Efficient Duplicate Image Removal: Using ImageDeDup Python

Efficient Duplicate Image Removal: A Python Guide In this blog post, we will walk you through the process of identifying and removing duplicate images from your directories using Python. We will leverage perceptual hashing to find similar images and delete duplicates while keeping the largest file in the group. This solution is perfect for users who want to save disk space and keep their image collections organized. Why You Should Use This Code Over time, especially when dealing with large collections of images, duplicate files can accumulate. These duplicates take up unnecessary space on your system. Manually sifting through these images can be tedious, but with the help of Python, perceptual hashing, and concurrent processing, this task becomes much easier.

Internet Information Server (IIS) or Internet Information Services

What Is IIS?
IIS is a web server application which is provided by Microsoft to run with its Windows Operating System. It is the most used server after the Apache HTTP Server. It is available for all the editions of Microsoft Windows Operating Systems but, doesn't comes installed beforehand. The latest stable release of IIS 7.5 supports HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, FTPS, SMTP and NNTP protocols. It is a type of Web server, mail server and FTP server.

Features of IIS:
IIS is build of up of various modules integrated with each other to form the IIS. Every module performs the specific task to accomplish a user function. The modules and the task performed by them are as follows:
  • HTTP modules – Used to perform tasks specific to HTTP in the request-processing pipeline, such as responding to information and inquiries sent in client headers, returning HTTP errors, and redirecting requests.
  • Security modules – Used to perform tasks related to security in the request-processing pipeline, such as specifying authentication schemes, performing URL authorization, and filtering requests.
  • Content modules – Used to perform tasks related to content in the request-processing pipeline, such as processing requests for static files, returning a default page when a client does not specify a resource in a request, and listing the contents of a directory.
  • Compression modules – Used to perform tasks related to compression in the request-processing pipeline, such as compressing responses, applying Gzip compression transfer coding to responses, and performing pre-compression of static content.
  • Caching modules – Used to perform tasks related to caching in the request-processing pipeline, such as storing processed information in memory on the server and using cached content in subsequent requests for the same resource.
  • Logging and Diagnostics modules – Used to perform tasks related to logging and diagnostics in the request-processing pipeline, such as passing information and processing status to HTTP.sys for logging, reporting events, and tracking requests currently executing in worker processes.
  • Besides these features the IIS 7.5 includes various other features such as:
  • Client Certificate Mapping
  • IP Security
  • Request Filtering
  • URL Authorization

Wikipedia Explains Today's Global Outage

By -
The Wikimedia Tech Blog has a post explaining why many users were unable to reach Wikimedia sites due to DNS resolution failure. The article states, 'Due to an overheating problem in our European data center many of our servers turned off to protect themselves. As this impacted all Wikipedia and other projects access from European users, we were forced to move all user traffic to our Florida cluster, for which we have a standard quick failover procedure in place, that changes our DNS entries. However, shortly after we did this failover switch, it turned out that this failover mechanism was now broken, causing the DNS resolution of Wikimedia sites to stop working globally. This problem was quickly resolved, but unfortunately it may take up to an hour before access is restored for everyone, due to caching effects.

Opting classic row modeling or EAV data modeling?

By -
Few of the circumstances are listed below where EAV scores over conventional tables: ·          The data type of individual attributes varies. Like in above example EAV is used because the requirements vary from client to client like some may want an extra address like added to existing address format. ·          The categories of data are numerous, growing or fluctuating, but the number of instances (records/rows) within each category is very small. Here, with conventional modeling, the database’s Entity-Relationship Diagram might have hundreds of tables: the tables that contain thousands/ millions of rows/instances are emphasized visually to the same extent as those with very few rows. The latter are candidates for conversion to an EAV representation.
