Long running processes

Key components of the Planetary System

The basic installation is:

  • Drupal - content management system
  • MySQL - database
  • apache2 - webserver
  • LaTeXML - text format converter (from LaTeX to HTML+MathML)

Peripheral features are:

  • NNexus - autolinking inside articles
  • Solr - search engine
  • Virtuoso - semantic web database, for category access
  • PyRDFa - harvests RDF triples to update the semantic web database

Stability for long-running processes

  • MySQL should keep itself alive - maybe we'll be lucky now that we've increased the memory allocated to the instance
  • Apache seems stable
  • LaTeXML is currently running on an external computer, so we don't have to worry about keeping it alive locally
  • NNexus, Solr, Virtuoso, and PyRDFa are installed locally but are not wired into the live system right now. When it works, PyRDFa runs as script.
