libjpeg-turbo is a JPEG image codec that uses SIMD instructions (MMX, SSE2, NEON, AltiVec) to accelerate baseline JPEG compression and decompression on x86, x86-64, ARM, and PowerPC systems. On such systems, libjpeg-turbo is generally 2-6x as fast as libjpeg, all else being equal. On other types of systems, libjpeg-turbo can still outperform libjpeg by a significant amount, by virtue of its highly-optimized Huffman coding routines. In many cases, the performance of libjpeg-turbo rivals that of proprietary high-speed JPEG codecs. libjpeg-turbo implements both the traditional libjpeg API as well as the less powerful but more straightforward TurboJPEG API. libjpeg-turbo also features colorspace extensions that allow it to compress from/decompress to 32-bit and big-endian pixel buffers (RGBX, XBGR, etc.), as well as a full-featured Java interface.

PlantUml allows to quickly create some UML diagram using a simple textual description language.

Zipkin is a distributed tracing system. It helps gather timing data needed to troubleshoot latency problems in service architectures. Features include both the collection and lookup of this data. If you have a trace ID in a log file, you can jump directly to it. Otherwise, you can query based on attributes such as service, operation name, tags and duration. Some interesting data will be summarized for you, such as the percentage of time spent in a service, and whether or not operations failed. The Zipkin UI also presents a Dependency diagram showing how many traced requests went through each application. This can be helpful for identifying aggregate behavior including error paths or calls to deprecated services. Applications need to be “instrumented” to report trace data to Zipkin.

Early Access iText, a PDF generation library in Java

JChart2D is a easy to use component for displaying two- dimensional traces in a coordinate system written in Java. It supports real-time (animated) charting, custom trace rendering, Multithreading, viewports, automatic scaling and labels. Former UI controls (right click context menu, file menu) have been ported to the subproject jchart2d-uimenu (https://sourceforge.net/projects/jchart2d-uimenu.jchart2d.p/) for the benefit of having no dependencies to 3rd party libraries.

The Amazon MSK Library for AWS Identity and Access Management enables developers to use AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) to connect to their Amazon Managed Streaming for Apache Kafka (Amazon MSK) clusters. It allows JVM-based Apache Kafka clients to use AWS IAM for authentication and authorization against Amazon MSK clusters that have AWS IAM enabled as an authentication mechanism. This library provides a new Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL) mechanism called AWS_MSK_IAM. This new SASL mechanism can be used by Kafka clients to authenticate against Amazon MSK clusters using AWS IAM. After you've downloaded the code from GitHub, you can build it using Gradle. An uber jar containing the library and all its relocated dependencies except the kafka client and slf4j-api can also be built. At runtime, the uber jar expects to find the kafka client library and the sl4j-api library on the classpath.

The GUIDOLib provides a powerful engine for the graphic rendering of music scores, based on the Guido Music Notation format. It supports Linux, Mac OS X, Windows, Android and iOS operating systems. A Java JNI interface is available as well as a Javascript version of the library. A Web API has also been designed, allowing to deploy the engine as a Web service.
