Server Side Technologies

-
Server side web technology is used to develop dynamic web resource programs that having the capability to generate dynamic web pages. Server side web technologies are two types.
  • Process based                
  • Thread based   

Process based Technologies are CGI and thread based technologies are Servlet, JSP, ASP.net.

A light weight sub process is called Thread. Operating system controls processes but threads can be controlled through java programming using JRE support.

Transferring control between two processes (or) between two threads is called as “Context switch” (or) “Control jumping” (or) “scheduling”. The scheduling on processes takes more time compare to the scheduling on threads.


Since processes based scheduling takes more time, the CGI web applications performance will be degraded when multiple requests are given simultaneously. This makes the CGI web applications as non-scaleable web applications (If application gives good performance respective of increase (or) decrease in request count then that application is called as “Scaleable applications”).

Understanding Servlet/JSP Environment



Since, scheduling on threads takes less time the above diagram based web application gives good performance in all situations. This makes web applications as “scaleable applications.” It is recommended to use thread based server side technologies in web application development for better performance.


Every servlet program is a “Single instance multiple threads component” that means when multiple requests are given to servlet program. The servlet container creates only one object for that servlet program class but multiple threads will be started on that object representing multiple requests

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 ...

IoT technology The Internet of Things (IoT) is a system of interrelated computing devices, mechanical and digital machines.  IoT is a network of sensors where data is exchanged, using different connectivity protocols, with systems. This set up can be leveraged to create a new business application or to enhance an existing process. The exchange of the data can be bi-directional between sensors and systems Examples of sensors can be temperature sensors, motion sensors, flow meters, heart meter monitors, biometric devices, smoke detectors, & etc Examples of connectivity can be wifi, radio, GPRS, GSM, LAN, WAN, & etc. Examples of systems can be a remote health monitoring applications, SCADA applications, etc Look at next slide about the complete flow of IoT process Examples A doctor in US would like to monitor the heart rate and ECG of a patient in Hyderabad. This is done with the patient having sensors attached to him that collect the ECG data and the hea...

What is reverse proxy?

  What is a reverse proxy? A reverse proxy is a server that sits in front of web servers and forwards client (e.g. web browser) requests to those web servers. Reverse proxies are typically implemented to help increase  security ,  performance , and reliability . In order to better understand how a reverse proxy works and the benefits it can provide, let’s first define what a proxy server is. What’s a proxy server? A forward proxy, often called a proxy, proxy server, or web proxy, is a server that sits in front of a group of client machines. When those computers make requests to sites and services on the Internet, the proxy server intercepts those requests and then communicates with web servers on behalf of those clients, like a middleman. For example, let’s name 3 computers involved in a typical forward proxy communication: A: This is a user’s home computer B: This is a forward proxy server C: This is a website’s origin server (where the website data is stored) In a stand...
