It is no secret that our Cherokee-Project Community has been growing steadily and relentlessly over the last couple of years. In fact, it has been doing so well that we’ve reached a point where holding a conference about the project actually makes a lot of sense. A lot of people have been asking about this, [...]

On a previous post I introduced our first Cherokee Project screencast. We were going to wait for a new and improved website before we made them public, but what the hell! Why wait? I’m sure the new Cherokee-Project Screencast Collection will come in handy for many of you.

From here I’d like to thank P.V. Anthony [...]

Alvaro an I have been putting together a screen-cast to show an overview of Cherokee-Admin’s capabilities. It is just an introduction, but I think this kind of thing is really helpful to spread out the word about Cherokee’s multiple merits.
We wanted to brag about our little baby. After all, not every serious web server out [...]

No, don’t worry. I’m not going to play with you and expect you to work for free as my personal advertisement company. I have to recognize that I’m astonished that Microsoft got away with it with all it’s Windows 7 craze, which once again proves that there are lots of guys out there that outsmart [...]

I said in another post that I would be using a Thin Client as my home server. The machine is fanless, diskless and it makes no noise. The system boots from a low power Compact Flash. After setting things up, some friends decided to buy the exact same machine, so I’m [...]

Do you have a server at home running 24/7? Having permanent access to your home network can be very useful at times, as is sharing media and printers, or managing your downloads. My last server was actually a downgrade from my previous box in computing terms. It was no powerhouse, but being a fanless Epia [...]

It has been a while since my last post. Some rough month this has been, oh boy. Anyway, I wanted to let you know that we have released the new and improved Cherokee a couple of days ago.
Since the project has advanced so much over the last months, we have decided to boost the release [...]

I have talked previously about Cherokee’s MySQL Database Bridge, so I won’t be repeating myself. Check the information about the Cherokee handler module and the recipe for MySQL balancing on our main site if you are interested.
Besides being the fastest implementation of its kind, it is really easy to use and offers a lot of [...]

I’ve been writing a wrapper for Cherokee’s MySQL load balancer to transparently replace PHP’s MySQL functions and provide connection pooling and database balancing at absolutely no cost. And I encountered a problem wanting to override those built-in functions.
It looks like the override_function() has a bug that prevents from using it to override two or more [...]

You know those times when you stumble upon a good idea and think it is plain genius?
Alvaro told me about it this morning and I just had to share it with everybody. This is what you will find if you visit http://apache-es.org, a community in Spanish built to talk about Apache and system administration.

The “aviso” [...]
