For Terracotta, a year of open source has been good for business

Thu, 03 Jan 2008 21:02:00 GMT
Terracotta makes a Java clustering solution that it calls "drop-in" technology. Terracotta is unique, says Ari Zilka, founder and chief technology officer, because it makes a way to offload temporary but important information that has traditionally been stored in expensive databases. In an effort to increase interest in the product, about a year ago Terracotta decided to open its source code and start giving the product away. According to Zilka, since Terracotta's entrance into the community, "we've seen only goodness."

LIBPERFUSE(2)						      BSD System Calls Manual						     LIBPERFUSE(2)

NAME
perfuse_mount, perfuse_open -- Request a puffs(3) mount from perfused(8) LIBRARY
library ``libperfuse'' SYNOPSIS
#include <perfuse.h> int perfuse_mount(const char *source, const char *dir, const char *filesystemtype, long int mountflags, void *data); int perfuse_open(const char *path, int flags); DESCRIPTION
perfuse_mount() sends a mount request to perfused(8). It is intended as a drop-in replacement for mount(2) for FUSE file systems daemons and libraries, so that they can work with perfused(8). The function prototype mimics Linux's mount(2), with the following arguments: source The source file system that will appear in df(1) and mount(8) listings. Defaults to /dev/fuse if NULL. dir The file system mount point. filesystemtype The file system type, as displayed by df(1) and mount(8). Defaults to ``fuse'' if NULL. mountflags This contains the same value as a mount(2) flags argument. data This contains the same value as a mount(2) data argument. perfuse_open() is a drop-in replacement for the open(2) system call where /dev/fuse is used. If path is different than /dev/fuse, perfuse_open() handles control to the regular open(2). RETURN VALUES
perfuse_mount() returns a file descriptor to the /dev/fuse socket on success, and causes exit on failure. SEE ALSO
