Guid.Comb

In ultimele zile am început sa lucrez cu Fluent NHibernate si am descoperit GuidComb. M-am documentat sa vad ce înseamna de fapt. Pe scurt:
One of the better alternatives that i kinda like is the guid.comb strategy. Using regular guids as a primary key value leads to fragmented indexes (due to the randomness of the guid’s value) which leads to bad performance. This is a problem that the guid.comb strategy can solve quite easily for you.
Nu are rost sa traduc și să explic din nou acelasi lucru. O să găsiți pe Google destule materiale. Partea interesanta este modul in care se generează aceste guiduri.
Din cei 32 de biti pe care un guid ii conține, 16 sunt generați in funcție de configurația hardware a mașinii( începînd cu Windows 2000, seria plăcii de rețea nu se mai folosește).
Iar următorii 16 sunt generați in forma următoare:
  • 0-9: se generează pe baza unui uniqueidentifier( depinde de framework);
  • 10-15: pe baza la Datetime;
Acesta este un algoritm de generate de Guid destul de simplu si care isi face treaba foarte bine cînd avem de lucru cu DB. Este foarte folositor mai ales cand trebe sa generam PK. Începînd de la Sql Server 2005 exista Sequential Guid care ii foarte asemănător.
In general se cîștiga un spor de performanta de 25%-30% pe tabele care conține PK ca și guid.In cazul in care tabela pe care lucrați nu are PK, sporul de performanta poate sa fie 0% sau chiar negativ in unele situații. Pentru mai multe informații despre sporul de performanta puteti sa gasiti aici.

PS: Cînd ne ajuta un Guid? Un exemplu este cînd se lucrează cu o aplicația și offline, caz in care la sincronizare nu mai este nevoie de regenerare de PK.

  1. Se pare ca pierderea de performanta e numai daca acel PK are un clustered index, altfel nu.

Windows Docker Containers can make WIN32 API calls, use COM and ASP.NET WebForms

After the last post , I received two interesting questions related to Docker and Windows. People were interested if we do Win32 API calls from a Docker container and if there is support for COM. WIN32 Support To test calls to WIN32 API, let’s try to populate SYSTEM_INFO class. [StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)] public struct SYSTEM_INFO { public uint dwOemId; public uint dwPageSize; public uint lpMinimumApplicationAddress; public uint lpMaximumApplicationAddress; public uint dwActiveProcessorMask; public uint dwNumberOfProcessors; public uint dwProcessorType; public uint dwAllocationGranularity; public uint dwProcessorLevel; public uint dwProcessorRevision; } ... [DllImport("kernel32")] static extern void GetSystemInfo(ref SYSTEM_INFO pSI); ... SYSTEM_INFO pSI = new SYSTEM_INFO(

Azure AD and AWS Cognito side-by-side

In the last few weeks, I was involved in multiple opportunities on Microsoft Azure and Amazon, where we had to analyse AWS Cognito, Azure AD and other solutions that are available on the market. I decided to consolidate in one post all features and differences that I identified for both of them that we should need to take into account. Take into account that Azure AD is an identity and access management services well integrated with Microsoft stack. In comparison, AWS Cognito is just a user sign-up, sign-in and access control and nothing more. The focus is not on the main features, is more on small things that can make a difference when you want to decide where we want to store and manage our users.  This information might be useful in the future when we need to decide where we want to keep and manage our users.  Feature Azure AD (B2C, B2C) AWS Cognito Access token lifetime Default 1h – the value is configurable 1h – cannot be modified

ADO.NET provider with invariant name 'System.Data.SqlClient' could not be loaded

Today blog post will be started with the following error when running DB tests on the CI machine: threw exception: System.InvalidOperationException: The Entity Framework provider type 'System.Data.Entity.SqlServer.SqlProviderServices, EntityFramework.SqlServer' registered in the application config file for the ADO.NET provider with invariant name 'System.Data.SqlClient' could not be loaded. Make sure that the assembly-qualified name is used and that the assembly is available to the running application. See http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=260882 for more information. at System.Data.Entity.Infrastructure.DependencyResolution.ProviderServicesFactory.GetInstance(String providerTypeName, String providerInvariantName) This error happened only on the Continuous Integration machine. On the devs machines, everything has fine. The classic problem – on my machine it’s working. The CI has the following configuration: TeamCity .NET 4.51 EF 6.0.2 VS2013 It see
