Doing research for undergrad student project - Please help!

All
I'm doing research for a Computer Science project and could use some help. The project we have chosen is to develop a web-based application using web 2.0 techniques like AJAX. Not sure if the details of the application are pertinent to my question, so I won't post them at this point. Basically, we are trying to make a personal web finance app in a browser, similar to http://www.buxfer.com.
We are currently working through the software engineering phases of development, but we need to decide what our server platform will be and put something together.
I recently attended a Sun Developer Days conf in Atlanta, and I like a lot of the new "web stack" support that is offered. Here is what we are thinking of using:
Server apps:
Operating System:     Solaris 10 (should we go with opensolaris? whats the difference?)
Application Server:     Glassfish (Java EE 5) (or should we use Tomcat?)
Web Server:     Sun Java System Web Server (or should we use Apache?)
Database:          MySQL (or should we use Postgre?)
Version Control:     Subversion (is this needed? will have 5 students collaborating on project)
Client developer tools:
IDE:          Netbeans 6
Web 2.0 Framework:     GWT (Google Web Tookit)
Does this stack make sense?
Are there any tutorials or guides to help me set this up???
thanks,
overwhelmed student

We are currently working through the software engineering phases of development, but we need to decide what our server platform will be and put something together.
I recently attended a Sun Developer Days conf in Atlanta, and I like a lot of the new "web stack" support that is offered. Here is what we are thinking of using:
Server apps:
Operating System:     Solaris 10 (should we go with opensolaris? whats the difference?)OpenSolaris is a moving target, Solaris in theory is not. But then again, why not Windows, *BSD or any flavor of Linux?
Application Server:     Glassfish (Java EE 5) (or should we use Tomcat?)Tomcat is a "reference" platform. From what I've seen Glassfish is the "next" version. Why not BEA or Websphere?
Web Server:     Sun Java System Web Server (or should we use Apache?)Or Zeus for that matter.
Database:          MySQL (or should we use Postgre?)Or Oracle of MS SQL server or Sybase?
Version Control:     Subversion (is this needed? will have 5 students collaborating on project)Or CVS.
Client developer tools:
IDE:          Netbeans 6
Web 2.0 Framework:     GWT (Google Web Tookit)There is nothing to help anyone give you tips on which way to go. A simple list of software is just a simple list of software. As you flesh out your project you also need to flesh out which each app can provide and hopefully then things get easier. You list no reason why you should tilt towards one app or another. Start with cost and go from there.

  • I need help for a school project please help MEEEEEEEDX

    ok ladies and gents help me out i need some info on oracle solaris 11 and i havent been able to find it online. here is the stuff i need:
    1. Number of Clients Supported-
    2. Number of Processors Supported-
    3. Support for SMTP, HTTP, DNS, File & Print and Remote Administration-
    4. Support for Windows, Linux, UNIX & Appleclients-
    5. Back up capabilities-
    if you know anything about this stuff please help me out i would greatly appreciate it. and have a great turkey day everybody.XD

    No one will do your work for you, particularly if it is schoolwork.
    You would be cheating and whatever grade you might get would be false because it wouldn't be your work.
    Here is the link to Oracle's documentation page.
    From there you can get to the documentation for Solaris 11.
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/documentation/solaris-11-192991.html
    There is a lot of OS documentation there, so you had better start reading.
      It will take some time for you to eventually undertand it all.

    I work on the CompactRIO 9068 that the password is lost for some time.
    Please  help me to  reset it, for finish my end of study project.
    Thank you,

    but the page of ni support does not work:
    https://sine.ni.com/srm/app/newrequest
    and I have the recovery.cfg file from NI with this steps :
    1.        Copy the recovery.cfg file, found in the zip folder attached at the bottom of the email, to the thumb drive. 
    2.        With the cRIO device powered off, plug in the USB drive to the controller.
    3.        Hold down the reset button while powering on the controller.  Continue holding the reset button until the status light turns on, then release the reset button.
    4.        Wait for the controller to boot.  This should take less than a minute.
    5.        Check that the password has been reset to the default. (you will still be prompted for a password even if the default is blank)
    6.        Reinstall software to the controller. Using the USB reset will leave the system in a state where it is unable to run LVRT
      I have followed the procedure as mentioned 
    Result: the LED "Status" is permanently blinking.
    Would you please provide as with another alternative so that we can fix this issue.

    My new iPhone 5 has black and white lines on the screen. It's not been damaged. I've tried turning it off but this does not solve the problem? Please help. I can't find my answer on the Internet.

