Open Source Server Operating Systems Clustering Software

smartmontools contains utility programs (smartctl, smartd) to control/monitor storage systems using the Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology System (S.M.A.R.T.) built into most modern ATA and SCSI disks. It is derived from smartsuite.

Ganglia is a scalable distributed monitoring system for high-performance computing systems such as clusters and Grids. It is based on a hierarchical design targeted at federations of clusters. Supports clusters up to 2000 nodes in size.

Son of Grid Engine is a community continuation of the old Sun Grid Engine project. It aims to be a big superset of available free gridengine code and patches. The main site is currently https://arc.liv.ac.uk/trac/SGE/ and https://arc.liv.ac.uk/SGE/ but release files are inaccessible there and being hosted here.

GGI stands for "General Graphics Interface", and it is a project that aims to develop a reliable, stable and fast graphics system that works everywhere. We want to allow any program using GGI to run on any platform requiring at most a recompile.

LINX is a distributed communication protocol stack for transparent inter node and interprocess communication for a heterogeneous mix of systems. For latest versions, see https://linux.enea.com/linx/. This project is no longer active and there are thus no further releases planned. As an alternative, a completely user space implementation of the LINX protocol on Linux (User-Mode LINX for Linux) has been developed. For details, contact Enea or send a message to the administrators of this project.

Thanks to carefully thought out architecture an emulator for all hardware (i386 i860 sparc hppa SGI Mips Alpha etc) on any hardware. A lot of new theories have gone into this trying to fix old problems.

Generic clustering/load-balancing platform (over a LAN or internet) using java based P2P Aorta workers that execute java "tasklets". Various tasklets can be implemented to solve fractals, process images, render webpages, crack RSA "brute force".

ArielCLUSTER is a very tiny implementation of PVM architecture, written in perl.

The BCR flavor of Cooperative Data Sharing (CDS) is a scalable, portable, flexible C-based API and daemon for initiating and communicating between processes/threads in uniprocessor and multiprocessor (e.g. distributed, SMP, and parallel) platforms.

The project focuses on developing an environment where one can harness idle CPU cycles of numerous networked systems to work together on a particularly processing-intensive problem. (distributed computing you may call it)

Extensive High Availability Modules (XHAM) provides “active-active” failsafe solutions to your Linux Firewall, Gateway, Router, Email Server, NIDS (Snort), Proxy, Samba, MySQL (with NAS), and Apache.

Globule is a module for the Apache Web server that allows a given server to replicate its documents to other Globule servers. Clients are automatically redirected to one of the available replicas.

Implementation of Fault Tolerant CORBA specification, V1.0 (OMG Document ptc/2000-04-04), extended to support large-scale, distributed systems. Implements both Passive (Cold and Warm) and Active replication styles.

This framework is essentially a Service Development Framework that uses non-invasive techniques to deliver the core features of a private cloud while maintaining independence from it

MICO/mt plans to document and implement multi-threading for MICO, RTCORBA, and AMI interfaces

Tools, information, and practices for creating and operating dependable, complex, distributed, software-intensive systems. * Sense - Measure - Analyze - Respond - Optimize * Keywords: Performance Co-Pilot - PCP - PCPMon - Rjobd

This software (written in C using Glib/Gtk+) allows you to set up a High-Availability fault tolerant cluster, for Linux, Solaris, and other UX systems. It includes heartbeat mechanism (network and/or disk), a monitoring process.

PHP-PBS, is a Graphical Interface to PBS written in PHP. It should work on all Linux platforms with apache and a MySQL database.

The Distribulator: Distributed Computing For The Rest Of Us. This is an SSH-based command execution and file transfer utility that includes support for batch, console, and shell integration modes, multiple server enviornments, and full audit logs.

WOOP(c) is an Open-Source Software Architecture.

XDAQ is a software platform designed specifically for the development of distributed data acquisition systems. The development is carried out at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research. Please visit http://xdaq.web.cern.ch

A set of documentation and scripts to install, configure, and manage the open-source darwin OS for use in a compute cluster environment.

chainssh is a shell script to smplify the ssh login via multiple sshgateways/firewallgateaways. e.g. connect from homehost via sshgateway to a clusternode with one command.
