JBossTS/Narayana blog - a reminder

I haven't been cross-posting links to the JBossTS/Narayana blog recently and it's well worth taking a look at the team have written a number of great articles over the year, particularly around microservices and transactions.

HPTS 2013

Just back from a JCP-EC meeting, JavaOne and HPTS. Whilst I enjoyed them all, HPTS has to be my favourite. Unfortunately this year its schedule conflicted with JavaOne so I wasn't able to attend either event fully. But even just the 3 days that I was at HPTS were well worth the trip: it's a great workshop where you get the chance to meet people from all areas of our industry and talk without fear of confidentiality. "What's said at HPTS stays at HPTS".

I had the privilege of presenting again this year, on the topic of transactions, NoSQL and Big Data. I was also chairing a session immediately afterwards on a range of topics including hardware transactional memory. Overall the sessions are great, but it's the dinner and drink discussions that are the real value around the workshop. And it's a great chance to catch up with friends I tend to only see once every two years!

WS-TX Technical Committee closes its doors ...

As Ian Robinson put it ...

"Per section 2.15 of the TC Process [1] "Closing a TC", the TC has decided by a full majority vote of the TC membership to close the WS-Tx Technical Committee. The TC successfully delivered 3 OASIS open standard specifications:
WS-Coordination
WS-AtomicTransaction
WS-BusinessActivity

We delivered 2 versions of the standard, the most recent being V1.2 in 2009.

There are a number of mature implementations of these specifications and no outstanding issues being discussed by the TC.
In the early days of the TC we had many excellent discussions to tie down and deliver a tight set of specifications; we had some great face to face meetings in the US and Europe and developed some great working relationships which I think have (mostly) survived the duration of the TC.

Our work is done. Victory is declared. Thanks to everyone for making it both successful and enjoyable.
