July 31, Amazon Web Services announced a great news in their Route 53 DNS.

What made Amazon?

Now to buy a domain name, you can directly from the AWS console. When you purchase new domains via Route 53, your domain will automatically be configured to work with the service, with private registration (private WHOIS) will be enabled by default. Also it becomes easier to manage your expenses because the expense for the purchased domains will be available along with other resources in your shared account (consolidated billing). Route 53 offers a choice of more than 150 top-level domains (TLDs), including the most popular .com .net .org, and .info and regional top-level domains, including .co.uk .de, .tv, and .com.au.

Automatically create Liquibase migrations for PostgreSQL

Изображение
Working with Liquibase always brings confidence in the fact that the database objects are in the same condition in which you want it. It is this confidence and makes system migrations so popular databases. Today I want to tell you how to make using liquibase a bit easier. If you write a migration by hand, and your target database is PostgreSQL, then read this article, I am sure, the time spent on reading the article will be repaid with interest. I hope you already know how to work with Liquibase, so only two words describe how the system works.

But when we started to deal with the automatic matching of contacts, it was fun. Compare head-on by name, last name and phone number was easy to do, easy, and worked through it quickly.

/ > the time Machine Internet Archive is the largest and well-known archive that preserves web pages since 1995. Besides him there are a dozen other services, which are also archived to the web: the indexes of search engines and industry-specific archives like Archive-It , UK Web Archive , Cite Web , ArchiefWeb , Diigo . Interesting to know how many web pages gets into these files, relative to the total number of documents in the Internet? It is known that the base of the Internet Archive for 2011 contains more than 2.7 billion URIs , many of them in multiple copies taken at different points in time. For example, the home page of Habra "photographed" already 518 times since July 3, 2006 . It is also known that the base reference Google five years ago overstepped the mark in trillion unique URLS , although many of the documents were duplicated. Google is not able to perform all URLS, so the company decided to count the number of documents in the Internet a
