Fjord is an open-source platform that deploys a real-time API Proxy for Kafka.

• Organizations can use Fjord to expose any Kafka topic to client-side streaming, whether via a browser or mobile device.
• Through Fjord’s CLI, developers can easily deploy all the components you need to Amazon Web Services (AWS) to handle the streaming infrastructure.
• Components include: Docker, AWS CDK, AWS ECS + Fargate, Server-sent events (SSE), Kafkajs, Express.js, Redis Server, AWS Application Load Balancer, NAT Gateways.

The JavaScript engine is only one of several tools browsers use to deliver a user interface that is both dynamic and able to asynchronously interact with multiple databases and events. Other main components include WebAPIs (including the DOM), two queues, and the Event Loop.

In Part II, we learned how an HTTP request travels across the Internet to the correct destination server, through several layers, and returns with a response. But how does this happen reliably and securely, without becoming corrupted or being intercepted by a malicious hacker?

What exactly happens when you enter a URL in your browser? How does your browser know what content to display? To answer this question, we need to understand how the various layers of the Internet work.

ISPs, routers, gateways, LANs, HTTP, the cloud, the web… the Internet is so complex that we could spend days, months, and even years studying this stuff, and we still wouldn’t be done.

Did you know that Ruby was good for the environment? It is, because it follows strict EPA principles… Encapsulation, Polymorphism, and Abstraction. [Ducks a volley of Tomato objects thrown at him].
