Robo 3T (formerly Robomongo) is a popular desktop graphical user interface (GUI) for your MongoDB hosting deployments that allows you to interact with your data through visual indicators instead of a text-based interface. This open source tool has cross-platform support and actually embeds the mongo shell within its interface to provide both shell and GUI-based interaction.

Sorry, Stuff The Internet Says On Scalability has been called on the account of wind, rain, power outages and general mayhem. We're all safe, but it's hard to write a post using stone knives and bear skins. See you next week. Lots of rain fell over the last 48 hours, but how much? Here is a preliminary look.

I’ve written quite a bit of content around developing a GraphQL API with various programming technologies such as Node.js, Golang, and Java. Heck, I even wrote an eBook on the subject titled, Web Services for the JavaScript Developer. However, I haven’t really produced any content around interacting with those APIs using modern frameworks and client facing technologies, only cURL and Postman.

You may not think about it often, but the Internet uses a colossal amount of electricity. This electricity needs to be produced somewhere. In most countries, this means the burning of fossil fuels.

Parallel query execution is my favorite, non-existent , feature in MySQL. In all versions of MySQL – at least at the time of writing – when you run a single query it will run in one thread, effectively utilizing one CPU core only. Multiple queries run at the same time will be using different threads and will utilize more than one CPU core. On multi-core machines – which is the majority of the hardware nowadays – and in the cloud, we have multiple cores available for use.

The concept of responsive web design has been around for a while, but all of the kinks have yet to be ironed out. The exponential proliferation of connected devices with varying software and technical capabilities has made it more and more difficult to cater web content to every single user. Furthermore, trying to accommodate everyone often leads to cluttered markup that negatively impacts performance.

This past week I had the honor of attending the consumer electronics show (CES) in Las Vegas, Nevada. This had been a lifelong goal of mine to attend the event and get a firsthand look at all the latest and greatest technology releasing in 2019. While mostly unrelated to development and the material typically found on The Polyglot Developer , I wanted to give a summary of the event with some of the things I enjoyed and some of the things I didn’t about the event.

Support for a long awaited GNU C extension, asm goto , is in the midst of landing in Clang and LLVM. We want to make sure that we release a high quality implementation, so it’s important to test the new patches on real code and not just small test cases. When we hit compiler bugs in large source files, it can be tricky to find exactly what part of potentially large translation units are problematic.

When it comes to my name, there is often a lot of confusion. On social media sites such as Twitter , GitHub , and similar, I often go by nraboy which is the first character of my first name (Nic) followed by my last name (Raboy). When people see that, they often think of The National Rifle Association (NRA), which is obviously unrelated to what I’m trying to present myself as.

First of all, this post is not a recommendation but more like a “what if” story. What if we use ClickHouse (which is a columnar analytical database) as our main datastore? Well, typically, an analytical database is not a replacement for a transactional or key/value datastore. However, ClickHouse is super efficient for timeseries and provides “sharding” out of the box (scalability beyond one node).
