NGINX WAF alternatives: App Protect vs. ModSecurity vs. open-appsec
Written by: Rubaiat Hossain

Nginx is a popular web server software that can also be used for caching, load balancing, and reverse proxying. Its asynchronous, event-driven architecture makes Nginx a good choice for high-traffic systems, which is the reason a lot of DevOps engineers and web developers choose to use it. However, having a high-performance web server is only helpful when you protect your web app accordingly.

This is where web application firewalls (WAFs) come into play. WAFs sit be…

1. Dockerizing NodeJS, Express, and MongoDB App with NGINX as a Reverse Proxy
🙂 As a beginner developer or while learning Backend development, The most common start point of most developers is building the APIs and connecting the Database with it.

Like If we talk about MERN stack, we can build cool Web-apps using NodeJS and MongoDB as backend frameworks and database respectively. We can even build complex websites like E-Commerce.

🎯 But when it comes to the scalability, we often skip this and we do deploy straightway. Today we will talk about

How to Dockerize your Node…

2. Creating a Service Monitor in k8s
Prometheus is an excellent monitoring tool developed for Kubernetes monitoring.
Many of the helm charts like Nginx, RabbitMq provides inbuilt provision for metrics exposing for Prometheus monitoring.
These metrics are generally exposed on an endpoint, say, /metrics and prometheus pulls down, process them on certain interval.

But the question arrises how does Prometheus knows from where to scrap metrics?
The answer to this is via Service Monitor.

3. react useRef() hook (web dev simplified)
useRef Hook() :-

ref does not cause your component to re update when it gets changed.

part1 Source Code:-

import { useState, useEffect, useRef } from 'react'

export default function App() {

const [name, setName] = useState("");
// const [renderCount, setRenderCount] = useState(-2);
// useEffect(() => {
// console.log("inside useEffect");
// setRenderCount(prevRenderCount => prevRenderCount + 1);
// }, [name])

const renderCount = useRef(0);

useEffect(() => {
console.log("inside us…

1. ReductStore behind NGINX
I think, NGINX doesn't need any introductions. It is one of the most widely used HTTP servers and reverse proxies.
You can route your microservices or monolith application through it and make it responsible for:

TSL encryption
Basic HTTP authorization
Map public URL to services or applications
Load balancing

This is a typical use case for NGINX:

Although, ReductStore supports TSL encryption and token authentication, there are a few cases where NGINX could
be useful:

2. Creating Custom Hooks in React and TypeScript
React is a popular JavaScript library for building user interfaces, and TypeScript is a popular superset of JavaScript that adds optional static typing and other features. Together, React and TypeScript can provide a powerful toolset for building scalable and maintainable web applications.

One of the key features of React is its ability to reuse code through the use of custom hooks. Custom hooks are functions that allow you to extract component logic into reusable functions. They are a powerful…

3. What is Asynchronous JavaScript?
One word every JavaScript developer finds it common in most tutorials or documentation is 'asynchronous'.
The asynchronous concept of JavaScript becomes a bit confusing if you are a beginner. In this article, I will be showing you that the concept is not difficult as it sounds.

Yes! I will discuss with you callback, promises, await and other terms related to Asynchronous JavaScript.

Synchronous vs Asynchronous

JavaScript is synchronous by default and is single threaded
This means that code c…
