Baratine News


 
Baratine 0.10 Released 

Asynchronous reactive applications (See http://reactivemanifesto.com) are the future of web applications. However, the large base of developers building asynchronous distributed applications has not yet come to fruition. We believe that this is due to the sheer complexity needed to build and maintain these solutions. Toolkits and frameworks currently require very low level message handling and force developers into a programming model that is not natural to the object oriented style of Java.
 
Baratine is a platform for building a network of loosely-couple POJO microservices. In this way, Baratine can be thought of as a “high-level” abstraction for reactive programming. Within Baratine, the only requirement of developers is to implement the methods from the API they design. This is in stark contrast to models that enforce an “extends” statement in base level classes and opens up the understanding of an application from just a few expert engineers, to an entire team of engineers now able to create enterprise quality distributed applications.
 
Baratine is moving Java forward with the next stage of encapsulation. Currently we are updating our documentation to illustrate how many models can be implemented within Baratine. The list currently stands at: 

  1. Hello world
  2. Batching
  3. In-memory
  4. Sharded
  5. Id generation
  6. Multi-pod
  7. Pub-sub
  8. Workers/integration with legacy
  9. Map-reduce
  10. Store
  11. BFS
  12. Database bardb
  13. Mysql/mongodb
  14. Child services
  15. Compute
  16. Facade APIs
  17. Vertx integration

If you have any questions about Baratine and current use cases please reach out to us at: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/baratine-io or drop us a line at sales@caucho.com (Don’t worry Baratine is Open Source and free to use!)
 

Resin News


Resin 4.0.45 on caucho.com/download

Along with working on the technology to fuel the next generation of web apps, we continue to improve our long-standing cloud platform in Resin. The lastest version of Resin, 4.0.45, is now available for download. It includes bug fixes and increases Resin's stronghold as the top tier web and application server. Please report any bugs you come acoress to bugs.caucho.com. If you’re looking to expedite a bug fix, a short demo reproducting the issue always helps us out.

One other item to note is that we will be back porting the new Resin 5 database into Resin 4. Our new model will provide even better stability when corruptions occur and should be out in 2-3 weeks.

  • session: change shutdown state machine to allow getAttribute on invalidating session (#5919, rep by Shinomiya Nobuaki)\
  • build: remove LoadTimeWeaver (#5923, rep by M. Barker)
  • watchdog: change default -Xss to 1m (#5927, rep by anupmondal)

  • jsp: share classloading of .tag files (#5914, rep by nfedorov)
  • dyn-server: on server restart, allow same address:port (#5903, rep by Tom Pohl)
  • dyn-server: added lock in resin-data to ensure multiple servers cannot use same data (#5902, rep by Tom Pohl)
  • ssl: allow OpenSSL ECC support for forward secrecy (#5906, rep by Nick Stephens)
  • db: add validation and restart for corrupted BTree index (#5912, rep by wesleywu)
  • build: allow for JDK 8 build (#5901, rep by dave)
  • health: removed perm gen checks (#5910)
