scalr - Google Code

by 3 others
Scalr is a fully redundant, self-curing and self-scaling hosting environment utilizing Amazon's EC2. It allows you to create server farms through a web-based interface using prebuilt AMI's for load balancers (pound or nginx), app servers (apache, others), databases (mysql master-slave, others), and a generic AMI to build on top of. The health of the farm is continuously monitored and maintained. When the Load Average on a type of node goes above a configurable threshold a new node is inserted into the farm to spread the load and the cluster is reconfigured. When a node crashes a new machine of that type is inserted into the farm to replace it. 4 AMI's are provided for load balancers, mysql databases, application servers, and a generic base image to customize. Scalr allows you to further customize each image, bundle the image and use that for future nodes that are inserted into the farm. You can make changes to one machine and use that for a specific type of node. New machines of this type will be brought online to meet current levels and the old machines are terminated one by one. The project is still very young, but we're hoping that by open sourcing it the AWS development community can turn this into a robust hosting platform and give users an alternative to the current fee based services available.

Google Email Uploader - transferez vos emails et contacts depuis Outlook et Thunderbird sur Gmail

by 1 other
Google vient de mettre en service Google Email Uploader qui permet de transférer tous ces contacts et email provenant d'Outlook ou Thunderbird vers Gmail. Cette petite application installable ne fonctionne que si vous avez un compte sur Google Apps et non un compte Gmail classique. Maintenant, sachant que Google Apps Edition Standard est totalement gratuit, ça vaut peut être le coup d'ouvrir un compte et de tout transférer. En tout cas, pour les entreprises qui hésitaient à utiliser Google Apps pour éviter de devoir tout transférer manuellement, voilà une bonne nouvelle.

Home of the Geotag Icon Project

by 3 others (via)
The Geotag Icon is intended as a web "standard" icon for identifying geotagged content to humans. The advent of inexpensive GPS devices and free tools like Google Maps or Flickr Map mean that more and more people are associating their content (typically blog posts or photos) with a specific geographic location. Such "geotagging" stores coordinates within metadata or microformat tags—where machines can find them but people can't. That's where the Geotag Icon comes in. It provides a visual reference to a map link, or if no link is yet made helps viewers recognize the geographic relevance of the content. It's free, easy to use and helps us all visualize the developing semantic web.

galleria - Google Code

by 3 others (via)
Galleria is a javascript image gallery written in jQuery. It loads the images one by one from an unordered list and displays thumbnails when each image is loaded. It will create thumbnails for you if you choose so, scaled or unscaled, centered and cropped inside a fixed thumbnail box defined by CSS. The core of Galleria lies in it's smart preloading behaviour, snappiness and the fresh absence of obtrusive design elements. Use it as a foundation for your custom styled image gallery.

Twootr, do more with your bot — Yoan Blanc’s weblog

by 2 others, 1 comment (via)
il s’agit d’une application internet, honteusement recopiée sur Twitter, permettant d’intéragir avec ses amis (ou juste des gens) en se servant autant du site internet que par messagerie instantanée (via Jabber ou Google Talk). Tout ceci sans prétention aucune et par pur plaisir de mettre rendu compte de comment on peut architecturer un système tel que celui-ci.

Google Tableur - une nouveauté géniale pour mener des enquetes, sondages, etc ...

by 1 other
Google vient de nous livrer une nouveauté sur Google Tableur qui va faire parler d'elle. Partons d'un exemple. Vous voulez faire une enquete auprès de dizaines ou centaine de personnes. Pour cela, vous allez créer des formulaires de réponses, et les leur envoyer par mail, puis, vous n'aurez plus qu'à traiter les informations reçues. C'est là que la nouveauté intervient. En fait Google Tableur vous propose de créer des formulaires, de les envoyer à qui vous voulez ( donc pas besoin que les gens aient un compte Google Documents puisqu'il ne s'agit pas là de partager un document ), les gens peuvent directement répondre dans leur mail ou en cliquant sur un lien qui ouvre une petite fenetre puis, tous les résultats obtenus au fur et à mesure des réponses vont venir se mettrent sous forme de tableau dans Google Tableur et ceci automatiquement. Donc les données seront traités de façon automatique, il ne restera plus qu'à tirer les conclusions, créer les graphes, etc .... Vraiment génial.

Un client de geolocalisation en cinq lignes de PHP avec l'API Google Maps - Prendre un Café

by 6 others
Google propose des choses vraiment intéressantes au travers de ses API, comme par exemple son méconnu (car planqué dans la doc) webservice HTTP de géolocalisation. L'idée ici est de récupérer la lattitude et la longitude d'un endroit géographique à partir de sa description, par exemple Paris, France ou encore 3 allée des allouettes, 35000 Rennes, France.

ganeti - Google Code

by 1 other
Ganeti is a virtual server management software tool built on top of Xen virtual machine monitor and other Open Source software. However, Ganeti requires pre-installed virtualization software on your servers in order to function. Once installed, the tool will take over the management part of the virtual instances (Xen DomU), e.g. disk creation management, operating system installation for these instances (in co-operation with OS-specific install scripts), and startup, shutdown, failover between physical systems. It has been designed to facilitate cluster management of virtual servers and to provide fast and simple recovery after physical failures using commodity hardware.
