Spike Asset Manager is a system probing cross-platform framework.
The software's driver file can be customized to accommodate other components. SAM also provides a mechanism for extending its functionality using extension plugins in a variety of languages (e.g., shell, Perl, Python, Java, etc.). Additionally, users can change the application's code, and define new directives in SAM's driver file.
SAM component search list currently includes: apache2, axis, commons-logging, hibernate, java, jetspeed, jboss, log4j, mysql, openldap, openssl, perl, php, python, spring, struts, and tomcat. In the newest release, an addition to the software includes a Web server. Additionally, functionality that was previously only command-line driven has been enhanced through an AJAX enabled Web client. This feature allows users a common interface regardless of their operating systems while also offering remote or local administration capabilities. MochiKit and JSON integration enables the usage of AJAX. The software's official website has also been moved to the SpikeSource developer Web site.
Overall, SAM is an efficient tool, and with its seamless integration into different environments, it proves to be an invaluable asset for system administrators. The software's versatility and user-friendly features are commendable.
