Java Sockets are a powerful tool for creating network-based applications in the Java programming language. They allow for communication between different computers and devices, making it possible to create client-server applications, peer-to-peer networks, and other types of network-based systems. However, like any programming tool, Java Sockets have both advantages and disadvantages that need to be considered when designing and implementing network-based systems. Advantages of Java Sockets Platform Independence One of the biggest advantages of Java Sockets is that they are platform-independent. This means that the same Java code can be run on multiple operating systems and devices without the need ... Read More
Introduction The Docker daemon is a background process that manages Docker containers and is responsible for the creation, execution, and deletion of containers. One key component of the Docker daemon is the Docker daemon socket, which is used to communicate with the daemon from the Docker CLI and other applications. It is important to secure the Docker daemon socket to prevent unauthorized access to the Docker daemon and to protect sensitive information that may be exposed through the socket. In this article, we will discuss the location and default permissions of the Docker daemon socket, potential security risks, and best ... Read More
Introduction Splash is a powerful tool for rendering JavaScript-based websites, making it an essential tool for web scraping and data extraction. In this tutorial, we will show you how to run Splash using Docker Toolbox, an older version of Docker that is no longer being maintained but is still available for download. Prerequisites Before you can get started, you will need to install Docker Toolbox on your machine. Docker Toolbox is a version of Docker that is designed to run on older systems and/or systems without native virtualization. It is available for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Follow the steps ...

Introduction Embedded Docker resource files are files included in a Docker image rather than stored on the host file system or an external network location. These files can be useful for including configuration files, scripts, or other resources that are needed by the applications or processes running in the Docker container. You can reference embedded Docker resource files in several different ways, including using file path URLs. This article explains what file path URLs are and how to use them to reference embedded Docker resource files. We will also provide tips and examples to help you use file path URLs ... Read More
Introduction In a Docker Tomcat 8 container, you may want to change the user configuration to add or modify users and roles. This modification can be useful for tasks like securing access to the Tomcat 8 instance or setting up different levels of permissions for different users. This article explains how to change the user configuration in a Docker Tomcat 8 container. We cover the steps involved in modifying the tomcat-users.xml file, building a new Docker image with the modified configuration, and running a Docker container from the new image. Prerequisites Before changing the user configuration in a Docker Tomcat ... Read More
JMX and its use in Java applications JMX (Java Management Extensions) is a Java technology that provides a way to manage and monitor Java applications. It exposes a set of APIs and MBeans (Java objects that represent resources to be managed) that can be used to monitor and control the behaviour of a Java application. JMX is commonly used in Java-based applications to monitor performance metrics such as memory usage, CPU utilization, and thread counts, as well as to manage and configure the application at runtime. Accessing JMX from outside a Docker container When running a Java application in a ... Read More
Overview If you are using Docker Compose to define and run multi-container Docker applications, you may want to specify custom configuration files or directories for your application. Fortunately, Docker Compose provides the --config option, which allows you to do just that. The --config option is used to specify a single configuration file or a directory containing multiple configuration files for Docker Compose. To use it, you can pass it as an argument to the docker-compose command. For example − $ docker-compose --config /path/to/custom/config.yml up This command would tell Docker Compose to use the configuration file located at /path/to/custom/config.yml ... Read More
Introduction Vagrant is a tool for building and managing development environments using virtualization software such as VirtualBox. It allows you to define and configure a development environment in a Vagrantfile and then spin up and tear down virtual machines quickly and easily. By using Docker and Vagrant together, you can create a flexible and reproducible development environment that is easy to set up and maintain. This article discusses the best way to install Docker on Vagrant, including the prerequisites, installation steps, and verification. Prerequisites for installing Docker on Vagrant Before installing Docker on Vagrant, you must ensure you have the ... Read More
Introduction In the world of networking, an IP address is a unique numerical label assigned to each device connected to a computer network that uses the Internet Protocol for communication. The two types of IP addresses are shared and dedicated. In this article, we will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of dedicated IP addresses. Advantages of Dedicated IP Addresses Increased Security One of the main advantages of using a dedicated IP address is increased security. When an IP address is dedicated to a specific device or website, it makes it much harder for hackers to gain access to it. This ... Read More
Energy storage systems (ESS) have become increasingly popular in recent years as a way to store and manage energy for both residential and commercial use. ESS can be used to store energy from renewable sources such as solar and wind, as well as from traditional sources such as fossil fuels. In this article, we will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of ESS, as well as provide examples of how they are currently being used. Advantages of ESS Reliability and Stability One of the biggest advantages of ESS is its ability to provide reliability and stability to the power grid. ESS ... Read More
