I have an application that uses a cron like job to update a set of data. The update process happens once a minute and doesn't last long. A servlet exposes this data set to the users. My problem is that during the update process, the servlet requests should block and wait for the process to complete. In bottom line I have these two func...

I am writing a client for a backup server. My client schedules some folders for backup. (ex: every friday at hour X). I am using for scheduling cron4j (a port of Linux cron to java). Everything works nice until i schedule at the same time multiple upload jobs, then due to the multiple threads it gets messy. Can anyone help me with a so...
What methods to you use to determine what kind of hardware you need for a server? I often find its very hard to predict what kind of hardware you will need for a web based application with a database. Do you have any good methods or recommendations on how to best pick hardware to use? ...
I have a server application developed using C++ running on Windows platform. This server uses Windows sockets to communicate with clients using TCP. The socket server architecture inside the application is quite simple. The application pools 'x' number of threads during startup. Whenever a new client connects to the server, one of the th...
I'm wondering if anyone knows how this happens? My website is down, but every computer on my internet connection/router can see it. I've cleared my cache etc, but another computer in the house shouldn't be seeing a site that's offline. How weird? It's hosted remotely, not on my network or anything. ...
Each client is identified by a hash, passed along with every request to the server. What's the best way to handle tracking a users session in this case? I'm using restful_authentication for user accounts etc. A large percentage of requests are expected to originate without a user account but just the unique hash. My understanding of th...

Hello, I was just wondering what language would be a good choice for developing a game server to support a large (thousands) number of users? I dabbled in python, but realized that it would just be too much trouble since it doesn't spawn threads across cores (meaning an 8 core server=1 core server). I also didn't really like the languag...
I am making a game server for a turn based game. Not a web based server, but a process-based one. I want it to be scalable and I want the development process to go as smoothly as possible. I haven't used Java in forever and I need to brush up on my skills, so I really have no idea what is out there framework or tool-wise. Right now it lo...
With regards to making a game server, it seems Erlang always comes up as a language that is "built for this kind of thing" with its scalability and concurrency features. I don't have experience in either Haskell nor Erlang, but on the surface they seem the same. Looking into Haskell's docs it seems like it has support for multiprocessor ...
Hello, I'm designing a game server and I have never done anything like this before. I was just wondering what a good structure for a packet would be data-wise? I am using TCP if it matters. Here's an example, and what I was considering using as of now: (each value in brackets is a byte) [Packet length][Action ID][Number of Parameters]...
I'm looking for an FTP server product with Active Directory integration for installation on a Windows server. I have been looking at different products, but I have a hard time finding a product, which has a decent Active Directory integration. I need something that integrates properly with Active Directory groups and is able to "merge" ...
In the ears of working in multiple teams, I've met multiple infrastructure managers that instituted a policy of weekly server reboots. As a developer, I was always against the policy - it seems that this is a hack to work around software bugs and hardware instabilities, instead of correcting them. What are the people's opinions, positiv...
This is an erlang problem, it seems. I have this code to test the client sending data, written in Actionscript 3: var socket:Socket=new Socket("localhost", 2345); socket.addEventListener(Event.CONNECT, connected); private function connected(event:Event):void { socket.writeInt(12); //packet length, should be correct? 4 bytes each? ...
I want to develop a multi-server clustered framework that will work similarly to the steps below for message flow. From Client Gateway Server Recieves Message Gateway Server sends an ACK Message (UDP) Message is custom deserialized from binary into an object via a factory Message is then routed to a secondary server in the cluster (co...
