I want to build something to store and serve up time series data, which is coming in from a variety of sources at different time intervals. this includes both raw data and computed data. for example, let's say I want to log an every-30-seconds temperature reading, and a temperature forecast I'm calculating separately every 5 minutes. I ...
We are finding that for a large sets of data server controls (with the amount of postbacks) they do often times result in a very slow performance. While we don't want to do all the business logic in Javascript, we would like to speed things up. What were your solutions/ideas? AJAX? ...
I am looking at the Zend Server (PE and CE) and am woundering if its just a frontend for php.ini and automatically has Zend Optimizer which basically is APC(right?) in it or if it would actually be interesting for our development machine. Basically does Zend Server have any special sauce I can't get from opensource caching software and w...
We have decided to go with a virtualization solution for a few of our development servers. I have an idea of what the hardware specs would be like if we bought separate physical servers, but I have no idea how to consolidate that information into the specification for a generalized virtual server. I know intuitively that the specs are n...
We have a requirement that our web app will do a mail merge and generate some Word documents. Of course this is very easy to do using Word automation but is not recommended by Microsoft http://support.microsoft.com/kb/257757. "Microsoft does not currently recommend, and does not support, Automation of Microsoft Office applications ...
I'm planning on writing an RPC server in Java. The server needs to accept incoming RPCs - probably over HTTP - and answer them. Fairly basic stuff. Support for 'long polling' or 'hanging' RPCs isn't necessary, so a thread-per-request model ought to be perfectly adequate. If I were writing this in Python, I would probably use a framework...
I want to write a text file in the server through Php, and have the client to download that file. How would i do that? Essentially the client should be able to download the file from the server. ...
Hi Could any one know apache server is not starting in fips mode in some PCs. Description: We have a client-server application where Apache webserver is the server and IE is the browser. Recently we have made this Apache webserver FIPS 140-2 compliant. Hence now it can work in FIPS mode. We are able to run the server in FIPS mode on a...
In my application, the client is a Javascript set of functions in the browser, and it does some work - for example, playing a clip. It uses XmlHttpRequest to talk to the server. However, the server is allowed to abruptly close the connection since there is no other way it seems, to interrupt the client. Can the client detect, while it i...
I want to host http://somedomain.com on shared server somewhere. And I want to host http://somedomain.com:89 on my home server running Apache. What's the easiest way to set this up? ...
Hi! This is more of an hardware question than a software one but still...: I would like to have a server at home to play/experiment with it. The usages would be to host my own repositories (bzr, svn, etc), have a small webserver to host a wiki/trac for my personal programming projects and a ftp to host files. So I'm considering buying a...

I'm writing a flash app using the open source tools. I would like to load a data file in to the app and capture a screenshot of the stage on the server. The only part that seems mysterious is running the app on the server. In fact, I don't even care if it's the same app running on the server and in the browser--if I can use the flash sta...

Briefly, I need to create a server whose back end queries information from another server. I'm wondering how others might approach this problem. Here's a longer description of the problem: I need to create a server (call this server Alpha) that makes requests to another server (call this server Omega) based on web pages that are reque...
I am adding code to use a proxy server to access the Internet. The code works fine when requesting a file from a normal (HTTP) location, but does not work when accessing a secure location (HTTPS). This is the code that works just fine: URL = "http://UnSecureSite.net/file.xml" Dim wr As HttpWebRequest = CType(WebRequest.Create(URL), Htt...

I've written a client/server model in C# using .Net remoting. If I have the client connected to the server, then kill the server and restart it without trying to call any server methods from the client whilst the server is down, I can reconnect happily. If I close the server then try to ping the server from the client (which I do from a...

I am setting up a web server for a client. They will be using a web app (PHP/LAMP) that I am building. The server will be sitting within their network locally. There will also be a MySQL database on the same server. The load on the server will only be 20-25 concurrent users, but uptime and performance is still very important. The app...
