• #1 25/03/2013 @ Smile : Review of new features of Esigate 4 and Esigate roadmap

http://fr.slideshare.net/nricheton/esi-gate-dev-meeting-25-032013

• #2 04/07/2013 @ Capgemini : Mantis ticket and code review
  • Esigate server : update tutorial, switch to GET for status command, use apache-compatible status report
  • Log : Log4j2 async logger looks greats for performance, but will wait for 1.0 release before investigating.
  • Driver#proxy : return Httpresponse instead of sending directly response to the client
  • Driver#proxy : investigate removing mediator usage within proxy method (issues : cookies, remoteUser, ...) maybe extend HttpRequest / Response https://sourceforge.net/apps/mantisbt/webassembletool/view.php?id=218
  • Url rewritting : merge code used for all rewritting use case : headers, cookies, links in html content. ResourceFixupRenderer is a good starting point. https://sourceforge.net/apps/mantisbt/webassembletool/view.php?id=178
  • HttpClient update : latest beta has one unit test regression. Need to investigate. https://sourceforge.net/apps/mantisbt/webassembletool/view.php?id=83
  • Esigate filter : should be easy with the latest code in trunk. Important for 5.0 https://sourceforge.net/apps/mantisbt/webassembletool/view.php?id=74
  • Performance unit test : fails on most systems -> issues with continuous integration and release. We need a better test, based on real-world testing. Move this test out of the main build. Investigate puppet usage to setup a performance test on any VM https://sourceforge.net/apps/mantisbt/webassembletool/view.php?id=168
  • Cookie handling in async validation request : Flag request as sent in mediator. This way we don\'t need a change in HttpClient. https://sourceforge.net/apps/mantisbt/webassembletool/view.php?id=236
  • CacheExtension : do not use too many options. The current code (not committed yet) may be too complicated. Need rework.
• #3 28/09/2013 @ Octo :
  • Recent implementations and presentations show a lot of interest in using Esigate as a website revamping tool, combined with tools like JSoup. It allows to make major changes in website without touching existing code, while adding caching and more integration. We should write a blog post on this and try to get feedback from users.
  • Default settings should be updated to prevent basic configuration/usage mistakes.
  • New multi-threaded esi processing should replace the previous code, unless performance issues are found.
  • We have one unfinished patch for HttpClient, should be completed ASAP.
  • 2 new users listed on website. We know other live or soon-live major website using esigate -> need to get in touch with these companies to get their logo on the home page.
  • Website shows increase in traffic. Spanish home page attracted Spanish-speaking visitors (x3 increase).
  • multiple mappings on a single provider will be supported thanks to latests changes on DriverFactory.
  • Metrics -used for esigate-server statistics- footprint is too big with default jetty integration when processing cached requests. Need remove some resource-intensive metrics .
  • CI jobs allow to preview the website generated from svn.
  • Need to integrate website generation (based on FAST) into the main build.
