JAWS: A Framework for High-performance Web Servers

Overview Developers of communication software face many challenges. Communication software contains both inherent complexities, such as fault detection and recovery, and accidental complex-ities, such as the continuous re-rediscovery and re-invention of key concepts and components. Meeting these challenges requires a thorough understanding of object-oriented application frameworks and patterns. This paper illustrates how we have applied frameworks and patterns for communication software to develop a high-performance Web server called JAWS.

JAWS is an object-oriented framework that supports the configuration of various Web server strategies, such as a Thread Pool concurrency model with asynchronous I/O and LRU caching vs.. a Thread-per-Request concurrency model with synchronous I/O and LFU caching.

Virtualisation: Architectual Considerations and other Evaluation Criteria

In the past several years, server virtualisation technology has moved quickly and firmly into the IT mainstream. Of the many approaches to system virtualisation available in the market today, VMware's hypervisor architecture has gained the greatest market acceptance. This paper examines the architectural issues, solution support, and enterprise readiness required when deploying such a virtualisation solution.
