Kafka for Condition Monitoring and Predictive Maintenance in Industrial IoT

Aggregated on: 2021-12-28 11:49:27

The manufacturing industry is moving away from just selling machinery, devices, and other hardware. Software and services increase revenue and margins. A former cost center becomes a profit center for innovation. Equipment-as-a-Service (EaaS) even outsources the maintenance to the vendor. This paradigm shift is only possible with reliable and scalable real-time data processing leveraging an event streaming platform such as Apache Kafka.  This post explores how the next generation of software for Condition Monitoring and Predictive Maintenance can help build new innovative products and improve the OEE for customers.

NullPointerException in Java: Causes and Ways to Avoid It

Aggregated on: 2021-12-28 02:34:27

NullPointerException: the Most Common Exception NullPointerException (NPE) is the most common exception in Java. The cause of this exception is known but looks like that in most cases developers prefer to ignore it and don't take any action. I personally expect that reasons for such behavior are the following:  Most of the developers don't see any problem here and recognize all NPE exceptions as the developer's fault.  Developers who are aware of this design problem don't know how to fix it.  In this article, I'll explain what is the root of this problem and provide ways to fix that problem.

Systematic and Chaotic Testing: A Way to Achieve Cloud Resilience

Aggregated on: 2021-12-27 16:34:26

In today’s digital technology era where downtime translates to shut down, it is imperative to build resilient cloud structures. For example, in the pandemic, IT maintenance teams can no longer be on-premises to reboot any server in the data center. This may lead to a big hindrance in accessing all the data or software, putting a halt on productivity, and creating overall business loss if the on-premises hardware is down. However, the solution here would be to transmit all your IT operations to cloud infrastructure that ensures security by rendering 24/7, round-the-clock tech support by remote members. Cloud essentially poses as a savior here. Recently, companies have been fully utilizing the cloud potency, and hence, observability and resilience of cloud operations become imperative as downtime now equates to disconnection and business loss.

Encrypt and Decrypt a CSV File Using Mule 4

Aggregated on: 2021-12-27 03:19:26

Introduction Data security is an important aspect of the digital world. It helps to prevent data breaches, reduces the risk of data exposure, secures sensitive data, and is highly recommended for the regulatory compliance process. Within any organization, data security's role is to ensure the safety and security of private and commercial/finance data while minimizing exposure risk. PGP (Pretty Good Privacy) is an encryption program that is used to encrypt and decrypt texts, files, e-mails, and directories. Many applications within an organization use CSV files to transfer huge data from one system to another. Securing this data while in transit is a key factor during data transmission. This blog will help you provide a step-by-step procedure to encrypt and decrypt a CSV file at source and destination. We will encrypt and decrypt the following contents of a CSV file. It is a best practice to have the contents of the file within quotes to avoid any misalignment of the data while reading.

Create an Azure Blob Storage Account and Upload a File

Aggregated on: 2021-12-27 02:49:26

Introduction Storage accounts are one of the fundamental pieces of cloud technology. They contain all of our Azure Storage data objects: blobs, files, queues, tables, and disks. Microsoft offers several options to store data on the cloud. Storage can be used for two purposes: One is to actually store files, just as we do on a hard disk. The other is to use it as the backend of a Virtual Machine. Many services within Azure need a storage account, sometimes for logging and sometimes as a fundamental piece of the technology. By default, Virtual Machines run on a managed storage account, which is an abstraction on top of a storage account. We cannot use it to create a Virtual Machine on top of an unmanaged account. In this article, we will look at how to create an Azure blob storage account and upload a file on the blob.

System on Modules (SOM) and Its End-to-End Verification Using Test Automation Framework

Aggregated on: 2021-12-25 15:34:25

SOM is an entire CPU architecture built in a small package, of size like a credit card. It is a board-level circuit that integrates a system function and provides core components of an embedded processing system - processor cores, communication interfaces, and memory blocks on a single module. Designing any product based on the SOM is a much faster process than designing the entire system from the ground up.  There are multiple System on Module manufacturers available in the market worldwide with an equal amount of open-source automated testing frameworks. If you plan to use System-on-Module (SOM) in your product, the first thing required is to identify the test automation framework from the ones available out in the market and check for a suitable module for your requirement.

How To Connect Stateful Workloads Across Kubernetes Clusters

Aggregated on: 2021-12-24 12:49:25

One of the biggest selling points of Apache Cassandra™ is its shared-nothing architecture, making it an ideal choice for deployments that span multiple physical data centers. So when our Cassandra as-a-service single-region offering reached maturity, we naturally started looking into offering it cross-region and cross-cloud. One of the biggest challenges in providing a solution that spans multiple regions and clouds is correctly configuring the network so that Cassandra nodes in different data centers can communicate with each other successfully, even as individual nodes are added, replaced, or removed.  From the start of the cloud journey at DataStax, we selected Kubernetes as our orchestration platform, so our search for a networking solution started there. While we’ve benefited immensely from the ecosystem and have our share of war stories, this time we chose to forge our own path, landing on ad-hoc overlay virtual application networks (how’s that for a buzzword soup?). In this post, we’ll go over how we arrived at our solution, its technical overview, and a hands-on example with the Cassandra operator.

Since the big bang in the data technology landscape happened a decade and a half ago, giving rise to technologies like Hadoop, which cater to the four ‘V’s. — volume, variety, velocity, and veracity there has been an uptick in the use of databases with specialized capabilities to cater to different types of data and usage patterns. You can now see companies using graph databases, time-series databases, document databases, and others for different customer and internal workloads. Apache Cassandra™ is a wide-column, NoSQL database that is ideal when used for append-only, write-intensive workloads that capture data from IoT sensors, GPS devices, transaction logs, any time-series applications, and more. A lot of these applications need to be coupled with visualization engines for creating reports and dashboards. As most of the visualization libraries are written in JavaScript, using Node.js to interact with the database and the visualization engine is a good idea.

The controllers used by robotics manufacturers rarely coincide with the software that makes CNC machines run, so a fully synchronized operation can be very difficult to achieve. The result is untapped potential in automated manufacturing, as robot-CNC machine interfaces work with less productivity than they could otherwise obtain.
