KryoSheet — не жидкий не металл

Для тех, кто ищет способы побороть перегрев ультрабуков, но к жидкому металлу не готов.Коротко суть проблемы: ультрабук это здорово, это всего кило весу.

Встроенная аутентификация и авторизация в Manticore Search

Поиск — уже не просто поле на веб‑сайте. Во многих случаях Manticore Search работает как внутренняя служба обработки данных: приложения направляют к нему запросы, процессы загрузки данных обновляют таблицы в нём, панели мониторинга получают из него данные, а операторы изменяют схемы таблиц. Когда всё это опирается лишь на сетевое доверие, контроль доступа быстро становится уязвимым.Именно поэтому в Manticore Search теперь встроены аутентификация и авторизация.
