In this tutorial, you will learn how to audit Node.js modules and also detect vulnerabilities in modules using npm audit.
RabbitMQ is one of the most popular open-source message brokers available. Its ability to be deployed in various configurations and on various platforms makes it a widely used tool; it also supports all major messaging protocols, making it very versatile. Still, debugging issues with a tool like RabbitMQ can be challenging, especially when it’s deployed on a large cluster. RabbitMQ logs are one way to go, as they help you backtrack to an earlier point while debugging.
You will have seen the Nastel Messaging Middleware Performance Benchmark Report comparing the performance of the commonly used messaging middleware platforms – IBM MQ, RabbitMQ, Apache Kafka, ActiveMQ Classic, ActiveMQ Artemis, TIBCO EMS, and Apache Pulsar. Nastel produced this using its CyBench performance benchmarking technology. StreamNative has also produced its own benchmark report focused on comparing Apache Pulsar vs. Apache Kafka using the Linux Foundation Open Messaging benchmark.
In this guide, we’ll explore the basics of using Express.js middleware. We’ll create a simple Express API from scratch, then add the middleware to it and demonstrate how to use each tool.
