Inferno® is a distributed operating system, originally developed at Bell Labs, but now developed and maintained by Vita Nuova® as Free Software. Applications written in Inferno's concurrent programming language, Limbo, are compiled to its portable
... [More]
virtual machine code (Dis), to run anywhere on a network in the portable environment that Inferno provides. Unusually, that environment looks and acts like a complete operating system.
The use of a high-level language and virtual machine is sensible but mundane. The interesting thing is the system's representation of services and resources. They are represented in a file-like name hiearchy. Programs access them using only the file operations open, read/write, and close. The 'files' may of course represent stored data, but may also be devices, network and protocol interfaces, dynamic data sources, and services. The approach unifies and provides basic naming, structuring, and access control mechanisms for all system resources. A single file-service protocol (called Styx or 9P2000) makes all those resources available for import or export throughout the network in a uniform way, independent of location. An application simply attaches the resources it needs to its own per-process name hierarchy ('name space').
The system can be used to build portable client and server applications. It makes it straightforward to build lean applications that share all manner of resources over a network, without the cruft of much of the 'Grid' software one sees.
Inferno can run 'native' on various ARM, PowerPC, SPARC and x86 platforms but also 'hosted', under an existing operating system (including FreeBSD, Irix, Linux, MacOS X, Plan 9, and Solaris), again on various processor types. [Less]

JBoss Messaging was designed and built from the ground up and was not based on the JBoss MQ architecture and is 100% JMS Compliant
The main new features are related to clustering functionality. JBoss Messaging contains a fully functioning and
... [More]
highly scalable clustering implementation. Unlike JBoss MQ, JBoss Messaging does not rely on a "HA Singleton", this was a major drawback in JBoss MQ, where only one JMS server in the cluster was active at any one time, providing a scalability bottleneck. With JBoss Messaging this limitation disappears and all nodes in the cluster can simultaneously host active JMS servers allowing the load to be distributed much more smoothly. [Less]
