Swarm: Open Source Web App Scaling
,----[ Quote ]
| A new open source project called Swarm
| bills itself as "a transparently scalable
| distributed programming language." It's
| been written to tackle one of the thorniest
| problems of today's cloud-centric world:
| How do you create applications that can
| scale up and out without driving yourself
| nuts?

Open source software can save India $2 bn
,----[ Quote ]
| As Indian consumers and enterprises evaluate the option of
| upgrading to Microsoftâs much-touted operating system (OS)
| Windows 7, to be officially launched on October 22, the free
| and open source software (FOSS) community has fired yet
| another salvo at proprietary software.
|
| In the year 2010, if FOSS is adopted at 50 per cent levels
| across the economy, India can save around $2 billion (around
| Rs 9,800 crore), suggests a study conducted by the Indian
| Institute of Management-Bangalore. Even a very conservative
| estimate, notes the study, pegs the cost savings for use of
| FOSS on servers as an operating system or as an application
| at Rs 138 crore in 2010.
