Published: May 11, 2024 Reading Time: 4 min

We already talked about Why using Micro Frontend and How to use it. But now let’s explorer a working example to understand it better. Building a Micro Frontend Architecture with Qwik, Angular, and React Micro frontend architecture is gaining popularity as a way to develop scalable and modular web applications. By breaking down a monolithic frontend into smaller, independently deployable modules, teams can work more efficiently and scale their applications with ease. In this tutorial, we’ll explore how to build a micro frontend architecture using Qwik as the shell application and integrating Angular and React components as micro frontends. We’ll also utilize Redux for communication between the micro frontends. ...

Micro Frontends: Why?

Published: May 9, 2024 Reading Time: 5 min

Micro frontends is an architectural pattern for building web applications as a composition of loosely coupled, independently deployable frontend modules. It extends the principles of microservices to the frontend, allowing teams to develop, deploy, and scale parts of the user interface independently. In essence, micro frontends break down a large, monolithic frontend application into smaller, more manageable pieces, each with its own technology stack, development team, and deployment pipeline. Key characteristics of micro frontends Modularity: Micro frontends promote modularity by dividing the user interface into smaller, self-contained units called micro frontends. Each micro frontend represents a cohesive set of features or functionality, allowing teams to focus on developing and maintaining specific parts of the application. ...

How to Upgrade Ubuntu

Published: December 30, 2022 Reading Time: 1 min

Update Release Name in Sources To start upgrading you need to change the /etc/apt/sources.list file and replace the name of your previous release with new one. So, for example if you are 20.04, replace every instance of focal with kinetic. If you currently have 22.04, replace jammy with kinetic. This process can be automated by using the following sed command: 1 sudo sed -i 's/jammy/kinetic/g' /etc/apt/sources.list Then, look in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/. Change any files in there the same way. ...

How to Upgrade Ubuntu Kernel

Published: December 30, 2022 Reading Time: 2 min

Ubuntu by default uses LTS Kernels: Canonical provides long-term support (LTS) kernels for Ubuntu LTS releases. Canonical also provides interim operating system releases with updated kernels every 6 months. For customers and business partners that don’t have specialised bleeding-edge workloads or latest hardware needs, the latest LTS release ”-generic” kernel is the best option for them such as the 4.15 default kernel in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. Customers who need the latest hardware support capability can install the latest HWE kernel such as the ones contained in interim releases, keeping in mind the shorter support lifespan associated with these kernels (9 months). HWE kernel customers are recommended to upgrade to a newer LTS release that supports their hardware and/or software needs as soon as it is available. Another option for customers is to use point releases. For example, there is an 18.04.4 point release as of February 2020, which includes an updated 5.3.x kernel but is also considered LTS, exactly like the original GA 4.15 kernel in 18.04. ...

Farewell Lastpass, We don't need more data breach

Published: December 29, 2022 Reading Time: 2 min

You’ve heard it again and again: You need to use a password manager to generate strong, unique passwords and keep track of them for you. And if you finally took the plunge with a free and mainstream option, particularly during the 2010s, it was probably LastPass. For the security service’s 25.6 million users, though, the company made a worrying announcement last week: A security incident the firm previously reported on November 30 was actually a massive and concerning data breach that exposed encrypted password vaults—the crown jewels of any password manager—along with other user data. ...

Cross-platform botnet targets SSH-enabled devices

Published: December 12, 2022 Reading Time: 1 min

Microsoft researchers found a cross-platform botnet that originates from malicious software downloads on Windows devices & succeeds in propagating to a variety of Linux-based devices by enumerating default credentials on internet-exposed SSH-enabled devices. Microsoft researchers observed that the initial infection points related to the botnet were devices infected through the installation of malicious cracking tools that purport to acquire illegal Windows licenses. The cracking tools contain additional code that downloads and launches a fake version of svchost.exe through a PowerShell command. In some cases, the downloaded file is named svchosts.exe. ...
