Extract Translate Load

So, What it's like Extract Translate Load ?
  - ETL was a solution to get analytics at scale. Once we have huge data at scale of hundreds of tera bytes or even at peta scale, we may need a HPC to ask questions on such data. Using commodity compute horizontally would be cost effective in most of the businesss cases. Initially Hadoop had its helping hand in the process, however when Spark could do it efficiently the world said "Why not?".
For us to get analytics on huge data largely unstructred and from hetrogenous sources, like every other engineering problem we divided the problem so we can conquer it with ease. We made a layer to Extract, this layer would just abstract us different data sources and get us the data. Traslate layer would structure the data for us so that our logical questions would fit into the arena.Load come in where we need to distribute the compute task at hand to large commodity clusters. Here's where big data framework would be a friend at help.

Event Sourcing with CQRS.

  The way event sourcing works with CQRS is to have  part of the application that models updates as writes to an event log or Kafka topic . This is paired with an event handler that subscribes to the Kafka topic, transforms the event (as required) and writes the materialized view to a read store.

Create One-Click Shutdown and Reboot Shortcuts

First, create a shortcut on your desktop by right-clicking on the desktop, choosing New, and then choosing Shortcut. The Create Shortcut Wizard appears. In the box asking for the location of the shortcut, type shutdown. After you create the shortcut, double-clicking on it will shut down your PC. But you can do much more with a shutdown shortcut than merely shut down your PC. You can add any combination of several switches to do extra duty, like this: shutdown -r -t 01 -c "Rebooting your PC" Double-clicking on that shortcut will reboot your PC after a one-second delay and display the message "Rebooting your PC." The shutdown command includes a variety of switches you can use to customize it. Table 1-3 lists all of them and describes their use. I use this technique to create two shutdown shortcuts on my desktop—one for turning off my PC, and one for rebooting. Here are the ones I use: shutdown -s -t 03 -c "Bye Bye m8!" shutdown -r -t 03 -c ...
