Some good performance improvements coming to MongoDB 2.2
Looks like we will get some improvement just by upgrading. This is great.

Some excellent strategies to improve conversion on your website.
Amazon’s CloudFront edge caching now allows you to use elements from the URL’s query string to manage your caching opening the door to dynamic content caching.
Excellent side by side comparaison of Backbone.js and Spine.js, two Javascript MVC frameworks.
Simple script to compile and execute a Java application with any number of parameters
JAVA=$JAVA_HOME/bin/java
JAVAC=$JAVA_HOME/bin/javac
JAVA_HEAP_MAX=-Xmx1024m
CLASSPATH=${CLASSPATH}
args=("$@")
#Remove old class files (suppress warning for DNE)
rm ${args[0]}*.class 2> /dev/null
echo "Compiling Script ${args[0]}"
$JAVAC -classpath "$CLASSPATH" ${args[0]}.java
numOfArgs=${#args[@]}
arr=()
for (( c=1; c <= $numOfArgs; c++))
do
let pos=$c-1
arr[$pos]=${args[$c]}
done
$JAVA $JAVA_HEAP_MAX -classpath "$CLASSPATH" ${args[0]} ${arr[@]}
This is very promising. Can’t wait to try it.

April sees the release of Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. This is a Long Term Support Release, which means that support and updates will be provided free of charge for 5 years from launch. The new release will feature improved…
We recently gave this talk at the local Boston MongoDB Meetup group. It’s a walkthrough of Traackr’s experience in choosing a NoSQL solution and how we ended up up switching from HBase to MongoDB. This deck goes through some in depth technical aspects, like schema design and our use of secondary indexes. BTW, the attendance at the meetup was great. We love the Mongo community in general and are looking forward to continuing to work with them and 10gen.
Great breakdown of some performance numbers using RabbitMQ
Very cool. Thanks for sharing the details.
Back in December I started putting some thought into the tumblr firehose. While the initial launch was covered here, and the business stuff surrounding it was covered by places like techcrunch and AllThingsD, not much has been said about the technical details.
First, some back story. I…
Very good tips to do proper logging (via @mumbojumbo).
My favorite is the last one “easy to read”. This is why logs are so hard to do properly, they should be easy to read even looking at the logs 1 month, 3 months or 1 year after you wrote the code. Writing logs becomes like writing a book or a short story. It has to make sense; tell the story even without knowing (or remembering) the code that’s behind. Which is why I find myself “proof reading” logs sometimes: running my application multiple times and just looking at the logs to make sure they make sense.
