@musicman I haven’t compiled #Apache since about 2002-2004. I just use OS packages now, because I know they will be updated.
It was great fun compiling a newer kernel and various servers.
Actually, I did compile it when I ran Gentoo, but that’s not quite the same thing.

What is #Apache #Hadoop? https://cloud.google.com/learn/what-is-hadoop
A short, very general overview. Mentions HDFS, YARN, MapReduce, and Hadoop Common as primary modules in Hadoop. Finishes up by talking about Google data analytics products.
-
@musicman I have no experience with #Atlassian #Confluence. I've seen it used as a wiki on a couple of #Apache projects, but that's all. I've heard rumors that it is difficult to use.
-
@musicman I just glanced at "the Oozie site":{http://oozie.apache.org/}. It is a workflow scheduler for Hadoop, but they neglect to explain how and why they named it Oozie. At least projects like "Forrest":{http://forrest.apache.org/} (now retired) and "Gump":{http://gump.apache.org/} do this, so I'd expect it for something with a name like Oozie.
#Apache #Forrest #Gump #Cocoon #Hadoop #Oozie

@musicman You’re right. And if I’m an enterprise user of something older, it might make me want to pull the records to see whether #Cassandra has been at the root of a lot of issues. OTOH, also as an enterprise user, if $COMPANY has already committed to using #Apache Cassandra, this might be “it is getting better, so now’s the time to go all in” time.

@musicman RE: their rival #ApacheSSL, all #DDG found was a Sourceforge project for the Win32 version. Even that hasn’t seen an updated release in a decade ( last code change was 2015 ).
I do see that ApacheSSL ( like #mod_ssl ) releases a version for each #Apache version. https://sourceforge.net/projects/apachessl/files/
-
@musicman I don’t know, but I could guess that #Apache #mod_ssl probably has versions because they pull in #OpenSSL, which has versioned security releases. Whenever these openssl versions become incompatible, things that hook into it, such as mod_ssl, need to release a new version that is compatible with the new one.
(I guess its rival #ApacheSSL must be completely dead now. I’ve not seen it mentioned anywhere in several years. Also not heard from is #mod_gnutls, which I used on my first self-hosted instance.)
-
@musicman I don't think there was a #TomEE in 2004. I hadn't even heard of #Glassfish yet. I used regular #Tomcat (with #Apache and #IIS) at school, and even looked into a #Java based web host ... but the work schedule and commuting (and then traveling and #hotel_INET) just made it not doable.
-
@clacke@libranet.de I mostly knew this already, but it is more a comment about how often I see it with #Nginx (almost never with #IIS or #Apache).
-
@musicman Oh, wow! I remember learning to install #Apache and #PHP from source 20+ years ago. Can't remember whether we actually compiled #MySQL or just extracted a precompiled tarball. On pre-RHEL #Red_Hat Linux and #FreeBSD.
.
Was fun, but upgrading could be tricky.

> Or would they perhaps fork the last truly free version, and together with others in similar straits, take over maintenance and development, cutting off the MongoDB corporate entity? Or visit #Apache's various #NoSQL projects and try out potential replacements?
The answer came less than 3 months after the license change[0]:
aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/new-a…
> Today we are launching Amazon DocumentDB (with MongoDB compatibility), a fast, scalable, and highly available document database that is designed to be compatible with your existing MongoDB applications and tools.
They slapped a MongoDB API on their Aurora service, the product underneath their RDS (Relational Database Service).

About a year ago, #MongoDB ( $_NASDAQ['MDB'] ) withdrew its #SSPL license from the OSI process to have it recognized & approved as "Open Source". https://nu.federati.net/url/265335 [opensourceforu com]
I tried to read the SSPL text ( https://www.mongodb.com/licensing/server-side-public-license ) myself. I was looking for the #Four_Freedoms ( which are fundamental to all #FOSS licenses ).
I think their real purpose was to make it impossible for SAAS vendors to operate anything dependent on #MongoDB without buying a commercial license instead of the SSPL.
(Would $CLOUD_VENDOR open source everything, including virtualization configs, systemd units, backup scripts in order to keep using MongoDB? Or would they perhaps fork the last truly free version, and together with others in similar straits, take over maintenance and development, cutting off the MongoDB corporate entity? Or visit #Apache's various #NoSQL projects and try out potential replacements?)
Note: I took a cursory glance at financials. MDB is still losing money, but revenue increase 61% last year, so it could break even or be mildly profitable this year, though analysts don't expect a profit within the next three years. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/mongodb-nasdaq-mdb-debt-no-190937053.html [finance yahoo com], https://simplywall.st/stocks/us/software/nasdaq-mdb/mongodb [simplywall st]
I looked briefly for a comparison of revenue trends pre-SSPL and post-SSPL, but saw nothing. I should probably devote some more time to it, but that will have to be another time.

It's pretty demoralizing to never get any responses from anyone but @lnxw48a1, but I am nothing if not persistent.
I realize I could interact more and gain more followers and I could post more. Maybe I'll give Mastodon a shot a see if I get more interaction there. I don't think I've joined an instance but maybe I have.
Anyway...

@musicman #Apache in general has something called “feathercast”. https://nu.federati.net/url/257151 #podcast
-
@musicman That’s awfully specific. There might be podcasts focused on webservers ( #Apache #httpd, #Lighttpd, #Nginx, #Cherokee, #OpenBSD httpd, etc ) and plugins / extensions ... maybe with some coverage of Web APIs and such. Or there might be some that cover everything the Apache org produces.
I’m not confident that you will find any #podcasts that cover only the intersection.

@musicman For anyone not knowing what #Kafka is, https://kafka.apache.org/ ... started by #LinkedIn, donated to the #Apache Software Foundation ... written in #Java and #Scala
Data stream pub-sub / processing / storage

@natecull IMO, the developer and user communities need to fork the language (or better cleanroom reimplement it). In the process, a lot of backwards compatibility and misfeatures could be removed during the required java.* and javax.* renaming.
.
Right now, #Eclipse and many #Apache projects are one lawyer letter away from shutdown. One Java++ is named and sufficiently diverged from Oracle's #Java, those projects could transition to the replacement.

I have a customer who I can see in their #apache log that API calls are getting to the server. However, it doesn’t appear things are getting back to the customer.
Aside from tcpdump, is there a good tool for seeing what apache is sending out? Maybe there is a higher setting of apache logging?
I am not an apache expert by any stretch. #linux
