Today I enabled the Subversion repository option for the "PNW SOA Commons" project that is hosted on sourceforge.net - you can browse the directory structure here. Nothing checked-in yet - I've begun working on the directory layout and will hopefully have something to check-in later this week.

TikiWiki CMS/Groupware 1.9.10.1 released - changelog

Hat'tip to Ted Neward for recently posting about indeed.com and their ability to graph Job Trends. Here's a graph of SOA job trends that I ran:

2008-02-23 Saturday

I installed the latest Hudson 1.184 release on Friday at a client site. We have been running a previous release (1.164) under Glassfish V2. It appears that 1.184 fails to deploy under Glassfish V2 - but I was able to get it running under Tomcat 6.0.x. Some of the recent Hudson development efforts include support for LDAP integration (1.166). There are some very cool improvements.


On Feb. 11th, the day the WS02 Registry 1.0 was released, I downloaded it and began evaluating it for a current client SOA project.

I recently have submitted two bugs to the WS02 Registry project:

REGISTRY-233: Basic Search is not working for words in the Description
Description
The Basic Search does not appear to find words that appear as part of a Description (for either a Resource or Collection).

The Basic Search does not appear to find words that are embedded as part of the name of a Resource or Collection

Developer's Comments
We are using tags as the main search mechanism in the registry. So the basic search only searches for tags. But it may also be useful to include description and the resource name in the search as you mentioned. We can discuss this in the mailing list and implement if necessary.

We are providing name based search in the advanced search. But we haven't implemented the description based search there yet. We will add it soon. Thanks for pointing this out.


and

REGISTRY-226: Deployment of wso2registry.war fails under Glassfish V2
Developer's Comments
I was able to recreate this issue with the Glassfish V2 - Sun Java System Application Server 9.1and Ubuntu 7.10,jdk1.5.0_08. Same NPE occurred in Linux environment as well.
(...)
As I can see the issue is due to pack and unpack of war. We tried to deploy axis2.war and same NPE occurs so I guess issues is not only in wso2regsitry.
(...)
We have found the issue , it is due to a compile error in

registry-resources-versions.jsp

So I we will fix that soon , thanks you very much for finding the issue and creating a jira

2008-02-21 Thursday

In response to a recent blog post by Loraine Lawson SOA Governance Tools Simplified , I provided the following post as a comment:

I have recently conducted some preliminary testing of some open source Registry/Repository type tools for a client - that could be helpful for organizations that are looking to experiment first before paying big bucks for some vendor solution.

Yelo
http://freshmeat.net/projects/yelo/
"Yelo is a standalone service catalog for SOA (service-oriented architecture). A service catalog is an important part of the business process of service-oriented architecture and seems to be available today only as part of a larger package. This application is meant to foster a "marketplace" approach to services within an enterprise. "

Opinion: Not bad for a simple catalog. Could be easily extended. Better than a spreadsheet being passed around. Does not appear to be an active project. .NET implementation.


WS02 Registry - 1.0
http://wso2.org/projects/registry
WSO2 Registry enables you to store, catalog, index and manage your enterprise meta data in a simple, scalable and easy-to-use model. It is designed around community concepts such as tags, comments, ratings, users and roles.

WSO2 Registry can be considered a structured Wiki designed to help manage meta-data in a simple and a business-friendly manner. In addition, the registry allows storage of unstructured data such as Word documents and Excel spreadsheets. Using this approach, you can build a catalog of enterprise information ranging from services to service descriptions.

WSO2 Registry can be deployed in application servers and accessed using the Web UI or the APP interface. It can also be embedded as a Java library within Java programs that can then be used as a resource store with all community features and versioning.

WSO2 Registry is released under the Apache License v2.0

Storing and managing resources and collections
Tagging, commenting and rating resources
Managing users and roles
Authentication and authorization on all resources
Resource/collection versioning
Tag based search
Advanced search
Activity log and filtering support
APP based Remote Registry
Media type handling support
Web based user interface with Web 2.0 look and feel

Opinion: Recently released (Feb. 11th 2008) - has a nice UI - but there are some bugs that the development team needs to resolve. Worth monitoring this one as it develops further.



freebXML Registry - Omar 3.1 (ebXML reference implementation)
http://ebxmlrr.sourceforge.net/
Packed with features, thick and thin clients supported, Java implementation.

Opinion: The UI is not intuitive, seems a bit cluttered....but might be worth the effort to customize the UI if a team wanted a robust, feature-rich, tool.



Summary:
If you want to share information for a small set of web services - a Wiki might be a better approach over a spreadsheet. I've recently adopted TikiWiki for team design collaboration for a current SOA project.

2008-02-18 Monday

The always insightful and very entertaining Dr. Gernot Starke has a link on his blog to his arc42 template (Architecture Documentation Structure Overview).

Another article he has recently published: ORDNUNG 2.0 – HILFEN FÜR
DEN INFO-DSCHUNGEL?
discusses the relative merits of using a Tag approach to how one might organize files (and thereby make them easier to find) - versus using the historical folder hierarchy approach that is more commonly used (he cites the advent and usefulness of the "Tag Cloud" concept as an example of the obvious utility oof this altenative approach. [Reading the paper was also a good chance for me to practice reading German again]

I'm installing HydraIRC today to give it a try. Here's its wiki.

