Join me on my humble journey of socket discovery in Linux with the "My Socket Learning Adventure" series. Together, we'll explore the world of Unix sockets,
Uncover socket sharding in Linux using Go, enabling multiple sockets to bind to the same IP and port for enhanced load balancing. The article provides insights into setting the SO_REUSEPORT socket option, creating a ListenConfig instance in Go.
Delve into the workings of Unix domain sockets in Golang, contrasting them with network sockets. Explore their creation, efficient inter-process communication on the same machine, and practical code examples demonstrating a simple echo server setup.
Discover using Unix domain sockets in Kubernetes for inter-container communication within a pod, illustrated with Go applications. Gain insights into setup, benefits like faster communication, and testing the deployment.
Explore efficient large file transfers in Linux using Go, focusing on minimizing data copies and context switches via the sendfile syscall.
This article provides a comprehensive introduction to the fundamentals of socket programming using Rust and the nix crate. It starts with an overview of the OSI model and its practical application through the TCP/IP model, laying the groundwork for understanding network communication.
This article explores the concept of endianness in computer systems, focusing on how different byte orders (little-endian and big-endian) affect data interpretation in network communication. Through practical examples using Rust, we demonstrate the importance of handling endianness correctly when sending and receiving data between clients and servers.
In this article, we delve into the mechanics of TCP connection management, focusing on the SYN queue and the accept queue. We explore backlog configurations, system parameters like net.core.somaxconn and net.ipv4.tcp_abort_on_overflow, and how they affect queue behavior.
