What is NGNIX?

  • NGNIX is a software which acts as a web server.
  • NGNIX can also be used as reverse proxy, load balancer, mail proxy and HTTP cache.
  • It is started out as web server designed for maximum performance and stability.



Why NGNIX is used? | What is the Problem Solved by NGNIX?
  • Let's say you have built an Web Application and been deployed in one for your machine and made running and served to your customers.
  • Assume currently the application which is severed to customers is running in port 4000.
  • After few days, you application got more traffic and seen huge spike in the visitors rate accessing your website. In this case you want to increase the No of Machine severing the application. For this purpose you are bringing another one machine and deploying and running your same application here and serving to customers to handle the increase in traffic, unfortunately in this new machine the port 4000 is already occupied by other application so you have deployed your application in port 5000.
  • So every time if the port number of your application changes for some reasons you cannot ask your customers to access this port if that one port is not working. That will bring an Bad Impression. Here comes the use of NGNIX.

 NGNIX can acts as a web server in central/middle man who will serve the things evenly with no changes needed from Customers side, if the port is changed for some reason.

Note: The Above said is only an Example to help you to understand NGNIX in cleaner way. 

NGNIX can solve more problems like this
  • It can be used for 
    • web serving
    • proxy server for emails (IAMP,POP3 and SMTP)
    • reverse proxying
    • caching
    • load balancer for HTTP, TCP, UDP Servers
    • media streaming, etc...

BIG DATA ANALYTICS

By
BIG DATA ANALYTICS Have you ever hit upon how Amazon and Flip kart could possible verdict what we want; how the Google auto completes our search; how the YouTube looks into videos we want to watch? When we open YouTube, we will be at sixes and sevens, when we find ads related to what we have searched earlier in the past days. This is where we find ourselves in the era of big data analytics. More than 3 trillion bytes of information are being generated everyday through our smart phones, tablets, GPS devices, etc.  Have we thought about what can be done with all these information? This is where the data analytics comes into play. Big data analytics is just the study of future build up to store data in order to extract the behaviour patterns. The entire social networking website gathers our data which are related to our interest which is usually done by using our past search or any other social information. Data analytics will lead to a walkover in near future.

Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) What is AWS EC2 ? Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud, EC2 is a web service from Amazon that provides resizable compute services in the cloud. What do you mean by resizable in AWS EC2 ? You can quickly scale up or scale down the number of server instance you are using based upon on your traffic.  What is called as Instance? An instance is a virtual server for running applications on Amazon’s EC2. Simply Virtual Machine is called as Instance(i.e)it holds the HDD, OS, RAM, Network Connection Whatever things that are need to run a system.  Note : Everything is Virtual You can’t able to see the HDD, RAM , or CPU. Only thing is you can able to configure it based on your need.    So here is the Definition….  Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) is a web service that provides secure, resizable compute capacity in the cloud. It is designed to make web-scale cloud computing easier for developers. Why Amazon EC2 ?   Pay-as-you

CLOUD COMPUTING SERVICES

By
Services provided by Cloud Computing   1. Software as a service :  It is process by which the software will be provided by the cloud server's. Instead of using the software in our local machine we can directly use the cloud services directly to get our work done.   Example : Google Slides, Google Docs, Google Sheets, Zoho Writer,....etc. 2. Platform as a service : It is process by which you can directly use platform like windows , linux , Mac, ....Which ever you need to done your work. Example : There are certain software which might be run only certain platform. Assume I have windows operating system but i am doing research in BIG DATA. There Linux Operation system might be handy for my research work. Where it is hard for me to put Operating System again and again to my local machine and taking backup data. So Cloud Computing Services Makes our work easier whatever platform we need it will provide us without any loss in data or hard backup pro
