Site Implementation

This site is developed using JSP pages running on JBoss/Tomcat.

News Headlines (on the front page)

  • implemented using JSTL Custom tags to retrieve an RSS XML newsfeed
  • uses JSTL tags to transform the RSS feed into HTML using a JSTL XML tag and a simple XSL stylesheet.

Tech News Blog & Dev Hints and Tips pages

  • is an open source project I host on SourceForge, called BBWeblog.
  • implemented using Jakarta Struts
  • the Action subclasses interact with a Data Access Object (DAO) to perform database access
  • DAO uses Hibernate 3.0.x to retrieve data from a MySQL database running on the same server

The site is running on Apache 2.0.54, JBoss 4.2.0 and Tomcat 5.0 on Linux Fedora Core 4. The server is a Pentium III 1GHz with 512MB, connected to the internet over a DSL line.

You can check my current server uptime on Netcraft's site survey.
