Tech on Sinetris's viewpoints

Subject Matter Expert

Mon, 24 Nov 2025 07:28:53 GMT

A professional with in-depth, specialized knowledge in a particular field, process, or technology who acts as a trusted advisor, guiding teams, validating information, and solving complex problems to ensure accuracy, efficiency, and successful project outcomes.

Single Source of Truth

Thu, 20 Nov 2025 09:01:34 GMT

Practice of centralizing all of an organization’s data related to a given subject in a single, reliable location, ensuring that every person and every system operates with the same up-to-date information.

Drift

Mon, 10 Nov 2025 13:50:07 GMT

Drift is the difference between the Desired State of a system and its Actual State.

Detecting and resolving this drift is essential to prevent security vulnerabilities, compliance violations, and operational failures.

Actual State

Mon, 10 Nov 2025 13:47:54 GMT

Current and factual condition of a system or its data as opposed to the Desired State.

Desired State

Mon, 10 Nov 2025 13:47:45 GMT

The planned state of a system, usually defined as data or code in a SSOT.

Non-Human Identity

Sat, 26 Jul 2025 10:27:48 GMT

Identity belonging to a machine, service account, containerized workload, or autonomous agent.

Identity and Access Management

Wed, 16 Jul 2025 15:07:33 GMT

Identity and access management is a framework of policies, technologies, and business processes aimed at facilitating the management of digital identities and their access.

SSL-Bridging

Wed, 02 Jul 2025 07:50:28 GMT

The load balancer decrypts the incoming encrypted traffic (same as in SSL-Termination) and re-encrypts it when sending to the destination (e.g. backend instances).

SSL-Passthrough

Wed, 02 Jul 2025 07:50:28 GMT

The load balancer passes the encrypted traffic to the destination (e.g. backend instances) without decrypting it.

Because the load balancer only sees encrypted traffic, it is not possible to perform layer 7 (OSI model) actions.

SSL-Termination

Wed, 02 Jul 2025 07:50:28 GMT

The load balancer decrypts the incoming encrypted traffic and sends it to the destination (e.g. backend instances) unencrypted.

Information and Communication Technology

Sun, 06 Aug 2023 10:15:25 GMT

An umbrella term that encompasses all technical means used to handle information and facilitate communication through the use of computing devices (e.g., desktops, laptops, servers, mainframes, smartphones, tablet, or any other CPU-equipped device), network equipment (e.g., routers, switches, modems, cables), other peripherals (e.g., printers, scanners, external hard drives), and any related software.

Out of the box

Sun, 06 Aug 2023 10:15:25 GMT

Native or built-in feature or functionality of a product, included by default and that works immediately after first setup.

Best Effort

Sun, 06 Aug 2023 10:10:15 GMT

Reasonable effort to satisfy a request but without guaranteeing success.

Information Technology

Sun, 06 Aug 2023 10:10:15 GMT

The study or use of hardware and software to manage, store, retrieve, and deliver data.

A subset of ICT.

Real-Time Computing

Sun, 06 Aug 2023 10:10:15 GMT

Description

Real-time computing, also known as reactive computing, is used to describe a computer system that guarantees the processing of inputs and the execution of tasks within specified time limits, often referred to as “deadlines”.

We can divide real-time systems into three categories based on expectations:

soft real-time

The system continues to operate even if it’s unable to perform operations within the allotted time.

firm real-time

Deadlines are crucial, but occasional non-compliance is tolerable.

Real-Time Operating System

Sun, 06 Aug 2023 10:10:15 GMT

Recovery Point Objective

Sun, 06 Aug 2023 10:10:15 GMT

Targeted duration of time between the event of failure and the point where operations resume.

Recovery Time Objective

Sun, 06 Aug 2023 10:10:15 GMT

Agreed maximum time, based on risk analysis, between the failure event and the restoration of operations.

Software Bill of Materials

Sun, 06 Aug 2023 10:10:15 GMT

A Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) is a comprehensive inventory of all the components, including dependencies and related installed tools, used in a software.
