Pobierz Storm Streaming Server

Lista zmian:

• Improved Writer Thread Pool utilization to reduce CPU spikes.
• Updated Storm Player in the Control Panel.
• Control Panel now indicates which VHosts are active and which are inactive or in an error state.
• Whenever a VHost with an active Control Panel session is modified, the browser will be redirected to the new host/port combination.
• By default, Storm will start its main VHost on port 8080. If the port is unavailable, it will increment the port by 1 and retry until a free port is acquired. The resolved port is then saved to preferences.xml.
