| Bridge client | |
| The Bridge client is integrated in the application that wishes to use the resources of the remote cluster. | |
| Bridge server | |
| The Bridge server is a single remote host that makes its resources available to Bridge clients through a proprietary network protocol over a single TCP/IP connection. | |
The Bridge is a feature of DiCE that allows simple and efficient use of the resources of a remote cluster with minimal integration effort. Data is transferred to the remote cluster in a way suitable for comparably low-bandwidth, high-latency connections such as an Internet connection, where normal DiCE clustering would not work.
The Bridge supports server-side caching of data and incremental changes to minimize the amount of data sent, as well as low-latency, hardware H.264 video to efficiently use the available bandwidth.
