I do plan to use innovative technologies in order to provide the same kind of experience Jini developers experience to end-users of the store.
What it means is that the content of the store will react to the Jini topology.
For example should a […]
Obviously, opensourcing Jini under a ASLv2 license definitely was something people were interested in…
Many opensource projects are beginning to integrate with Jini technologies, such as Mule (a really powerful ESB) providing a JavaSpace connector, and a new project called Equinox working on a close integration between Jini, Rio and the Spring Framework.
The first one is explaining how Jini uses the classloaders [en] and is advanced stuff that you should have a look into (even if you’re only doing RMI or J2EE development).
The second one talks about clustering, and more precisely about dynamic clustering [en], that is a cluster whose members are subject to vary over time. This article […]
Yesterday has been a day full of Jini [en] news.
Version 2.1 of Jini has been released [en] under Apache License v2 [en]. It is now definitely easier to get start with Jini because of the new installer that is able to check the environment and start the basic services. So if you tried Jini before and gave up […]
The latest Jini Community newsletter [en] is of real good quality.
This newsletter presents a must-read paper on Jini leases [en] that explain them very well for beginners. There is also a link to a paper explaining how to build a compute grid with Jini technology [en].
I’m an avid reader of weblogs, and I just discovered today with this […]
I have just received last friday my new server, basically an Xserve G5 [en] with two 2.3Ghz processors and 2Gb of RAM. This configuration cost me around 6200 € which is quite expansive but if you consider you have about 1000 € of software, about 960 € of warranty for 3 years and 1030 € of […]
A new version of Blitz [en] is available. This new version includes the updated RIO configuration file [en] I wrote, and also fixes the issues I had with ServiceUI [en].
Inca X [en] has released version 3 [en] of their Jini [en] IDE.
This new version [en] introduces one noticeable feature that will make me reconsider using it: Ant [en] support (generating build files from the project and building the project within the IDE).
A new version [en] of RIO [en] has been released. A fresh FAQ [en] has also been published.
RIO [en] is bundled with some few services such as the ones in the Jini [en] reference implementation. But instead of using Outrigger (the JavaSpace implementation from the RI), I wanted to use Blitz [en].
Blitz [en] is in fact distributed with a sample configuration file for RIO [en], but unfortunately this configuration was not setting up ServiceUI [en] and not giving […]
A friend of mine (who is also an ex-coworker) referred me to a Jini [en] project called HACore [en]. HACore [en] seems to provide pretty much the same goals and kind of features of RIO [en]. Its documentation is really good, providing specifications [en], design considerations [en] and of course the API documentation [en].
The few drawbacks I can quickly find […]
A new article [en] about RIO [en] has been released. For those who may not know it, RIO [en] is a kind of Jini [en] service container providing really neat features. I’ll speak more about RIO [en] and Jini [en] in a few days…
