Should a hardware load balancer be used to load balance JMS in JBoss EAP 6?
We have Java processes on multiple 'client' servers that connect to Jboss through port 4447...These connections are to write to a JMS queue and read/write Topics.
We have JMS clustering on the Jboss servers...We wanted to load balance so that the initial connection is balanced...
