Azure Traffic Manager and Azure Front Door for a multi-region application

  When deciding between   Azure Traffic Manager   and   Azure Front Door   for a multi-region application, consider the following factors: Functionality and Purpose : Azure Traffic Manager  is a DNS-based global load balancer that routes incoming traffic to different endpoints based on routing methods (e.g., priority, weighted, geographic). Azure Front Door  is a layer-7 load balancer specifically designed for HTTP(S) content. It provides additional features like caching, traffic acceleration, SSL/TLS termination, and certificate management. Use Cases : Traffic Manager : Ideal for scenarios where you need DNS-based global load balancing across multiple regions. Works well for non-HTTP(S) applications (e.g., TCP, UDP). Front Door : Better suited for HTTP(S) content. Provides advanced features like caching, SSL offloading, and WAF (Web Application Firewall). Security and Compliance : Traffic Manager : Does not provide security features directly. Front Door : Integrates well with Azure We

Choosing the Right Communication Protocol for Streaming Services: gRPC vs. REST vs. OData

 Streaming services have become an integral part of our digital lives, providing on-demand access to movies, music, and other content. As a developer, selecting the right communication protocol for your streaming platform is crucial. In this article, we’ll explore three popular options: gRPC, REST, and OData, and discuss their strengths and weaknesses. 1. gRPC: Real-Time Streaming Powerhouse Overview Architecture:  gRPC is based on the Remote Procedure Call (RPC) model, allowing bidirectional communication between clients and servers. Streaming Support:  gRPC excels in real-time scenarios, supporting both unidirectional (server-to-client or client-to-server) and bidirectional streaming. Data Format:  It uses Protocol Buffers (Protobuf), a compact binary format that reduces payload size. Performance:  gRPC is generally faster than REST due to its efficient serialization and deserialization. Security:  Utilizes Transport Layer Security (TLS) for secure communication.

what is DAPPER ? how it works?

What is DAPPER?  Dapper is a simple and lightweight Object-Relational Mapping (ORM) library for .NET. It provides a way to interact with a database using SQL queries while mapping the results of those queries to .NET objects. Dapper is designed to be fast, efficient, and easy to use, making it a popular choice for developers who want more control over their SQL queries and database interactions compared to traditional ORMs. Here's how Dapper works: Query Mapping:  Dapper allows you to write raw SQL queries and map the results to .NET objects. You can use SQL queries to retrieve data from a database and instruct Dapper on how to map the returned columns to the properties of your .NET classes. This provides a high degree of control over the SQL code executed against the database. Parameterized Queries:  Dapper supports parameterized queries, which help protect your application against SQL injection. You can pass parameters to your SQL queries and Dapper will safely handle their value

HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol), how http works?

 How HTTP works? HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) is the foundation of data communication on the World Wide Web. It's a protocol that defines how information is exchanged between a client (typically a web browser) and a web server. Here's how HTTP works: Client-Server Model: HTTP follows a client-server model. The client (usually a web browser) sends requests to a web server, and the server processes these requests and sends responses back to the client. Request-Response Cycle: A typical HTTP interaction involves a request-response cycle. The client sends an HTTP request to the server, and the server responds with the requested data, which could be a web page, an image, a document, or other resources. HTTP Methods: HTTP defines several methods (also known as HTTP verbs) that describe the action to be performed on the server. The most commonly used methods are: GET : Retrieve data from the server. POST : Send data to the server, often used for submitting forms. PUT : Update an
