CDN Usage

-
A Content Delivery Network (or Content Distribution Network) is a system of strategically positioned servers around the globe. These servers maintain and accelerate your content. The main goals of a CDN are about speed, scalability and high-availability. A request from a user will always be routed to the nearest point of presence (POP). User’s distance to these servers has an impact on loading time. A closer and highly performing POP will significantly improve user experience as a result of reduced loading time, lower latency and minimized package loss. A Content Delivery Network will also cut the operational cost and makes it easy to scale seamlessly without extra effort. We supercharge your content delivery whether it’s a game, software or any other web data.

 A content delivery network (CDN) refers to a geographically distributed group of servers which work together to provide fast delivery of Internet content. A CDN allows for the quick transfer of assets needed for loading Internet content including HTML pages, javascript files, stylesheets, images, and videos.
How does CDN works?

 At its core, a CDN is a network of servers linked together with the goal of delivering content as quickly, cheaply, reliably, and securely as possible. In order to improve speed and connectivity, a CDN will place servers at the exchange points between different networks. These Internet exchange points (IXPs) are the primary locations where different Internet providers connect in order to provide each other access to traffic originating on their different networks.

 When it comes to websites loading content, users drop off quickly as a site slows down. CDN services can help to reduce load times in the following ways:

 The globally distributed nature of a CDN means reduce distance between users and website resources. Instead of having to connect to wherever a website’s origin server may live, a CDN lets users connect to a geographically closer data center. Less travel time means faster service.Hardware and software optimizations such as efficient load balancing and solid-state hard drives can help data reach the user faster.

 CDNs can reduce the amount of data that’s transferred by reducing file sizes using tactics such as minification and file compression. Smaller file sizes mean quicker load times.
CDNs can also speed up sites which use TLS/SSL certificates by optimizing connection reuse and enabling TLS false start

Email Sending through O365 using OAuth Protocol

-
  Microsoft Office365 EWS servers have been extended to support authorization via the industry-standard OAuth 2.0 protocol. Using OAUTH protocol, user can do authentication by Microsoft Web OAuth instead of inputting user and password directly in application Microsoft / Office 365 OAuth + EWS We can use the OAuth authentication service provided by Azure Active Directory to enable our application to connect with IMAP, POP or SMTP protocols to access Exchange Online in Office 365. To use OAuth with our application we need to register application on Azure Active directory and other steps also we need to do to get the access token back. Below are the steps   To use Microsoft/Office365 OAUTH in your application, you must create an application in  https://portal.azure.com . Sign into the Azure portal using either a work or school account or a personal Microsoft account. If your account gives you access to more than one tenant, select your account in the top right corn

IISRESET vs App Pool Recycling ?

-

 I think most IIS administrators know IISRESET command, and why they use it. One of possible reasons can be to restart IIS services to initialize web applications, or to apply some changes of applications & IIS settings .There’re just a few conditions those need your IISRESET command. In most situations, you don’t need this. I have a concern if you always run this command for applying any changes, or release system resource – memory – regularly, or frequently. Because it’s much more cost than what you really need to take – there’re side effects Recycling App Pool’ has been introduced from IIS6 in Windows2003. It’s designed to restart only application pools(=worker processes). It can be done in a command prompt(run ‘IISAPP /?’ in a command prompt for details), as well as in the IIS manager What IISRESET does? When you run IISRESET, many things will happen. In order to understand them, I think I need to show you how IIS looks like – about IIS core components. The below shows you role

Deploy .Net6.0 Web api with docker

  What is Docker? Docker is a containerization platform, meaning that it enables you to package your applications into images and run them as “containers” on any platform that can run Docker. It negates the classic: “It works on my computer” argument as Docker images contain everything needed for the app to run. Are Containers the same as Virtual Machines? They are similar, but not the same. In short: Virtual Machines provide OS Level Virtualization Containers provide App Level Virtualization This concept is depicted below: Why Would You Use it? In short you would use Docker, (and hence containers), for the following reasons: Portability.  As containers are self- contained  they can run on any platform that runs Docker, making them easy to stand up and run on a wide variety of platforms. Scalability.  With the use of additional “orchestration” you can spin up multiple container instances to support increased load. Performance.  Containers generally perform better than their VM counterp
