  • LAMP and the REST Architecture Step by Step Analysis of Best Practice
    LAMP and the REST Architecture Step by step analysis of best practice Santiago Gala High Sierra Technology S.L.U. Minimalistic design using a Resource Oriented Architecture What is a Software Platform (Ray Ozzie ) ...a relevant and ubiquitous common service abstraction Creates value by leveraging participants (e- cosystem) Hardware developers (for OS level platforms) Software developers Content developers Purchasers Administrators Users Platform Evolution Early stage: not “good enough” solution differentiation, innovation, value flows Later: modular architecture, commoditiza- tion, cloning no premium, just speed to market and cost driven The platform effect - ossification, followed by cloning - is how Chris- tensen-style modularity comes to exist in the software industry. What begins as a value-laden proprietary platform becomes a replaceable component over time, and the most successful of these components finally define the units of exchange that power commodity networks. ( David Stutz ) Platform Evolution (II) Example: PostScript Adobe Apple LaserWriter Aldus Pagemaker Desktop Publishing Linotype imagesetters NeWS (Display PostScript) OS X standards (XSL-FO -> PDF, Scribus, OOo) Software Architecture ...an abstraction of the runtime elements of a software system during some phase of its oper- ation.

  • Name Description
    Perl version 5.10.0 documentation - perlnewmod NAME perlnewmod - preparing a new module for distribution DESCRIPTION This document gives you some suggestions about how to go about writingPerl modules, preparing them for distribution, and making them availablevia CPAN. One of the things that makes Perl really powerful is the fact that Perlhackers tend to want to share the solutions to problems they've faced,so you and I don't have to battle with the same problem again. The main way they do this is by abstracting the solution into a Perlmodule. If you don't know what one of these is, the rest of thisdocument isn't going to be much use to you. You're also missing out onan awful lot of useful code; consider having a look at perlmod, perlmodlib and perlmodinstall before coming back here. When you've found that there isn't a module available for what you'retrying to do, and you've had to write the code yourself, considerpackaging up the solution into a module and uploading it to CPAN so thatothers can benefit. Warning We're going to primarily concentrate on Perl-only modules here, ratherthan XS modules. XS modules serve a rather different purpose, andyou should consider different things before distributing them - thepopularity of the library you are gluing, the portability to otheroperating systems, and so on. However, the notes on preparing the Perlside of the module and packaging and distributing it will apply equallywell to an XS module as a pure-Perl one. What should I make into a module? You should make a module out of any code that you think is going to beuseful to others.
