Are there any well documented use cases of Apache ZooKeeper being used to distribute configuration of Java applications, and in particular Spring services?
Like many use
I was at an Apache Camel talk from James Strachen last week and he mentioned using ZooKeeper under the covers for their Java-based server in the cloud as the source of configuration info.
I've seen a talk from Adrian Colyer (CTO of SpringSource) about runtime config change in Spring, but does Spring support this today?
In my opinion, if you're starting from a typically architected Spring application, I don't see you having an easy job retrofitting dynamic config changes on top of it.
