In this blog post I wanted to show how one can use C# or Python to view the serial numbers of a X509 certificate. The serial number can be used to identify the certificate that one plans to use in their C# application, lets say for mutual authentication to another service. Why use X509 Certificates […]

Was playing around with Azure functions and thought I would write a quick blog post on how to use Azure functions to read a text file and send an email out to me daily. Basically I went with a joke a day idea. So lets get started with writing some of the awesome code 🙂 […]
Redis Transactions Redis provides a way to do Transactions, but the transactions are somewhat different than what you know from a SQL Relational Database perspective. In SQL Relation Database world you can executed partially and then rolled back the entire transaction. While Redis uses the MULTI and EXEC commands where every command passed as part […]
Redis Pub Sub, somehow may sound weird that it provides such a functionality since when you think of Redis the first thing that comes to mind is of a cache key value store. But indeed Redis does allow us to use the messaging paradigm by using channels to publish messages and for subscribers to listen […]
Redis Sorted Sets are similar to Sets, with unique feature of values stored in Set called scores. The score is used in order to take the sorted set ordered, from the smallest to the greatest score. Just like in Sets, members are unique but scores can be repeated. Sorted Sets are ideal for storing index […]
Redis Sets Datatype are similar in C# world as HashSet, they are an unordered collection used for storing strings. One of the great benefit of Redis Sets is that the operation of add, remove, and testing for existence of items is of constant time of O(1) regardless of the number of items in the Set. […]
Redis List Datatype are similar in C# world as LinkeList e.g LinkedList. Just like in LinkedList in C#, Redis can store items at Head or Tail of a List. The nice thing about them is that the insertion speed is just O(1), but do note that if you have a large list, the reading speed […]
dotnet core with GenFu Couple of weeks ago I had to test out the performance of a third party product but in order to test we had to use a lot of logs that would feed into the system. The requirements was to pump out around 1000 logs per seconds and feed into the system. […]
Redis Hash Datatype are similar in C# world as Dictionary e.g Dictionary<string, string>. Just like in C# redis stores map of attributes using key value pair. One thing to note is in Redis a Hash both the field name and the value are strings. Therefore, a Hash Datatype is a mapping of a string to […]
Continuing on with our Redis for .NET Developer, the Redis String Datatype is also used to store integers, float and other utility commands to manipulate strings. Redis String Datatype using Integers In Redis float and integers are represented by string. Redis parses the string value as an integer and the neat thing about them is […]
