I’m not a networking expert, so I might be off on some details, but here’s what I’ve noticed recently. I had to write some data scraping scripts and ran into an issue where I kept getting blocked due to sending too many requests. It’s tough to get a new IP, especially since IPv4 addresses are so limited. Then, I discovered that Cloudflare’s Warp service offers some VPN-like functionality. When I enable it, I get assigned a new IP address. The interesting thing is that Cloudflare typically gives me an IPv6 address every time I connect or reset. Since IPv6 has a vast address space, it’sRead More →

Today i tried to use to build an extension to manipulate the data that the client submit to the server. The plan was to modify some content before the form is sent to the server. Don’t ask me why. I do it to automate some tasks which can help the user to sending some data from some source. I can’t do this with curl because the destination server has some protection and it can only be done if the user use a true browser.After few hours, it turned out, we can’t do this. Chrome only allows us to modify the sent/received headers only. It doesn’tRead More →

Azure Monitor is a powerful tool for storing logs and metrics. By default, Azure automatically sends the metrics for all your resources (such as CPU usage, App Services, etc.) to Azure Monitor. This is one of the things I love most about working in the cloud—every service is built with monitoring in mind. It means you get immediate visibility into what’s happening with your resources, like CPU, memory, disk usage, and more. Azure also gives you the flexibility to send custom metrics to monitor your specific needs. Sounds great, right? So why not send all your metrics to Azure Monitor? The first thing that comesRead More →

Have you ever been asked to monitor PowerBI gateway status? They need to receive alert when the gateway is offline. Or it’s just simply a dashboard to show the gateway status with its data such as hostname, version? The most common approach will be writing some scripts, pulling the data to logs and ingest it into Splunk. Why not using Splunk? Splunk can’t not run curl command by default, but if you install the Webtools Addons then it will open a new world. Below is my query to get PowerBI gateway status directly from Splunk, then i ingest that result into Splunk index. In orderRead More →
