Better quality: https://www.flickr.com/photos/aaron_kreis/13591624245/ Better quality: https://www.flickr.com/photos/aaron_kreis/35959541982/ To create razor-sharp long-exposure shots, you must know some basic concepts in photography and set or configure your camera accordingly. I’ll first explain the terms very superficially and later discuss the interaction of these terms, e.g., what influence the ISO value has on the exposure time, etc. Anyone who wants to create images like those shown above should know the following basic concepts and their dependencies on each other. ...

MongoDB (derived from the English humongous, „gigantic“) is a document-oriented NoSQL database written in the C++ programming language. Because the database is document-oriented, it can manage collections of JSON-like documents. This allows many applications to model data in a more natural way, since the data can be nested in complex hierarchies while still remaining queryable and indexable. [Wikipedia] The MongoDB server can be started with the following command. However, the following folder must first be created: C:\data\db. This is where the database data is stored. mongod ...

The first image shows how a user, with their device via a mobile application, e.g. an email program from an unknown company, wants to query emails (Resources) from, for example, a Google Server (Resource Server). For this purpose, the user must enter their Google credentials within the mobile application. However, this is associated with certain risks, since a) the email program can store the password and b) the application can use the password to, for example, access other Google services. ...

Download JMeter Start JMeter: C:\apache-jmeter-5.1.1\bin\ApacheJMeter.jar HTTP(S) Test Script Recorder To test a website’s performance with JMeter, we first need to record the workflow (request/response). Recording the workflow over an HTTPS connection is done as follows: JMeter provides a proxy server that listens on port 8888 by default. Since we are not interested in images, CSS files, etc., we exclude these: Since JMeter listens on port 8888, we need to forward internet traffic to the local proxy server: ...

The following example shows the creation of a simple Alexa application (Skill) using the ‘Alexa Developer Console’ and ‘AWS Lambda’. Alexa Developer Console The ‘Alexa Developer Console’ helps us create the so-called ‘Interaction Model’. This model is used to describe the desired application and define the sentences and parameters to which Alexa should later respond. The programming of the logic is NOT done in the Developer Console but in AWS Lambda. ...

Objective Setting up the Node-RED editor within IBM Cloud Sending messages via MQTT to a Node-RED MQTT node You can request access to IBM Cloud at the following URL: IBM Cloud Afterwards you can create a new ‘Resource’ here. Within the catalog, various cloud resources (applications) are made available to us. We select Node-RED. This application provides us with the Node-RED editor within IBM Cloud. After entering the initial data, we have to wait a brief moment until the application is installed with the desired settings in the cloud and made available to us. ...

MQTT Summary [Source: Wikipedia] MQTT (Message Queuing Telemetry Transport) is an open messaging protocol for machine-to-machine communication (M2M) that enables the transmission of telemetry data in the form of messages between devices, e.g. sensors. The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) reserves ports 1883 and 8883 for MQTT. MQTT messages can be encrypted using the TLS protocol. The MQTT specification distinguishes between TCP/IP-based and non-TCP/IP networks. MQTT is a client-server protocol. Clients send messages with a topic to the server (“broker”) after establishing a connection; the topic hierarchically classifies the message, for example Kitchen/Fridge/Temperature or Car/Wheel/3/AirPressure. Clients can subscribe to these topics, and the server forwards received messages to the respective subscribers. ...

Under the brand name IO-Link there is a communication system for the connection of intelligent sensors and actuators to an automation system standardized in IEC 61131-9 under the designation Single-drop digital communication interface for small sensors and actuators (SDCI). The standardization covers both the electrical connection data and a digital communication protocol through which the sensors and actuators exchange data with the automation system. An IO-Link system consists of an IO-Link master and one or more IO-Link devices, i.e. sensors or actuators. The IO-Link master provides the interface to the higher-level controller (PLC) and controls communication with the connected IO-Link devices. ...

The Modbus protocol is a communication protocol based on a master/slave or client/server architecture. It was introduced in 1979 by Gould-Modicon for communication with its programmable logic controllers. In industry, Modbus has become a de facto standard as it is an open protocol. Since 2007, the Modbus TCP version has been part of the IEC 61158 standard. [Wikipedia] As the following diagram shows, Modbus allows communication over different networks: ...

Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP) CoAP is an Internet application protocol specified in RFC 7252. The protocol is used for communication of devices ’nodes’, e.g. embedded devices, that consume very little energy (low-power) and operate in networks with increased data loss (lossy networks), for instance IPv6 over Low-Power Wireless Personal Area Networks (6LoWPANs). CoAP can also be used within Internet-based networks for mobile communication via SMS. CoAP is primarily used in the context of the Internet of Things (IoT) and Machine-to-Machine (M2M), as device data/sensor data of small size is usually transmitted. Since this type of data is transmitted at regular intervals (cycles), individual (lost) data packets have no significant impact on the processing systems or applications, such as an IoT platform that processes and/or graphically displays the corresponding sensor data (temperature, rotation speed, etc.). ...

Wireshark is a free program for analyzing and graphically presenting data protocols (sniffer). Such data protocols are used by computers on various communication media such as the local network or USB. Capturing the communication can be useful for troubleshooting or evaluating the content of the communication. Wireshark displays both the protocol headers and the transported content during a capture. The program relies on the output of small helper programs like pcap or usbpcap for the graphical presentation, in order to capture the communication content on the respective transmission medium. [wikipedia] ...

MQTT (Message Queue Telemetry Transport) is an open messaging protocol for machine-to-machine communication (M2M) that enables the transmission of telemetry data in the form of messages between devices, despite high latency or constrained networks. Corresponding devices range from sensors and actuators, mobile phones, embedded systems in vehicles or laptops to fully developed computers. [Wikipedia] The information about the specification listed below comes, among other sources, from the current MQTT specification of IBM. ...

What is Spring? The Spring Framework (short Spring) is an open source framework for the Java platform. The goal of the Spring Framework is to simplify development with Java/Java EE and promote good programming practices. Spring provides a holistic solution for building applications and their business logic with a wide range of functionality; decoupling of application components is the focus. [wikipedia] The main projects of Spring include: Spring Boot Spring Framework Spring Cloud Date Flow Spring Cloud Spring Data Spring Integration Spring Batch Spring Security Spring HATEOAS spring REST Docs Spring AMQP Spring Mobile Spring for Android Spring Web Flow Spring Web Services Spring LDAP Spring Session Spring Shell Spring Flo Spring Kafka Spring Statemachine Sprin IO Platform In addition Spring includes the two community projects: ...
