NetKernel Standard Edition v.3.2.0

NetKernel is a resource-oriented computing platform. It provides advanced technology that makes building software easy and less expensive. The benefits of resource-oriented computing are proven: software is better, faster, and less expensive. Sounds like hype, doesnt it? And it would be... if NetKernel werent different... fundamentally different. 1060 NetKernel will deliver real economic benefits to developers, businesses and architects. Benefits start at the beginning of a project and last through the life of the system. With less code required to build applications, spend more time where it matters - working with users to build the system they need. Deployment and runtime maintenance is a breeze with NetKernels enterprise-caliber management facilities. Self-tuning and other features ensure consistent high-performance and the maximum value from a wide range of hardware including small devices and multi-core computers. Most importantly, NetKernel allows you to focus on what really matters: your business. 1060 NetKernel is a feature-rich environment with a vast array of capabilities. Its managed infrastructure supports applications and services residing in a logical level above the physical Java virtual machine and the native operating system. Within NetKernel all resources and services are identified by logical URIs which provides a layer of indirection above physical resources such as code and data. Main features: - Caching is intrinsic - logical URI addresses identify all resources. Just as the Web uses proxies and caches to relieve server load, NetKernel caches computed resources at any level to eliminate redundant computations. NetKernels cache dependency hierarchy ensures instant invalidation when dependent resources change. - Linear Scaling - the micro-kernel schedules work onto its tightly managed pool of threads. Because all requests are intermediated, full CPU core utilization is assured and systems scale with cores just as the Web scales with load-balancing. NetKernel is uniquely positioned to optimally exploit the next generation of multi-core computers. - Client-Server decoupling - logical URI addressing yields a loosely coupled flexible relationship between a resource server and its clients. A loosely coupled client server relationship allows the Web to adapt to change such as implementation and technology advances. Low-level changes no longer cause a rippling cascade of change through an entire system. - Generational evolution - since clients and servers are not directly connected they can be modified and updated independently. Just as a change of browser or web server does not impact the workings of the World-Wide-Web, you can modify client or server code within a NetKernel software system and it will gently flex and tolerate the change. You no longer have a rippling impact through a system from low level changes. - System separability and extensibility - Web sites can be extended indefinitely and progressively without ground-up redevelopment. So can NetKernel software systems. Services are independent and can be modified and new ones introduced without fear of side-effects.
