Spike Asset Manager 0.30

Spike Asset Manager (SAM) is an open-source cross-platform framework for probing a system for components and reporting them. It includes a driver file that probes for components commonly found in a LAMPJ stack (Apache, MySQL, PHP, Tomcat, etc).

SAM can find multiple versions that are installed, query the rpm database and indicate whether components are running. Driver files may be edited to search for different components.

SAM can be extended by writing extension plugins (shell, perl, python, java, etc). It can also be extended by changing the code and creating additional directives for the driver file.

The list of components that SAM currently looks for include:

· apache2
· axis
· commons-logging
· hibernate
· java
· jetspeed
· jboss
· log4j
· mysql
· openldap
· openssl
· perl
· php
· python
· spring
· struts
· tomcat



What's New in This Release:

· This development release adds a Web server.
· There is now an AJAX enabled Web client to perform what was previously done via command line.
· This allows a common interface (across operating systems) as well as local and remote administration. AJAX is made possible with integration through MochiKit and JSON.
· The Web site has also moved to the SpikeSource developer Web site.
