Installing ZeroMQ and Java bindings on Ubunu 10.10 - 07 Feb 2011 10:21 - by martin_sustrik - Comments: 0

"For some times now, I'm following the slow evolution of AMQP toward it's 1.0 release. In the trip, one traveler decided that the road was far too long, and complex, and choosed to take its independence: ZeroMQ is living its own adventure for some times now. And their choices are intersting, really focused and sharp, so I needed to see what can be done with that message system, and a bit of Scala."

Python Multiprocessing With ØMQ - 03 Feb 2011 09:11 - by martin_sustrik - Comments: 1

As I was going over the various python code examples at github, I became interested in the taskvent / tasksink / taskwork examples. The pattern was recognizable as one I often use for distributed processing. In the past, I typically would have implemented such a work flow using the python multiprocessing library, using it’s Queue class to communicate between processes. Recently I’ve implemented several data processing pipelines for work using the same technique, but using zeromq channels for communication, and I’ve been extremely pleased with both the performance, and the ease of use.

Building a GeoIP server with ZeroMQ - 10 Nov 2010 10:01 - by martin_sustrik - Comments: 0

"I discovered ZeroMQ while researching Mongrel2 and thought it was worth deeper investigation. At my day job, we have lots of services that don't scale well inside our front end stack, so we expose them as a service that each front end consumes. Some examples: search, memcache, geoip resolution, geo targeting, compatibility between users, etc. Basically, anything that relies on state that is expensive to duplicate on each front end becomes a service."

ØMQ blog by Gerard Toonstra - 31 Oct 2010 11:44 - by martin_sustrik - Comments: 0

"I've downloaded 0MQ and decided to give it a spin. The first thing I did was visit the IRC channel on a saturday and there were 50 people in there. That's usually a very good sign it's quite popular. There's a good chance that 0MQ is getting some serious attention soon. It may not be the absolute topper in performance speed, but it may be best if jasa epoxy lantai you're looking for flexible solutions, prototyping and esxperimentation. Having said that, if you're not running a super-duper high-performance site that needs to squeeze all the juice of your CPU's and NIC's, ZeroMQ will do just very fine for you, no problems whatsoever."

ØMQ - The Game - 13 Oct 2010 10:47 - by pieterh - Comments: 0

So, this morning zeromq-dev had another report of ØMQ asserting when passed an invalid message. One thing we can all agree on, ØMQ should not crash when passed invalid data on the wire. But how to hammer the code heavily enough to let us state, "it's robust"?

Early next year we're going to organize our first international meetup, a conference, for the ØMQ community. It'll be in some nice European city, probably Prague Budapest. I'll have details later.

But this gives me an idea for making ØMQ totally robust, having some fun in the meantime. Here are the rules:

  • The goal is to crash a ØMQ/2.1 node by sending it invalid data of some kind via TCP.
  • Any TCP data is valid (e.g. TELNET), not just ØMQ messages.
  • First person to provide a test case that provokes a specific crash wins 1 point.
  • First person to provide an accepted patch for a reported crash wins 3 points.
  • The referees may allocate bonus points for particularly impressive contributions.
  • Crash reports must be logged in the ØMQ issue tracker.
  • Patches must be correctly submitted to the zeromq-dev mailing list and be for ØMQ/2.1 master.
  • The competition is open to everyone, without exception, except Pieter Hintjens and Martin Sustrik, who are the referees.
  • Collect and report your own points, as you go along. No-one else will count for you.
  • The referees are the sole arbiter and ultimate authorities of what constitutes a valid point.
  • Person with the most points wins.

Winner gets a speaker slot at the ØMQ conference, and travel to the conference and hotel paid by iMatix. Doesn't matter if you're in Aukland or Atlanta, we'll take care of it.
