Virgil still alive?

[lei...@gmail.com]

Playing with Virgil at work with Cassandra.  Just looking at options for integrating Hadoop with Cassandra, and also looking into SOLR for another project, so we thought we'd look here.  I got a little concerned when I saw that this project hadn't had a commit in a couple of months.

Alive and Kicking...

We moved much of the functionality out into libraries to allow people to pull in only what they need.  Virgil really only contains the rudimentary javascript UI.  Since we broke the project out, we haven't had much cause to update the UI or the REST layer.  We've focused primarily on the trigger and indexing modules.

Here are links to the other sub-modules:

https://github.com/hmsonline/cassandra-indexing

https://github.com/hmsonline/cassandra-triggers

https://github.com/hmsonline/cassandra-rest

https://github.com/hmsonline/cassandra-mapreduce

We're using the modules internally for our core data processing platform though, so definitely let us know if you have any issues or ideas for enhancements.

If you are looking to integrate with SOLR, we thought to leverage our trigger framework to index data w/ SOLR.  You can see the proof of concept code here:
