"If you didn't know already, Eclipse allows you to define custom templates for commonly used code snippets. Its a very neat feature for those of us who are memory challenged or don't like typing things twice! I think that Apache Camel users could really benefit from having predefined templates for doing Camel routing. I also hear a lot of requests like "I have this Java DSL route, how do I do this in the Spring XML DSL?" so having both Java and XML templates for the same thing is essential."

The CDO (Connected Data Objects) Model Repository is a distributed shared model framework for EMF models and meta models. CDO is also a model runtime environment with a focus on orthogonal aspects like model scalability, transactionality, persistence, distribution, queries and more. CDO has a 3-tier architecture supporting EMF-based client applications, featuring a central model repository server and leveraging different types of pluggable data storage back-ends like relational databases, object databases and file systems. The default client/server communication protocol is implemented with the Net4j Signalling Platform.

"Hibernate OGM is an attempt to store data in a NoSQL data grid using he Hibernate Core engine rather than rewriting a JPA engine from scratch. The benefits are fairly obvious: reimplementing the complex JPA specification is a lot of work a new implementation would mature at a rather slow rate and risk of bugs would be high Hibernate is familiar to many people Earlier designs for this feature in Infinispan can be found on http://community.jboss.org/wiki/DesignofJPA-likeAPIandNewFineGrainedreplication"

This page contains the latest compiled builds of Pentaho Data Integration (Kettle) community edition.  The builds are based on source code downloaded daily from SVN. Why download these snapshot builds? You want the latest version - to get the latest features in PDI. You want a more stable version - PDI point releases (e.g. 4.0.1) can include important bug fixes - see the PDI JIRA system for a full list of known issues. You need a bug fixed - You're struggling with a critical bug which has been fixed in a more recent version. To save time - You haven't got the time and/or inclination to learn about how to download PDI from SVN and build your own version.

JDBC realm has a lot of attention in recent months. This blog summarizes the evolution of the JDBC realm implementation in GlassFish and explains how the latest implementation works. I would like to thank Jean-Baptiste, and Richter for their contributions and comments. The participation from the open source community definitely helps everyone. I encourage all of you to give feedback, participate, and help evolve this feature further. GlassFish always had the capability for anyone to plug-in a realm. Implementing a custom realm in the Sun Java System Application Server EE 8.0 is described in the article Authentication Using Custom Realms in Sun Java System Application Server. In S1AS 7.x, there is a JDBC Realm bundled in sample. Jean-Baptiste formally filed an enhancement and provided a clear text version of JDBCRealm for GlassFish. Richter wrote another implementation because the GlassFish JDBCRealm at that time not compatible with Tomcat.

Apache Shiro (pronounced "shee-roh", the Japanese word for 'castle') is a powerful and easy-to-use Java security framework that performs authentication, authorization, cryptography, and session management and can be used to secure any application - from the command line applications, mobile applications to the largest web and enterprise applications. Shiro provides the application security API to perform the following aspects (I like to call these the 4 cornerstones of application security): Authentication - proving user identity, often called user 'login'. Authorization - access control Cryptography - protecting or hiding data from prying eyes Session Management - per-user time-sensitive state Shiro also supports some auxiliary features, such as web application security, unit testing, and multithreading support, but these exist to reinforce the above four primary concerns.

"Quercus is Caucho Technology's 100% Java implementation of PHP 5 released under the Open Source GPL license. Quercus comes with many PHP modules and extensions like PDF, PDO, MySQL, and JSON. Quercus allows for tight integration of Java services with PHP scripts, so using PHP with JMS or Grails is a quick and painless endeavor. With Quercus, PHP applications automatically take advantage of Java application server features just as connection pooling and clustered sessions. Quercus implements PHP 5 and a growing list of PHP extensions including APC, iconv, GD, gettext, JSON, MySQL, Oracle, PDF, and Postgres. Many popular PHP application will run as well as, if not better, than the standard PHP interpreter straight out of the box. The growing list of PHP software certified running on Quercus includes DokuWiki, Drupal, Gallery2, Joomla, Mambo, Mantis, MediaWiki, Phorum, phpBB, phpMyAdmin, PHP-Nuke, Wordpress and XOOPS. Quercus presents a new mixed Java/PHP approach to web applications and services where Java and PHP tightly integrate with each other. PHP applications can choose to use Java libraries and technologies like JMS, EJB, SOA frameworks, Hibernate, and Spring. This revolutionary capability is made possible because 1) PHP code is interpreted/compiled into Java and 2) Quercus and its libraries are written entirely in Java. This architecture allows PHP applications and Java libraries to talk directly with one another at the program level. To facilitate this new Java/PHP architecture, Quercus provides and API and interface to expose Java libraries to PHP. The Quercus .war file can be run on Java application servers such as Glassfish, i.e. it can be run outside of Resin. This .war file includes the Quercus interpreter and the PHP libraries."

"SwitchYard is a lightweight service delivery framework providing full lifecycle support for developing, deploying, and managing service-oriented applications. Wait, what? You mean like an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB)? Yeah, kind of. At it's core, SwitchYard provides an embeddable services runtime with limited dependencies, allowing you to deploy and run services where you need them: inside unit tests, embedded in your own applications, as modules in an OSGi framework, or within an application server. Of course, there will be modular components on top of core to provide connectivity, transformation, routing and orchestration, and all the other features that are typically associated with an ESB. The main difference between SwitchYard and traditional ESB offerings is that we are trying to make the runtime a transparent detail in the service lifecycle. SwitchYard aims to keep you focused on your services by providing tooling to help define, test, and manage the important details of a service - it's contract, policies, configuration, composition, and management . After all, the least important detail of your service is where it runs."
