- SmartFrog
SmartFrog is an
open-source software framework, written in Java, that manages the configuration, deployment and coordination of a software system broken into components. These components may be distributed across several network hosts.The configuration of components is described using a
domain-specific language , whose syntax resembles that of Java. It is a prototype-based object-oriented language, and may thus be compared to Self.The framework is used internally in a variety of
HP products. Also, it is being used byHP Labs partners likeCERN .As of 2007, the framework is being actively developed by
HP Labs . It is available under theLGPL .References
