Building a Web Server with Node.js HTTP Module

The HTTP module is a core Node.js module for creating web servers. It allows you to transform a standard computer into a web server capable of serving resources, eliminating the need for external software like Apache or IIS. To begin using the HTTP module, import it into your project: const http = r...

Implementing HTTP and WebSocket Unified Port Handling with Spring Boot and Netty

Overview This article demonstrates how too implement a unified port handling system for both HTTP and WebSocket protocols using Spring Boot and Netty. The solution allows a single server to process both HTTP requests and WebSocket connections on the same port (e.g., 8080). Endpoint Examples: HTTP: h...

Analyzing the NGINX MP4 Streaming Module's Core Data Structures and File Delivery

Core Data Structure to MP4 Processing The ngx_http_mp4_file_t structure is central to the NGINX MP4 module's operation, managing file state, parsing buffers, and response assemb. typedef struct { ngx_file_t file; // MP4 file descriptor u_char *parse_buffer; // Buffer for MP4 atom parsing u_char *buf...

Dispatching HTTP POST Requests from Oracle with Triggers and Network ACLs

Row-level database activity can drive outbonud HTTP calls by wiring a trigger to invoke a PL/SQL procedure that performs the request via UTL_HTTP. Network access must be permitted using ACLs, and character-set handling needs attention to prevent data corruption. Trigger to invoke an HTTP request CRE...

HTTP File Upload Internals and Encodings Explained

HTTP uploads place data in the request body. How that body is encoded depends on the Content-Type chosen by the client (usually a browser). File inputs in forms are transmitted using multipart/form-data; simple text-only forms often use application/x-www-form-urlencoded. A request’s start-line and h...

Nginx HTTP Request Body Internals: Entry, Filters, and Event-Driven Reading

Nginx defers request-body I/O until phase handlers actually need it (most commonly in the CONTENT phase for proxy_pass and upstream modules). The core path involves two cooperating pieces: a reader that pulls bytes from the socket and a filter chain that moves buffered data to memory or a temporary...
