Description
Jan Balster presents a distributed computing approach
and applications. There are different approaches to the
distribution problem, each solution emphasises a special part
of the problem. py.execnet provides an ad-hoc approach towards
distributing programs which can work without any server
side installation (except SSH and Python installed).
It executes client-provided code fragments asynchronously,
making server code maintenance superfluous and enables the
clients to define the communication protocols.
As part of the py lib py.execnet is developed in a test-driven
style and is used in many different projects. After a quick
introduction to using py.execnet this talk will provide
interesting examples like robust hotsyncing of svn
repositories or collecting system information from
many (XEN) hosts.