    By far the most common problem hardware-wise seems to be scuffs on the aluminium. Yours is the first report of a faulty screen I've seen.
    If you use the same Apple ID on both devices it'll sync whatever you want it to - music/apps/photos/messages/etc.
    I've just switched from a Galaxy S3 to iPhone 5 (having already owned an iPad for a while) so I'm in a similar position!

  • Been stuck for over  a year, please help me do this

    so i have this laptop with 8gb ram and core i7 as well as 2 hdd (no raid).
    Now i heard about premiere (cs4) and my laptop is ready to take most of the advantage but the hard drive is the bootleneck.
    Basically, all i want is to do few cuts in a video that was filmed by sony hdr-sr11 camcoder in hd 1080 60i settings. Now i heard i need 3 hard drives etc, but at the moment, i only have 2.
    So is there anyway i can do simple cuts in premiere without losing any quality and slowdown in fps or is there any other software that can be better? I really don't want to lose any quality or fps with the g73jh-a2 asus laptop i have?
    i also have ati 5870 video card

    The lowest was 19mb, but was floating arond 30mb. Still that aint good..
    I can't afford the partition magic and i heard its not good to partition after installing windows. I am thinking of fresh install, but if there is a workaround, it would save me tons of time as not installing apps etc.
    For the setup
    1)Can i have the programs in secondary drive? What about just a game or 2?
    2)By projects, do you mean the videos that im going to edit?
    3)what is scratch?
    4) By media, do you mean videos im going to edit?
    Lastly, what about a bit of data? Like <50gb.. Pictures documents etc
    Like, truly anonymous

    i did hdtune and was the os drive was 100mb-19mb in the end and the
    secondary one was 105-45~mbps
    Those figures are disturbing. For any reasonably modern 7200 RPM disk these figures should be around 120 - 60 MB/s. If it goes down to below 20, something is seriously wrong. Now that may be caused by your partitioning or something else, hard to discern from here, but these results are worrisome.
    Maybe Partition Magic can help you get rid of all these partitions, otherwise a complete reformat and fresh install of OS & programs is all that is left.
    Setup should be something like this:
    C: OS & programs & projects
    D: Pagefile, scratch and media
    It depends a bit on the nature of your projects, your workflow, but in general you set up your disks in such a way that disk accesses are spread over the available disks as much as possible.

    Normally, when you connect via http, the browser doesn't check for site identity, so I don't understand what's happening there.
    Do you have any security-related add-ons that force popular sites to use a secure connection, or claim to provide anonymous browsing?
    Were you making the connection on your own network or on a public network (e.g., school, coffee shop)? If it was a public network, maybe the error indicates that your traffic was being intercepted???
    Without hands on, this is a tough one to diagnose.

    Well, assuming all of the above, Notifications, etc., it just might be time for a visit to the Apple tore genius center for a session with the techs.  See if it is a fault in the hardware or just an iOS reinstall is the answer.
    One more thing you could try, backup so you have a record of content, then restore to factory conditions be an Erase All Contents and Settings.  Then restore from the backup you just made.  That has helped some with WiFi problems, may be it would work with your problems.
    But with that behavior of another app with problems, the geniuses looks like a less stressful thing to do.

    My iPod 2G doesn't turn on. It is out of battery, but when I connect it to my charger it just continues to show the apple logo. It did that for 3hours straight. Please HELP!

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    this may happen on external drives if:
    The external drive was hotpluged (removed) without going the correct "eject" way
    The iTunes library (database) got corrupted
    First Aid for external drive
    Close iTunes
    Unmount (eject) external drive the right way.
    Mount drive again
    Go to Workplace -> right click external drive -> choose "clean up" This will force the filesystem to rescan the file structure of the drive and rebuilding the file system table and journaling file.
    After the tool shows "done" (could last some time depending on size of drive) restart iTunes
    If your iTunes library is on your internal drive, this may happen
    The system was not shoot down correct, e.g. "pulled the plug"
    The iTunes library (database) got corrupted
    First Aid for internal hard drive
    Close iTunes
    Reboot system
    Go to Workplace -> right click external drive -> choose "clean up"
    After the tool shows "done" (could last some time depending on size of drive)
    Reboot system, restart iTunes
    If none of the above fixes your problem, post here.

    My iPhone 4 no longer appears in iTunes. But it does charge. Tried most tips please help someone!

    Hi there,
    No I didn't. Someone suggested in another thread that my iPod was registering as a disk instead of a device, so if I removed my iPod as a disk on Disk Utility then it would reload etc. and show up in iTunes. Which it didn't, and instead just cleared all my music (16,000 songs).
    So frustrating.
    Hope if you have the same problem you are able to find a better solution!
