In an attempt to have some fun this morning I posted some iPhone “rumors” on Twitter.

Writing tired, formulaic Top-10 lists or posts with provocative titles is a shameless way to attract traffic. And I want in on the action!

Detecting concurrency-related bugs and performance bottlenecks is hard, especially on clusters consisting of a large number of nodes. In an interview with Artima, Terracotta co-founder and CTO Ari Zilka explains the importance of visualization in cluster-based applications, and introduces Terracotta's open-source cluster visualizer tool.

There are two times when all the unit and integration tests must run and pass: immediately prior to a check-in and on the build server. But during development, JUnit 4 offers some interesting options for managing pathological or long-running tests.

Over the past year and a half, I've been heavily involved in migrating a large size application from OC4J appserver to tomcat. At the time, it seemed both logical and relatively smart to choose cargo for launching our application with a more application server neutral configuration. I now regret that I made the jump to use cargo so naively.

In this follow up to a simple Hello World program which demonstrates Terracotta POJO clustering, I take an in-depth look at the dynamic bytecode instrumentation that Terracotta performs on a Class in order to hook it into the Terracotta runtime.

Last night's St. Louis JUG featured Alex Miller from Terracotta talking about his company's flagship product Terracotta.

It pains me to hear that Cooper considers most programmers twenty-story marshmallow barriers to good interaction design. Please don't be one of those programmers.

The Java 666 JSR may well be the answer to all of Java's ills. Alex Miller breaks it down.
