Learning Internet of Things

To be able to define IoT, let's first look at how the term was coined. Kevin Ashton noted that most data on the Internet was at the time originally entered or captured into the system by human beings. From a system point of view, a human is nothing more than a slow, error-prone, and inefficient router of data that puts limits on quality and quantity of data available and sometimes even dares to…

MEAN Web Development

Back in the spring of 1995, web browsers were very different from present day web browsers.

The World Wide Web began to show signs of popularity, and though some of the b…

Junos Security

Firewalls are a staple of almost every network in the world. The firewall protects nearly every network-based transaction that occurs, and even the end user understands its metaphoric name, meant to imply keeping out the bad stuff. But firewalls have had to change. Whether it’s the growth of networks or the growth of network usage, they have had to move beyond the simple devices that only req…

Junos Enterprise Routing

After you’ve spent some time in the networking field, you tend to notice that there is rarely a single way to do things, and in many cases, rarely a single, precise definition for terms. After all, often a network engineer’s best answer is “it depends.” Such is the case with enterprise routing, so let’s start off with a definition question: what is an enterprise network? Is it a large…

The enterprise begins when you carefully put the first two computers together, and complexity grows with every step thereafter.

A Brief History of Numbers

This book tells the story of the development of the idea of number since the days of the Pythagoreans and up until the turn of the twentieth century. The latter is more or less the time when currently prevailing conceptions about numbers reached their actual state, for all of their complexity (or perhaps we should rather say, for all of their simplicity). This is not the first book to tell a si…
