Difference Between Windows 10 Home Pro and Windows Enterprise

-

Windows 10 is my favorite OS, why? firstable because it is the most widely used operating system, so for example application or game developers will likely target Windows as their target user because it has big users. So Windows has lots of programs that sometimes other OSes don't.

That the main reason, the second reason is, because i've been using Windows as my main Os for very long time, along the way i learn how to customize the Os (not really customizing the core part, because unlike linux, windows is very much commercialized, you get what microsoft give).

By customize i mean just deliberately keep programs that only useful for me, remove if they are just consuming my computer resources. So now I have almost full control over my computer.

Not to be bragging, but i know many aspects of window OS, like what is services, command lines, etc. I don’t really know that much, but enough for me to stick to the OS.

There are three main branches of Windows 10, the Windows home, professional and enterprise. Windows home is for regular users, profesional is probably for someone like software or game developer, and the enterprise i believe it is for running windows as a web server or something.

Because of that different user target, Windows is divided into three different branches, and here’s a comparison table for the difference between Windows Home (H), Professional (P), Professional Workstation (PW) and Enterprise (E).

There’s some sub branches inside home, pro or enterprise. There’s one called Windows for education, which is between pro and enterprise, I don't know the details though.

On the enterprise version, there's a very stable Windows branch called Windows 10 LTSB, it is the most stable branch of Windows, which they disabled the update feature. So for stabilization purposes, the LTSB will not receive any update for a very long period of time, because software updates usually introduce new bugs.

As per my understanding, there is no difference in the core level of windows, the difference is just Enterprise has more programs than pro, and pro has more programs than home, i think you shouldn't worry in terms of security or performances because they are using the same core.

ERROR 1348 Column Password Is Not Updatable When Updating MySQL Root Password

MySQL and MariaDB password As already mentioned in the title of this blog, this error message sometimes occurred when we are trying to update our root password database, either MySQL or MariaDB, The error says: ERROR 1348 (HY000): Column 'Password' is not updatable This is because if we use this SQL command to update our database root password, and it turn out to be Restricted by MySQL to use update on mysql database. UPDATE mysql.user SET Password=PASSWORD('1234') WHERE User='root'; The solutions for MySQL Error1348 So you can not update a user password using Update commands, to update the password, use ALTER commands instead. like the following. ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '1234'; And then you need to do the flush privileges to commit previous queries (that alter command above) into the system, simply do like this. flush privileges; So now you have your root with password 1234. Although it is recommended to...

How To Create Spring Boot Project Using Netbeans

Spring Boot is a handy tool that simplifies the development of Spring Framework applications by reducing the need for cumbersome configuration. In this tutorial, I'll guide you through creating a Spring Boot application using the Netbeans IDE. While you can certainly create a Spring Boot application in Netbeans manually, it's much easier with a plugin designed for Spring development. Here's a step-by-step guide to get you started: 1. Install the Spring Boot Plugin: Open Netbeans and navigate to the Tools menu. Click on "Plugins." Once the Plugins window opens, select the "Available Plugins" tab. Look for the "Nb SpringBoot" plugin, then install and activate it. 2. Create a New Spring Boot Project: After restarting Netbeans IDE, you can create a new project with Spring Boot. Go to File > New Project. Under Categories, select Maven, then choose "Spring Boot Basic." 3. Add Dependencies: With your new project created, open the po...

Spring Kafka - How to use ReplyingKafkaTemplate send and reply synchronously

Microservice Spring with Apache Kafka Today, I want to share how to use Kafka. It's quite interesting once you get the hang of it, and I hope my explanation will make it a bit easier for you. So, Kafka is primarily known as an asynchronous messaging queuing system. This means it allows different parts of your application to communicate with each other without waiting for immediate responses. However, there are times when you might need a more immediate reply from another service in your project. Luckily, Kafka can handle this too. Here’s how it works: The client side sends a message to the server side via Kafka. This message includes a special identifier in the Kafka header request, known as KafkaHeaders.CORRELATION_ID, along with a topic where the server should respond. The server, after processing the request, sends a message back to the same topic with the same correlation ID. This way, the client knows that the message is a response to its initial request and can act accordingl...
