jclouds is an api for concurrent access to cloud services such as Amazon Web Services. Initially we support Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3). In the future, we will support other amazon web services, as well other service providers.

" The primary purpose of the JcrCollectionAdapter class is to equip a stand-alone Atom server with a JCR repository for storage. However, with a bit of tweaking the class can also be used to provide an Atom interface to an existing CRX repository: a simple way to get things running is to leave the existing CRX Quickstart untouched and connect to the repository through RMI. RMI is disabled by default, but on CRX's Knowledge Base is an article how to enable it. "

"AtomServer is a generic data store implemented as a RESTful web service. It is designed as a GData-style Atom Store. It is based on the following concepts and protocols; REST. REST is a design pattern. It's not a technology like SOAP or HTTP. REST is a proven design pattern for building loosely-coupled, highly-scalable applications. There are important benefits to sticking to the REST design pattern; Simple. REST is incredibly simple to define. There are just a handful of principles and well defined semantics associated with it. Scalable. REST leads to a very scalable solution by promoting a stateless protocol and allowing state to be distributed across the web. Layered. REST allows any number of intermediaries, such as proxies, gateways, and firewalls. Ultimately REST is just a web site, albeit one that adheres to a design pattern, so one can easily layer aspects such as Security, Compression, etc. on an as needed basis. Atom. Fundamentally, Atom is an XML vocabulary for describing lists of timestamped entries. These entries can be anything, although because Atom was originally conceived to replace RSS, Atom lists are Feeds, and the items in the lists are Entries. Atom is a RESTful protocol. AtomServer stands on the shoulders of giants. It is built on top of several open source projects - most notably, Apache Abdera (a Java-based Atom Publishing framework) and Spring. AtomServer is an Atom Store. Thus, it requires a relational database to run. AtomServer currently supports; PostgresSQL, SQLServer, and HSQLDB. Using HSQLDB, AtomServer requires zero configuration and can run out-of-the-box. While this configuration is suitable for many applications, those that see significant load will likely require a database with better transactional semantics, such as PostgreSQL. AtomServer is easy to use. It deploys as a simple WAR file into any Servlet container. Or alternately, can be used out-of-the-box as a standalone server, running with

The release 3.0 of Spring Framework added the Spring Module OXM which supports the marshalling and unmarshalling of Java objects and XML documents.In this post, we will be using Spring OXM to take a Java object, convert it to a XML-format and save it in the hard-disk as an XML file containing information of that Java object. We will also cover how to retrieve back the serialized state of that XML file and reconstruct it back to it's original state as a Java object.

Scalaris is a scalable, transactional, distributed key-value store. It can be used for building scalable Web 2.0 services.
