Open Source BSD Distributed Computing Software

TurboVNC is a high-performance, enterprise-quality version of VNC based on TightVNC, TigerVNC, and X.org. It contains a variant of Tight encoding that is tuned for maximum performance and compression with 3D applications (VirtualGL), video, and other image-intensive workloads. TurboVNC, in combination with VirtualGL, provides a complete solution for remotely displaying 3D applications with interactive performance. TurboVNC's high-speed encoding methods have been adopted by TigerVNC and libvncserver, and TurboVNC is also compatible with any other TightVNC derivative. TurboVNC forked from TightVNC in 2004 and still covers all of the TightVNC 1.3.x features, but TurboVNC contains numerous feature enhancements and bug fixes relative to TightVNC, and it compresses 3D and video workloads much better than TightVNC while using generally only 5-20% of the CPU time of the latter. Using non-default settings, TurboVNC can also be made to compress 2D workloads as "tightly" as TightVNC.

Tools for the Linux Kernel's network block device, allowing you to use remote block devices over a TCP/IP network. Note that we have moved to github: https://github.com/NetworkBlockDevice/nbd

DRBL provides diskless or systemless environment. It uses distributed hardware resources and makes it possible for clients to fully access local hardware. It also includes Clonezilla, a partition and disk cloning utility similar to Ghost.

SocketTest - powerful and small software tool for socket testing. It can create both TCP and UDP client or server. It can be used to test any server or client that uses TCP or UDP protocol to communicate.

Joone is a neural net framework written in Java(tm). It's composed by a core engine, a GUI editor and a distributed training environment and can be extended by writing new modules to implement new algorithms or architectures starting from base component

CGRU is an open source CG tools pack, includes Afanasy render farm manager and RULES project tracker.

DelphiWebStart (DWS) is an Application Loader with TCP Sockets based on a ThinClient first spread over the Web, VPN or Intranet. So a user can download data (exes, maps, files) from a list and start it. DWS supports OpenSSL including a PKI HTTPS-Server.

Ganglia is a scalable distributed monitoring system for high-performance computing systems such as clusters and Grids. It is based on a hierarchical design targeted at federations of clusters. Supports clusters up to 2000 nodes in size.

MARIE is a robotic development and integration environment focused on software reusability and exploitation of already available APIs and middlewares used in robotics. Its main purpose is to create a rapid-prototyping approach to robotics developments.

Tyrex provides J2EE services for security and authentication, local and distributed transactions, resource configuration and pooling, and TP monitoring.

JPPF makes it easy to parallelize computationally intensive tasks and execute them on a Grid.

openQRM is a web-based open source datacenter management and hybrid cloud computing platform that integrates flexibly with existing components in enterprise data centers. Releases available at https://github.com/openQRM/openqrm-community. Please visit http://www.openqrm-enterprise.com for latest 5.3 free Community Release. Includes important security updates, bugfixes and enhancements especially for KVM and Cloud plugin. openQRM abstracts Virtualization and supports the following virtualization technologies: KVM, XEN, Citrix XenServer, VMWare ESX & LXC. The Hybrid Cloud Connector in openQRM supports a range of private or public cloud providers to extend your infrastructure on demand via Amazon AWS, Eucalyptus or OpenStack. openQRM automates provisioning, virtualization, storage and configuration management, and it takes care of high-availability.

An Open Source implementation of Java Message Service Specification, which can be run in embedded or standalone mode. It supports the connectors for TCP, SSL, HTTP, HTTPS and RMI and can be used with any JDBC compliant database.

Loki Render allows you to create your own render farm, serving Blender render jobs to a group of computers. Loki is easy to setup and runs on Linux, Windows or Mac, making it a quick and flexible distributed network rendering solution!

A general purpose implementation of the xmlrpc specification in C.

dispy is a generic and comprehensive, yet easy to use framework for creating and using compute clusters to execute computations in parallel across multiple processors in a single machine (SMP), among many machines in a cluster, grid or cloud. dispy is well suited for data parallel (SIMD) paradigm where a computation (Python function or standalone program) is evaluated with different (large) datasets independently. dispy supports public / private / hybrid cloud computing, fog / edge computing.

The TclSOAP package provides a mechanism to bind Tcl command procedures to remote procedure calls using the Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) and XML-RPC over HTTP. Both client and server code is provided.

Equalizer is the standard middleware to create parallel OpenGL-based applications. Please visit https://github.com/Eyescale for current development information.

Postgres-XL is a PostgreSQL-based scale-out cluster that handles both OLTP write intensive workloads as well as OLAP/BI type of workloads thanks to MPP parallelism. Postgres-XL is fully ACID and supports cluster-wide Multi-version Concurrency Control (MVCC) for global consistency and performance. There are commercial companies such as 2ndQuadrant, who provide support and consulting around Postgres-XL. Please visit http://2ndquadrant.com/en/resources/postgres-xl/ for more details.

BSPonMPI is an implementation of the BSPlib standard on top of MPI. Both MPI and BSPlib are API's of communication routines meant for parallel computing, but BSPlib is easier to learn and its performance easier to predict.

Jadex is a Belief Desire Intention (BDI) reasoning engine that allows for programming intelligent software agents in XML and Java. The resoning engine is very flexible.

Blazegraph has moved to Github. Please see https://github.com/blazegraph/database/.
