Web-based application server ported to low-powered Linux device
Real Time Logic (RTL) released a free demo version of its user-friendly personal server stack. The BarracudaDrive demo runs on the "Unslung" Linux distribution available for Linksys's NSLU2 (aka "Slug") networked attached storage (NAS) device, and includes a lightweight, dynamic development environment that supports asynchronous communications.
BarracudaDrive V1.5.2 is a Linux-compatible secure application server assembled from selected plugins used in the Barracuda Embedded Web Server. Designed for personal and home use, it provides remote file management and enables the loading and starting of auxiliary applications, says RTL. An NSLU2 equipped with BarracudaDrive and external USB flash memory for storing database files provides an application server that is virtually maintenance free, claims the company.
