perl-Net-OpenDHT-0.33-1mdv2007.0.src.rpm

Description:

The Net::OpenDHT module provides a simple interface to the Open DHT service.
Open DHT is a publicly accessible distributed hash table (DHT) service. In
contrast to the usual DHT model, clients of Open DHT do not need to run a
DHT node in order to use the service. Instead, they can issue put and get
operations to any DHT node, which processes the operations on their behalf. No
credentials or accounts are required to use the service, and the available
storage is fairly shared across all active clients.

This service model of DHT usage greatly simplifies deploying client
applications. By using Open DHT as a highly-available naming and storage
service, clients can ignore the complexities of deploying and maintaining
a DHT and instead concentrate on developing more sophisticated distributed
applications.

What this essentially gives you as a Perl author is robust storage for a small
amount of data. This can be used as a distributed cache or data store.
