I am in the process of trying to graphically represent all of our server racks. So when we receive a new server we can decide where this should be put and where a specific servers currently resides.
Are there any existing software packages that stores this kind of data already? I'd prefer open source ones if there are any but anything would be helpful.
If you use nagios as monitoring application you could use NagVis to create custom status maps e.g. a rackview of your servers.

RackMonkey seems to fit your requirements too.
I had a look around at this and the solutions suggested (thanks Node) and at the moment my feeling are using one of the following:
NVentory though I'm not sure my company will want to use ruby and rails as this would be our first product using this
Rackview
Or more likely just MS Office Visio 2007 Add-in for Rack Server Virtualization however this looks like it only links to excel and hopefully I can use excel to query a database.
I will update when I have played about with these tools and see what they can provide.

I'm in need of a large repository of open source projects (around 1000 or more, the programming languages don't matter, but a good mix will be nice) for my research work. I thought of downloading projects from Github/SourceForge/Codeplex, but I cannot find the right API's to do it.
Does anyone know whether it is possible to download projects from the aforementioned websites (Like, how Twitter allows us to grab tweets from the public time-line)? Or any other place where I can get a good mix of open source projects?
Pretty much all open source repositories allow remote access via the appropriate source control provider - so the simplest way to download all the projects from Github would be to use git. Even if there's no API for it, all you need to do is find the right URL for each repo, and scraping something like the "explore" page should be easy.

I am writing a database application in C linux. Currently I work on mysql but later we might migrate to postgres. Therefore my boss has asked my to prepare the application to be able to use either of the databases(mysql or postgres).
Is there a free api which I can use for this purpose? Or any suggestion on how best I can do this?
The official answer to that is ODBC.
If you don't like that (and let's face it, no one really does), Qt has a database access module, QtSql. Obviously, this will require you to make heavy use of Qt in your application.
If you can find drivers for your platform, ODBC was supposedly meant to provide exactly this: a platform-independent way to talk to databases.
(I say supposedly because in my experience, ODBC is such a mess that hooking up to an ODBC driver once turned out to be more difficult than just writing the code three times for three different databases.)

I am looking for a Odbc library for Fortran (gFortran/Win). There was one product available by the name f90SQL but its now discontinued. I don't want write my own API wrapper for Odbc that would take alot of time is there any opensource or even a product that would provide that service.
A quick google came up with several options:
ForDBC
flibs/odbc
windtracer ODBC Intercation
I don't know if any of these are suitable, but some are open source and you should be able to adapt to your needs.
I know I'm excavating an old question but it pops up in google search.
It is only flibs/odbc that is free software among those Oded mentioned. It lacks some nice features like column binding and it generally enforces its own API. I took an effort to generate Fortran 2003 C bindings directly from ODBC headers. fodbc is far from being complete. But simple example with sqlite3 works for me so far. It looks like tests with MS Access reading and MS Excel writing do well.

I've been looking into setting up and trying out Neo4j on Amazon EC2 however I seem to have hit a road block with finding documentation that I can use.
For example, this page mentions "Clustering, High Availability and Online Backup are add-on components that manage distribution and consistency over several live or offline node spaces." However, I haven't been able to find any more information on these add-ons.
http://wiki.neo4j.org/content/Neo4j_in_the_Cloud
This seemingly key wiki page describing how to set up Neo4j seems to be missing some very information.
http://wiki.neo4j.org/content/Neo4j_Setup_HowTo
Is anyone else using this and referencing better documentation, or am I completely missing something?
You can find some related info at this link, although the setup might depend a bit your requirements. The HA support is currently in beta, we will be able to let you test it as soon as Neo4j 1.0 is out of the door, which is before end of Jan 2010.

I wish to build a file sharing site and store the files in S3. I also wish to have different users upload their different files and be able to see them, have access to them (open, share etc.) and manage them (delete, edit etc.). I wish to set ownership for each file uploaded and access permissions for the users.
So I am thinking of using an open source CMS.
Is this a good approach? Is a CMS the right things to use here? Which is the best one to use with S3?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Max.
This idea is flying in the air. I suggest that you search Amazon Web Services solution catalog to see if somebody has created CMS bases on AWS already.
