Java is becoming an attractive and easy to use programming language. It provides two systems for distributed computing, RMI and sockets, which describe a synchronous communication over TCP/IP. These Java core features may not be the best choice for cluster computing environments, since they do not provide high performance, a critical factor in this scenario. In this paper it is presented the development of Aldeia System, a library proposal to provide asynchronous communication in Java for cluster programming. Aldeia has been deployed on SAN hardware through Infiniband and DECK high-speed substrates. This paper shows the rationale for Aldeia?s creation, its structure and encouraging results in synchronous and asynchronous approaches.
