2.6.1 elliptics network release

Tagged:  

Elliptics network is a fault tolerant distributed hash table object storage.

This is a bugfix release without substantial changes.
Its changelog is also quite short:

  • fixed deletion command reference counters
  • improved processing of acked transactions (before this change it could take noticebly longer to complete transaction because of possible resends)
  • automatic tests refactoring

As usual, it is available as tarball from archive or git tree.

There is another news about elliptics network - we created Perl API to work with the network storage. It was implemented as a binding to elliptics library, and currently has support for high-level file IO API (read/write/delete files and histories) and low-level object manipulation functions are being tested.
Kudos to Max Dementyev.

It is not opened yet because I do not directly participate in it, but I will work on integrating bindings into main tree.

What's the latest on the Perl API? Is it available? If so where can I find it?

Thanks!

We started to merge repositories, but perl and autoconf tools require some magic to become friends.

I will post a news when it is ready. This will be a new release.

Great news! I was hoping for this, and even considering trying to make my own. I look forward to trying it out.
