my_print_defaults — Display #MySQL Options from Option Files

my_print_defaults displays the options that are present in option groups of option files. The output indicates what options are used by programs that read the specified option groups.

The #mysql_config_editor utility enables you to store authentication credentials in an obfuscated login path file named .mylogin.cnf.

The file location is the %APPDATA%\MySQL directory on Windows and the current user's home directory on non-Windows systems.

Denormalization helps to avoid joins and improve query #performance.

An inverted index is a common secondary index design pattern with DynamoDB.

With an inverted index, you create a secondary index that is the inverse of the primary key for your table. The HASH key for your table becomes the RANGE key in your index, and the RANGE key for your table becomes the primary key for your index.

DynamoDB concepts

Table: A collection of DynamoDB data records. Item: A single data record in a DynamoDB table. It is comparable to a row in a relational database. Attribute: A single data element on an item. It is comparable to a column in a relational database. However, unlike columns in a relational database, attributes do not need to be specified at table creation, other than the primary key. Attributes can be simple types such as strings, integers, or Boolean, or they can be complex types such as lists or maps. Primary key: A primary key is a unique identifier for a single item in a DynamoDB table. The primary key name and type must be specified on table creation, and a primary key of the specified type must be included with each item written to a table. A simple primary key consists of a single attribute, and a composite primary key consists of two attributes: a partition key and a sort key. For example, you can create a simple primary key using “UserID” as an identifier, or create a composite pri...

When using #DynamoDB, it is important to consider your access patterns before you model your data.

When building an application, you should always take time to design the data models needed in your application logic. This data model design should consider data access needs that will be needed in your application, both for reading and writing data.

Using the Jar Command to Unzip Files

jar -xvf /path/to/zip/file/or/jar/file

With #DynamoDB, you can create database tables that can store and retrieve any amount of data and serve any level of request traffic.

You can scale up or scale down your tables' throughput capacity without downtime or performance degradation. You can use the AWS Management Console to monitor resource utilization and performance metrics.

Helidon is an extremely versatile Java library for accessing data in #microservices.

Linux Date format

Linux Date format is a sequence of characters which specifies how output will appear.  It comprises some combination of the following sequences: %% A literal percent sign (" % "). %a The abbreviated weekday name (e.g.,  Sun ). %A The full weekday name (e.g.,  Sunday ). %b The abbreviated month name (e.g.,  Jan ). %B Locale's full month name (e.g.,  January ). %c The date and time (e.g.,  Thu Mar 3 23:05:25 2005 ). %C The current century; like  %Y , except omit last two digits (e.g.,  20 ). %d Day of month (e.g.,  01 ). %D Date; same as  %m/%d/%y . %e Day of month, space padded; same as  %_d . %F Full date; same as  %Y-%m-%d . %g Last two digits of year of ISO week number (see  %G ). %G Year of ISO week number (see  %V ); normally useful only with  %V . %h Same as  %b . %H Hour ( 00 .. 23 ). %I Hour ( 01 .. 12 ). %j Day of year ( 001 .. 366 ). %k Hour, space padded (  0 .. 23 ); same as...

You specifically model your data in #DynamoDB so that entities you want to access together are located next to each other in a single table.

This approach replaces the need for joins in a typical relational database and keeps your application high-performing as you scale up.

#DynamoDB has two capacity modes: provisioned and on-demand.

In provisioned capacity mode, you specify exactly the amount of read and write throughput you want. You pay for this capacity whether you use it or not. In DynamoDB on-demand capacity mode, you can pay per request. The cost per request is slightly higher than if you were to use provisioned throughput fully, but you don’t have to spend time doing capacity planning or worrying about getting throttled. On-demand mode works great for spiky or unpredictable workloads.

A table in #DynamoDB can hold many different kinds of data items at one time.

The same attribute in different items can contain entirely different kinds of information.

Amazon #DynamoDB has a default quota of 20 global secondary indexes per table

Data modeling is the process of designing how an application stores data in a given #database.

Start the #SSH Agent on Linux

To start the SSH Agent in the background on Linux, run: eval "$(ssh-agent -s)" To start the SSH Agent automatically on login, add these lines to your ~/.bash_profile: if [ -z "$SSH_AUTH_SOCK" ]; then    # Check for a currently running instance of the agent    RUNNING_AGENT="`ps -ax | grep 'ssh-agent -s' | grep -v grep | wc -l | tr -d '[:space:]'`"    if [ "$RUNNING_AGENT" = "0" ]; then         # Launch a new instance of the agent         ssh-agent -s &> .ssh/ssh-agent    fi    eval `cat .ssh/ssh-agent` fi

Configure OpenSSH runs multiple SSH sessions over a single connection

If you are on macOS and Linux, enable the ControlMaster feature on your local machine so that OpenSSH runs multiple SSH sessions over a single connection. This will reduce how often you have to enter a password or token. To enable ControlMaster: Add an entry like this to your SSH config file: Host *     ControlMaster auto     ControlPath  ~/.ssh/%r@%h-%p     ControlPersist  600

#PowerShell is often more powerful than traditional Windows batch files

Batch files don't have access to the full range of .NET tools, making PowerShell often more powerful.

Run command automatically after login to Linux

You can put your command in  $HOME/.bash_profile . All commands there are run on login.

Run Command on Remote System

The syntax for running a remote command is fairly straightforward: ssh username@host 'command'

Set MAILTO Variable To Change Crontab Email

Specifying SSH port number on the command line

The -p <port> option can be used to specify the port number to connect to when using the ssh command on Linux.  The -P <port> (note: capital P) option can be used with SFTP and scp.  The SSH port number command line setting overrides any value configured in configuration files.

Add Additional sshd ports

Add more ports to sshd: Inside sshd_config: Port 22 Port 110 Port 443 Port 2222

Configuring a fail2ban jail

sudo vim /etc/fail2ban/jail.local [sshd] enabled = true port = 22,2222 filter = sshd logpath = /var/log/auth.log maxretry = 3

Avoid locking out when restarting sshd

Existing sessions will remain active, using the pre-restart config. All new sessions will use the new config. So before restarting sshd, open another session and keep it alive while restarting sshd service.

#SSH Config File Match Example

The Host directive can contain one pattern or a whitespace-separated list of patterns.  Each pattern can contain zero or more non-whitespace character or one of the following pattern specifiers: * - Matches zero or more characters. For example, Host * matches all hosts, while 192.168.8.* matches hosts in the 192.168.8.0/24 subnet. ? - Matches exactly one character. The pattern, Host 10.10.8.? matches all hosts in 10.10.8.[0-9] range. ! - When used at the start of a pattern, it negates the match. Host * !fm ProxyJump fm Host * # Does not use ProxyJump here Host * !fm means all hosts except fm

Fixed MongoClient is abstract; cannot be instantiated

You can instantiate a MongoClient object without any parameters to connect to a MongoDB instance running on localhost on port 27017: MongoClient mongoClient = MongoClients.create(); Or you can specify the ConnectionString: MongoClient mongoClient = MongoClients.create("mongodb://hostOne:27017,hostTwo:27018");

Do not use sequential primary keys (auto-increment) on MySQL

Sequential primary keys introduce locks.  Use client-generated keys, such as GUIDs. When you have master-master replication, auto-increment causes conflicts.
