Explore a comprehensive software engineering video series covering a wide range of topics. Dive into database management with Postgres and Docker, understand the intricacies of WebSockets, and build TCP and UDP servers using Node.js. Learn about IndexedDB, Layer 4 and Layer 7 load balancers, and GitHub's authorization REST API. Discover how to build an HTTP proxy, implement publish-subscribe patterns in Redis, and explore its networking transport protocol. Set up and use Redis and Kafka on Docker, and gain insights into HTTPS, RabbitMQ, and port forwarding. Examine HTTP 1.0's limitations, service mesh proxies, and HSTS. Explore hosting multiple websites on a single IP address, understand SameSite cookies and CSRF, and compare GraphQL with REST. Delve into database transactions, SNI limitations, RabbitMQ components, and NginX as a Layer 7 proxy. Study various security concepts, including denial of service attacks, HSTS implementation in browsers, and SSL stripping. Investigate HAProxy's TCP and HTTP proxying capabilities, row-level database locks, and the reasons behind browser connection limits. Finally, explore the motivations behind gRPC's development and its advantages and disadvantages in modern software engineering.
