Hybrid cloud refers to a computing environment that combines elements of both private and public cloud infrastructures. In a hybrid cloud setup, organizations can orchestrate workloads between on-premises infrastructure (private cloud) and cloud-based services provided by public cloud providers. This approach allows businesses to leverage the scalability and flexibility of public clouds for certain tasks … Read more
IDS (Intrusion Detection System) software refers to a cybersecurity tool designed to monitor network traffic or system activities for suspicious patterns or anomalies that may indicate unauthorized access, misuse, or security breaches. IDS software analyzes network packets, logs, or system events in real-time to detect potential threats, such as unauthorized access attempts, malware infections, denial-of-service … Read more
The purpose of a proxy, in computing and networking, is to act as an intermediary between a client and a server. It facilitates indirect connections between devices or applications across different networks by intercepting and forwarding requests. Proxies can enhance security, privacy, and performance by caching frequently accessed content, filtering malicious traffic, or masking the … Read more
A web proxy is used primarily to enhance privacy, security, and access control when browsing the internet. It acts as an intermediary between a user’s device and the websites they visit, intercepting and forwarding web requests. Web proxies can mask the user’s IP address, making their online activities more anonymous. They also cache web content, … Read more
A peer-to-peer (P2P) network is a decentralized communication model where participants, called peers, share resources directly with each other without the need for a centralized server. In a P2P network, each peer acts both as a client and a server, capable of initiating connections to other peers to share files, services, or other resources. This … Read more
The four types of cloud storage are: Public Cloud Storage: Managed by cloud service providers and accessible over the internet to the general public or multiple organizations. Examples include Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage. Private Cloud Storage: Operated solely for a single organization, either managed internally or by a third-party vendor. It offers more control … Read more
Cloud storage refers to storing data on remote servers accessed through the internet rather than on local storage devices. It allows users to upload, store, and manage data securely while enabling convenient access from anywhere with an internet connection. Cloud storage providers manage the infrastructure and ensure data availability, scalability, and redundancy. To use cloud … Read more
Cloud architecture refers to the design and structure of cloud computing environments, encompassing various components and technologies that enable the delivery of cloud services. It typically involves multiple layers and components, each serving specific functions to ensure scalability, flexibility, and reliability of cloud-based applications and services. Key components include virtualization, networking, storage, management tools, and … Read more
WebSockets and HTTP are both protocols used for communication over the internet, but they serve different purposes and have distinct characteristics. HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) is a stateless protocol primarily used for request-response communication between clients (such as web browsers) and servers. It operates on a request-response model where clients initiate requests to servers, which … Read more
Service mesh is used to manage communication between microservices within a distributed application. It acts as a dedicated infrastructure layer that handles service-to-service communication, providing capabilities like service discovery, load balancing, traffic management, security policies, and observability. By abstracting network complexity away from application code, service mesh simplifies service communication, enhances reliability, and enables advanced … Read more
