Coordinated Restore at Checkpoint
1.4

This feature enables the org.crac Coordinated Restore at Checkpoint APIs.

These APIs integrate with the Liberty InstantOn support.

The org.crac package provides APIs for receiving checkpoint/restore notifications. These notifications enable applications to perform actions before they checkpoint an application process and after they restore the application process. For example, this package allows Spring-based applications to support checkpoint and restore. The use of org.crac is not limited to Spring-based applications. Any application that runs on Liberty can choose to receive checkpoint/restore notifications by enabling this feature.
