Comment on Simulating Auto Increment in VoltDB by Tim Callaghan

Another option, if you can get by with just two unique values per stored procedure invocation, is to use the positive and negative values of getTransactionId() from within the stored procedure. I wrote up this in the following post, http://community.voltdb.com/node/17

Sorry, is working now, looks like I was missing a clean restart, but still I will work on the configurable part.

Hi Simon, this is a great idea for a dashlet and can be very useful, unfortunately I can’t make it work in my installation (Alfresco CE 4.0.d) Do I have to modify something? Jira version is fine and just confirm the REST interface. Also from what I read it works only with one user (username/pass in config file) I want to extend it to be configurable for each user to access their own jira tickets, I was reading at REST documentation and seems possible, can you give me a hint about how to achieve this?
Thank you,
Luis

Comment on Multi-Tenancy by Oksana Kurysheva

Benefits:

- if you have 10 small companies who want to use Alfresco Enterprise you can give them 10 virtual machines and pay for 10 Alfresco CPUs or you can use multi-tenancy and pay for 1-2 CPUs for all 10 SMALL companies.

- configuration upgrades, Alfresco upgrades

But of course you will have problems with things like shared business processes or content models. I don’t know how to restrict the usage of content models of one company by users of another companies.

Comment on The origin of the name “Skype” by Coco_h90

“Sky
peer-to-peer”, which was then abbreviated to “Skyper”. However,
some of the domain names associated with “Skyper” were already
taken.Dropping the final “r” left the current title
“Skype”, for which domain names were available.

Hi Simon, do you have a screenshot of how it looks like?

Comment on Creating Thumbnails From A Video With Flex by Simon Buckle

Did you try it with a live stream? I just did and it worked fine for me. I set-up a live stream using QuickTime Broadcaster and Wowza and was able to create thumbnails of the stream while it was playing. All the code does is create a bitmap image from whatever is being displayed at the time. The “type” of video stream is irrelevant.

Comment on Using Hadoop to Analyze Apache Log Files by Simon Buckle

One option could be to rotate the logs more frequently, which will result in smaller logs.
