mysql_cluster

This database backend enables the user of master/slave databases nicely. It includes middleware to send POST requests to the master and most GET requests to the slaves effectively making database writes hit the master and database reads pull from the slaves. It also has nice controls to override this default POST/GET switching at the view level and even at the Python coding level. Overall the impression seems very well done.

Better Web App Development

An interesting video (.mov file) covering a number of ways to produce web applications, including JSEE/JSP, Ruby on Rails, Plone, TurboGears, and Django. I really liked that the author showed the coding process for each one giving the viewer insight into each toolset. In the end it looks like Plone won out with Django coming in a close 2nd.
