DRBL (Diskless Remote Boot in Linux) is a solution to managing the deployment of the GNU/Linux operating system across many clients. Imagine the time required to install GNU/Linux on 40, 30, or even 10 client machines individually! DRBL allows for the configuration all of your client computers by installing just one server machine. DRBL provides a diskless or systemless environment for client machines. It works on Debian, Ubuntu, Mandriva, Red Hat, Fedora, CentOS and SuSE. DRBL uses distributed hardware resources and makes it possible for clients to fully access local hardware.

"Consul has multiple components, but as a whole, it is a tool for discovering and configuring services in your infrastructure. It provides several key features: Service Discovery: Clients of Consul can provide a service, such as api or mysql, and other clients can use Consul to discover providers of a given service. Using either DNS or HTTP, applications can easily find the services they depend upon. Health Checking: Consul clients can provide any number of health checks, either associated with a given service ("is the webserver returning 200 OK"), or with the local node ("is memory utilization below 90%"). This information can be used by an operator to monitor cluster health, and it is used by the service discovery components to route traffic away from unhealthy hosts. Key/Value Store: Applications can make use of Consul's hierarchical key/value store for any number of purposes including: dynamic configuration, feature flagging, coordination, leader election, etc. The simple HTTP API makes it easy to use. Multi Datacenter: Consul supports multiple datacenters out of the box. This means users of Consul do not have to worry about building additional layers of abstraction to grow to multiple regions. Consul is designed to be friendly to both the DevOps community and application developers, making it perfect for modern, elastic infrastructures."

"This is a second reminder about the upcoming deprecation for support of clients versioned 1.5 earlier in Docker Hub. Pushes for these clients to Docker Hub will be disabled next Thursday, November 19."

"At SoundCloud, we structure our product as an API with many clients. That is, our main website, mobile client, and mobile apps are all first-order clients of a single main API. Behind that API is a universe of services: SoundCloud operates basically as a Service-Oriented-Architecture. We're also a polyglot organization, which means we use lots of languages."

"Flare is a service that listen to changes on HTTP endpoints and notify subscripted clients about the changes. It help reduce the pressure on APIs by avoiding the clients to do pooling requests to search for new/changed content and the need of the APIs to develop workers to notify the clients"

"Unlike most client libraries dealing with HAL REST APIs, Hybind provides a high-level approach similar to what Object Relational Mapping (ORM) frameworks are for databases. When using Spring Data REST in the server, it is amazing how the amount of code to write is reduced to a minimum. However, a significant amount of repeated boilerplate is still required in the JavaScript client to manipulate the resources and map them to the client-side model. That's why this library exists. It enriches plain JavaScript objects with a convenient API so that performing REST requests is as easy as calling methods directly on the model objects. It is optimized for Spring Data REST, but should work with other HAL APIs following similar conventions."

"HPaste unlocks the rich functionality of HBase for a Scala audience. In so doing, it attempts to achieve the following goals: Provide a strong, clear syntax for querying and filtration Perform as fast as possible while maintaining idiomatic Scala client code -- the abstractions should not show up in a profiler! Re-articulate HBase's data structures rather than force it into an ORM-style atmosphere. A rich set of base classes for writing MapReduce jobs in hadoop against HBase tables. Provide a maximum amount of code re-use between general Hbase client usage, and operation from within a MapReduce job. Use Scala's type system to its advantage--the compiler should verify the integrity of the schema. Be a verbose DSL--minimize boilerplate code, but be human readable!"

"Hyperclient is a Hypermedia API client written in Ruby. It fully supports JSON HAL."

La api mas copada que conozco para escribir clientes de HTTP... de verdad. Por ejemplo, consultar el servicio de info de Outbox para pedir el listado todos los archivos PDF, parsear el XML de respuesta, extraer del mismo los nombres de todos los archivos e imprimirlos puede ser tan solo así.

Para cosas que no necesitan de sincronicidad, como un agregador de eventos de logging o un registrador de estadísticas de ambiente de ejecución, esta librería cliente de HBase parece mucho mucho mejor que el cliente propio.

"What is the reason to quote at all? Consider it. It shouldn't be to allow people to scroll down to see all earlier discussions. If the news client is a bit smart, fetching the older articles from the server should be just as easy as to "scroll down". If a thread goes forth and back some times and earlier quotes accumulate, an article including all those quotes might get five-ten times larger than a posting without quotes, this wastes bandwidth and hard disk space. Therefore, IMHO, no quotes are far better than a posting at the top of all old quotes."

"This project aims at providing a Scala to JavaScript compiler, so that one can write the client-side of a Web application in Scala, and have it compiled into JavaScript code."

"Complete and usable DNS library. All widely used Resource Records are supported, including the DNSSEC types. It follows a lean and mean philosophy. If there is stuff you should know as a DNS programmer there isn't a convenience function for it. Server side and client side programming is supported, i.e. you can build servers and resolvers with it."

Neo4J REST client. Java Bindings for the Neo4J Server REST API, providing an implementation of GraphDatabaseService.

Neo4j REST client for JavaScript

"GraphQL is a query language for APIs and a runtime for fulfilling those queries with your existing data. GraphQL provides a complete and understandable description of the data in your API, gives clients the power to ask for exactly what they need and nothing more, makes it easier to evolve APIs over time, and enables powerful developer tools."

Data.js is a data representation framework for Javascript. It is being developed in the context of Substance, a web-based document authoring and publishing engine. It took some inspiration from various existing libraries such as the Google Visualization API or Underscore.js.  You can report bugs and discuss features on the GitHub issues page, on Freenode IRC in the #_substance chann el, post questions to the Google Group, or send tweets to @_substance. With Data.js you can: Model your domain data using a simple graph-based object model that can be serialized to JSON. Traverse your graph, including relationships using a simple API. Manipulate and query data on the client (browser) or on the server (Node.js) by using exactly the same API. 

Gemini Blueprint project makes it easy to build Java applications that run in an OSGi framework. By using Gemini Blueprint, applications benefit from using a better separation of modules, the ability to dynamically add, remove, and update modules in a running system, the ability to deploy multiple versions of a module simultaneously (and have clients automatically bind to the appropriate one), and a dynamic service model.
