-level clustering can turn single-node,
multi-threaded applications into distributed, multi-node
applications, often with no code changes. Terracotta uses standard
bytecode manipulation techniques to plug into the Java Memory Model
in order to maintain semantics of Java (Java Language Specification),
such as pass-by-reference, thread coordination, and garbage
collection across the cluster.

In particular, we use Tomcat, but we do not need "web sessions" or 
"ebcache" itselfs, for who knows what i'm talking about.

We need a cluster of different machines that do run a JVM that uses all 
the power and willingness to scale, with the addition of new nodes, 
trasparently to eh application itself, may it will be tomcat or another 
normal java.packages that we are developing.

Someone are using TERRACOTA, in this exact method?

Thanks for information, and any help.
