SYSTEMS

Fail-safe watchdog

Cut the connection to a field valve and watch the 120-second watchdog close it safely. Restore it in time and the program carries on.

From Irrilot: handshake acknowledgments and a 120-second watchdog timer.

Index or full scan

Run the same lookup with and without an index and compare how much each one has to read as the table grows.

From Vipani ERP: composite B-tree indexes on reporting workflows.

Batching and caching

Fire the same burst of API requests with batching and a cache switched on or off, and count the database trips.

From Vipani ERP: query batching and Redis caching in front of the database.
