• Reviewing 'Build Your Own EC2' OSS - Cloudstack 3.0

    Updated: 2012-02-29 17:44:20
    CloudStack is an open source cloud orchestration platform that essentially allows service providers to set up on-demand, elastic cloud computing services that function like Amazon EC2.  If you've heard of Rackspace's OpenStack, you could consider CloudStack a direct competitor.   And just for some background, CloudStack is a Citrix initiative that was born out of their acquisition of...

  • Design Patterns Were Not Born Equal

    Updated: 2012-02-29 09:00:00
    Design patterns were not born equal. Some of them are boring, while others are special. Do you remember your feelings after learning what the Data Transfer Object is? Don’t remember? Of course – cause you didn’t have any special feelings about it other than “It’s easy”. What do you say about Singleton? Yeah, this is [...]read more

  • Use views, not windows in Vaadin

    Updated: 2012-02-29 07:08:11
    In Vaadin 6, the Window class is used for both main windows - i.e. windows that fill the entire screen, and popup windows aka subwindows. This has lead some developers (including me) to think main windows could be set and then removed later on: this is not the case and may lead to nasty bugs when the page is refreshed by the user just after having switched main windows. Note: Vaadin 7...

  • Fault Injection into Unit Tests with JBoss Byteman

    Updated: 2012-02-29 05:12:00
    How do you test error handling in your application? Do you? Is it at all possible to simulate SocketTimeoutException, SQLException? Normally the answer would be that it isn’t possible or very difficult, requiring a complicated setup. Not anymore – with JBoss Byteman you can easily inject whatever code – e.g. throw new SocketTimeoutException() – in any place – e.g. Socket.connect....

  • Java Reflection in Action: Still Relevant After Eight Years

    The book Java Reflection in Action was published in 2004, but remains largely applicable eight years later. In this post, I review this book and cover its strengths and its weaknesses.

    Updated: 2012-02-29 05:00:00
    Have you ever tried to integrate BizTalk with non-Windows-based systems so you could use SSH with it?  Its tough, and since many cloud IaaS services are based on Linux (the cheaper ones are) it's one of those architectural conundrums we commonly find ourselves in as developers and architects.

  • Graal, a Dynamic Java Compiler in the Works

    Updated: 2012-02-15 00:24:45
    Graal is a new project to explore implementing a dynamic compiler in Java that can be used in a native JVM as well as meta-circular VM. Graal compiler is a dynamic compiler in Java and it allows to extend its functionality to support the customizations. The Graal compiler allows Java libraries to extend their functionality to support customizations. For example, it enables custom optimization phases that we cannot achieve with the traditional Java compilers. It provides a Java API to control the compiler phases and it even allows us to introduce new phases, thus it opens the door for efficient implementations of new languages.read more
