title: Redis as Hibernate second level cache
body: <p>I have a crazy idea : use Redis as hibernate second cache level. Redis is an in-memory datastore, it supports replication, pipeline, etc.. The goal is to share the hibernate cache between many tomcat nodes. The basic implementation should be to serailize Hibernate cache object key and value  and store all into a Redis database.  What do you think about that idea ? </p>
