gluster-kubernetes is a project to provide Kubernetes administrators a mechanism to easily deploy a hyper-converged GlusterFS cluster along with heketi onto an existing Kubernetes cluster. This is a convenient way to unlock the power of dynamically provisioned, persistent GlusterFS volumes in Kubernetes.

acbuild is a command line utility to build and modify container images.

It is intended to provide an image build workflow independent of specific formats; currently, it can output the following types of container images:

  • ACI, the container image format defined in the App Container (appc) spec.
  • OCI, the format defined in the Open Containers Image Format specification

The Self-contained System (SCS) approach is an architecture that focuses on a separation of the functionality into many independent systems, making the complete logical system a collaboration of many smaller software systems. This avoids the problem of large monoliths that grow constantly and eventually become unmaintainable. Over the past few years, we have seen its benefits in many mid-sized and large-scale projects.

The idea is to break a large system apart into several smaller self-contained systems, or SCSs, that follow certain rules.

kdtree is a simple, easy to use C library for working with kd-trees.

Kd-trees are an extension of binary search trees to k-dimensional data. They facilitate very fast searching, and nearest-neighbor queries.

This particular implementation is designed to be efficient and very easy to use. It is completely written in ANSI/ISO C, and thus completely cross-platform.

CΞ»aSH (pronounced β€˜clash’) is a functional hardware description language that borrows both its syntax and semantics from the functional programming language Haskell. It provides a familiar structural design approach to both combinational and synchronous sequential circuits. The CΞ»aSH compiler transforms these high-level descriptions to low-level synthesizable VHDL, Verilog, or SystemVerilog.

Weyl is an extensible algebraic manipulation substrate that has been designed to represent all types of algebraic objects. It deals not only with the basic symbolic objects like polynomials, algebraic functions and differential forms, but can also deal with higher level objects like groups, rings, ideals and vector spaces. Furthermore, to encourage the use of symbolic techniques within other applications, Weyl is implemented as an extension of Common Lisp using the Common Lisp Object Standard so that all of Common Lisp’s facilities and development tools can be used in concert with Weyl’s symbolic tools.

[H]ere are a few notes on how to configure operating systems and write code to support thousands of clients. The discussion centers around Unix-like operating systems, as that’s my personal area of interest, but Windows is also covered a bit.