"HydraIRC is an open-source IRC client with an attractive and easy to use interface. It supports DCC Chat and File transfers, Connecting to Multiple IRC Servers, Docking/Floating Windows, DLL Plugins, Channel Monitoring, Message Logs, Logging, Output Themes, Color Schemes, Buddy Groups, Auto-Connect, One-Click Favorites and more.

Features
Connects to multiple servers.
DCC File Transfers and Chat windows.
Fully Customizable GUI Layout.
Channel Monitor.
Event Logging.


I came across the Open Clip Art Library tonight - and downloaded their 0.18 release of 6,900 images to add to my development library repository. (They have 6403 New Clip Art and 7000+ Archived Clip Art)
2020-01-06 Update:
  • Per an email from Nathan Story, Founder of ClipSafari - "Open Clipart has been down for maintenance since March, and doesn't have full functionality any more (no way to search for images; limited selection of clip art)." - It appears Nathan has launched a worthy successor to Open Clip Art: https://www.clipsafari.com/
  • I noted this article, from May 2019:
From this Openclipoart Wikipedia article:
  • "The website has been unavailable since April 2019
  • "Since the shutdown, all pages on OpenClipart.org have redirected to a page asking users to donate money "to support protection." The message was updated December 25 with a statement that the site was being "gifted to the community" and that new files could once again be uploaded to the library; users of the site still cannot search or access existing files through the site
  • "When it became apparent that the site was not going to come back up some users discovered that the art files themselves were still available and used software to download (scrape) them. Using this technique 156,000 images, constituting the vast majority of the library, were recovered and put up on FreeSVG.org.[26] A second mirror was established at FreeSVGClipArt.com, taking advantage of the clips' lack of licensing restrictions.[27]"


I've been reading through the JIRA Issue Tracker for the Drools (JBoss Rules) project this weekend. Looking for some possible simple bugs to tackle as a way of getting my feet wet as a contributor to the community.

I've also been monitoring the IRC discussions (irc.codehaus.org #drools) of the Drools Developer team - learning a bit more about the current development efforts, issues, and future directions of the Drools project.

Another interesting resource to explore is the Atlassian FishEye (source code repository insight) tool used by the Drools project.

The evaluation of the Open Source WebLOAD-8.1 testing software continues - and so far I am still very pleased with its functionality and ease of use.


Results of the POVRay Short Code Contest #5 - The animation round. Some VERY cool animations.

I would like to spend some time looking into this tool: Persistence of Vision Raytracer.
The Persistence of Vision Raytracer is a high-quality, totally free tool for creating stunning three-dimensional graphics. It is available in official versions for Windows, Mac OS/Mac OS X and i86 Linux.

2008-02-08 Friday

What an incredibly busy week.

I've reviewed the book contract the pubisher emailed me - and have agreed to the terms they offered. A signed copy is on the way. Target delivery for the finished draft will be end of June.

I had an interesting inquiry from a possible client this week - I've asked my former colleagues at Assessments.com to collaborate on providing a solution. Seven years after I designed their original application architecture - the core components of their authoring, publishing, scoring, and reporting engines are still largely based on my original design and code. The flexibility of the design, based on very configurable meta-data rules, has stood the test of time very well.

This year I plan to expand my consulting practice by hiring additional staff and winning more client engagements.

I'm developing a SOA Dashboard application for a client that will generate some very useful SOA metrics based on harvesting certain governance messages and service health events from a core logging service framework. These messages will subsequently be processed and a summary report generated on a rolling basis. I'm planning on incorporating Graphviz to generate some very cool diagrams for the dashboard. This will be released on Sourceforge.net under the PNW SOA COMMONS (pnwsoacommons) project.




PushToTest

Over the last week, I've been assisting a client's Test Team with evaluating the capabilities of the PushToTest tool.

The 5.0 release I installed had problems replaying a very basic test scenario script that replayed fine under Firefox (using the TestGen4Web plugin).

Apparently, the 5.1 RC1 Release Notes indicate that there was a known problem with replaying scripts that worked fine under TestGen4Web:
"TestMaker 5.1 changes the way TestGen4Web scripts are run in the TestNode environment. The new script runner uses TestGen4Web's htmlunit-interpreter package. This improves TestMaker's ability to natively run TestGen4Web recorded unit tests."

In my experience, PushToTest 5.1 RC1 ***STILL*** has a problem replaying scripts that work perfectly under TestGen4Web (!!!)

After spending a few days attempting to resolve the problem - and facing mounting pressure from some stakeholders within the client organization - I had to find an alternative.





WebLOAD.org

I installed WebLOAD-8.1.0.141 - spent about 5 mintues going through one of their video tutorials - and was able to successfully run a load test against the target application.

If you try to use the webload.org download link to sourceforge.net - it will hang for some reason - but you can go directly to sourceforge.net and simply do a search for "WebLOAD".

Conclusions
I have to say I am VERY IMPRESSED with the quality of the WebLOAD application, documentation, and tutorials. PushToTest seems to me to still be a viable tool, and I will keep an eye on its future development.
