jSuneido is the Java version of the server portion of Suneido. This version is multi-threaded and can run 64 bit to take advantage of more memory. It is aimed at larger installations e.g. 50 users. It can run anywhere Java is available e.g. Mac or Linux. (avoiding the cost of Windows licenses for the server) The older cSuneido is still used as the client, it’s still Windows only.
We’ve been running jSuneido in-house at Axon (Suneido’s originating company with about 50 users) and at one of our larger customers. It works well in-house, but our customer gets a lot more transaction conflicts than they used to. This is due to some changes I made to the database implementation that didn’t turn out to be so good.
After discovering the problems I wrote an append-only database storage engine. The first version of this had some major problems and I had to go back and rewrite it. The latest version looks very promising.
Axon and one of our smaller customers are now running the new jSuneido and it’s working well. We plan to update our large beta customer next week.
As usual the jSuneido source code is in Mercurial on SourceForge. On Windows I access it with TortoiseHg. I’ll include a pre-built jar file with the next release of Suneido. Let me know if you’d like a copy before then.
You can read more about my work on jSuneido (and other things) on my blog: The Software Life.
