Carbon Resources

The Institute of Architecture of Application Systems (IAAS), based in Stuttgart, Germany, is one of Europe’s largest service-oriented architecture (SOA) and business process management (BPM) research institutes. In his presentation at WSO2Con 2011, Mr. Schumm described the institute’s research into optimizing BPM through the use of process views, as well as the Business Process Illustrator (BPI) tool that IAAS has developed to enable process instance monitoring. He also explained how implementing the WSO2 Carbon platform and WSO2 Business Process Server (BPS) helped IAAS to facilitate its research. Here are highlights from his talk.

This post discusses how to set multiple instances of WSO2 Carbon in a multiple-IP machine, binding to the same ports, with different IP addresses. Multiple instances of WSO2 Carbon can be configured to run on a single machine, to fit the requirements. The configuration often involves changing the ports of the instances, such that there won't be any conflict in the ports used. However, given a multiple-IP machine, multiple Carbon instances can be bound to the same ports, with the different instances listening over the available IPs.
