CloudI (http://cloudi.org/) is a "universal integrator" using an Erlang
core to
provide fault-tolerance with efficiency and scalability. The CloudI API
provides a minimal interface to communicate among services so programming
language agnostic and protocol agnostic integration can occur.
CloudI currently integrates with the programming languages
C/C++, Elixir, Erlang, Java, JavaScript/node.js, PHP, Perl, Python, and
Ruby,
while including many reusable services that rely on the CloudI service bus.

The details for this release are below:
* An important bugfix was added for internal services that use
both CloudI service requests and info messages at high request
rates with the duo_mode service configuration option set to true
(service state returned from the info message handling wasn't
always saved previously under these conditions)
* Request rate testing was done both with and without the persistence
of service request data (using cloudi_service_queue in destination
mode)
as described at http://cloudi.org/faq.html#5_LoadTesting
* The 'nice' and 'cgroup' service configuration options were added for
external services
* The logging_set CloudI Service API function was added to allow
multiple logging modifications to occur dynamically
(similar to nodes_set for CloudI nodes configuration)
* Bugs were fixed and other improvements were added
(see the ChangeLog for more detail)

Please mention any problems, issues, or ideas!
Thanks,
Michael

There was a platform-related build-system issue that required an update
in the 1.5.4 release, so the downloadable files have changed to have the
different checksums below.

There were various improvements to cloudi_service_queue which I
neglected to mention:
* persisted service requests will not be corrupted due to a partial write
* retry_delay configuration argument for service name destinations that
appear infrequently or periodically as consumers of service requests
