    Julia has ccall keyword to call C (and other languages, e.g., Fortran); [15] while packages, providing similar no-boilerplate support, are available for some languages e.g., for Python [16] (to e.g. provide OO support and GC support), Java (and supports other JDK-languages, such as Scala) and R. Interactive use with C++ is also possible with ...

    When a node in a cluster fails, strategies such as "fencing" may be employed to keep the rest of the system operational. [25] [26] Fencing is the process of isolating a node or protecting shared resources when a node appears to be malfunctioning.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C10k_problem

    The name C10k is a numeronym for concurrently handling ten thousand connections. [2] Handling many concurrent connections is a different problem from handling many requests per second : the latter requires high throughput (processing them quickly), while the former does not have to be fast, but requires efficient scheduling of connections.
