Lets learn "How to free up hard drive space on your Windows 10 PC or Laptop"

-

 


In Windows 10, we can use the Store settings to get an overview on how space is being utilized on the main system drive and external hard drives. But more importantly, now you can see which folders are using the most space, which can help you to identify and make a decision on the files you can delete to free up some storage.
Here's how to find and delete temporary files:
  1. Use the Windows key + I keyboard shortcut to open the Settings app.
  2. Click on System.
  3. Click on Storage.
  4. Under Storage select the drive you want to analyze. (Note that the This PC drive is the main computer's hard drive where Windows 10 is installed.)
  5. On Storage usage, you can see that Windows 10 categorizes the content based on default folders (e.g., Documents, Pictures, Music, etc.), apps and games, and system files, and you can view the storage usage. Simply click on of the item's name to get more information.
  6. If you want to delete its content, click the view button to open the folder location, and delete the files you don't need.
  7. Go back to Storage usage and click on Temporary files. In this section, Windows 10 will list different kind of temporary files you may want to delete, including Temporary files, Downloads folder, Recycle bin, and more. Click on the button of the content you want to remove and follow the instructions to delete the files.
  8. Go back to Storage usage and now click Other. Windows 10 uses this section to list all the folder that couldn't be categorized. Identify which folders are using the most storage space and click on them to access the location.
  9. Select its content, right-click, and select Delete to remove the files and folders.

In this tutorial, we'll learn about the Kube-proxy in iptables mode. Basically, we'll see how Kube-proxy create iptables that help in load balancing and service discovery. If you are not familiar with Linux IPTables I would recommend to check out my tutorial on IPTables here  first and then come back to read this tutorial. Kube-proxy Kube-proxy when running in iptables mode basically watch kube-apiserver for new endpoints and create corresponding iptables rules and iptables are fully responsible for service discover and proper routing of traffic to corresponding pods. Kube-proxy needs to run on all k8s worker nodes. Below is a small video describing the working of kube-proxy in iptables mode.  src:  https://www.slideshare.net/CJCullen/kubernetes-networking-55835829 Now that we know what Kube-proxy is and how it Kube-proxy works, let deep dive into the types of iptables Kube-proxy adds to the firewall.

 In this tutorial, we'll learn about the factory design pattern as in what it is, in which use cases this is being used and how it works. If you've are not familiar with what are software design patterns and what are its different types check out this tutorial. Introduction A factory design pattern is a creational design pattern that is related to object creation. In this pattern, we'll have a method to create an object without exposing its creation logic to the client. If a class method is creating an object it has to be static.  The idea is to create a static method ( factory method ) which instantiates a class without exposing its logic to the client and the client can use that method every time it needs to create an object of the class. The reason why the factory pattern is useful is that as it does not expose the logic of object creation, so if logic is changed, the client code need not to be changed. Usecases The place where this pattern is mostly used is library cod
