Open the "/etc/monit/monitrc" at the server:
nano /etc/monit/monitrc
And add this line right at the end:
include /etc/monit/conf.d/*
Now we're going to create the Monit configuration files, first the general configuration:
nano /etc/monit/conf.d/general.conf
And the file content: set httpd port 6874 allow localhost allow …

Twitter is using Lucene/ Java to scale out its (near real-time) search, but sticks to trivial types (instead of objects) to (re)gain performance.
Riak seems pretty cool: consistent hashing, auto-balancing, sharding — must investigate …
…of their architecture is that Sify does not use a traditional database. They query Solr and then retrieve records from a distributed file system. Over the years many people have argued for file systems over databases. Filesystems can work for key-value lookups, but they don't work for queries, using Solr is a good way around that problem. Another interesting aspect of their system is the use of Drools for intelligent cache invalidation. As we have more and more data duplicated in …
