Backend Technologies - Reading Assignment

[fabianvon]

How does a backend application normally store information?
Database

Name a few things backend developers need to do.
Writing server-side code
Writing code to interact with a database (yes, I know, this falls under “writing server-side code”)
Coming up with system architectures, being clever about how the system does really well for the use-case at hand
Ensuring that the server-side code is secure and free of vulnerabilities (in collaboration with security teams)
Ensuring that the server-side code is optimised enough to handle large volumes of traffic
Deploying the code online so that other people can use your service

What is a technology stack?
The classic set of backend technologies (the “technology stack”) is called LAMP. It is an acronym that stands for Linux (operating system), Apache (server), MySQL (database), PHP (server-side language).

Name a popular backend stack.
Python-the pyramid framework,
JavaScript-the Deno framework

Why is NodeJS convenient for front-end developers who want to start programming backend?
JavaScript is also used on the client-side, you have a single language over the entire application (assuming you’re building a web app). This basically gives you more bang for your buck — you have one language less to learn. This is especially true if you’re moving into backend after gaining experience with web frontend.

1. How does a backend application normally store information?
   Through the server or database
2. Name a few things backend developers need to do.
   Ensure the code that interacts with the server side and the client side runs smoothly and seamlessly. Make sure there are no vulnerabilities and make sure it is not going to crash during periods of high usage
3. What is a technology stack?
   a set that includes: opperating system, server, database, and server-side language
4. Name a popular backend stack.
   LAMP
5. Why is NodeJS convenient for front-end developers who want to start programming backend?
   Because it uses Javascript for both back and frontend so you can be a fullstack web developer while only needing to learn one langauge

[Cromaz]

1. How does a backend application normally store information?
   In a database on the server
2. Name a few things backend developers need to do.
   Writing server-side code that interacts with the database
   They need to ensure the code can handle large volume of traffic.
   They need to ensure about securities, so that there are no vulnerabilities in the system.
3. What is a technology stack?
   A sum of server-side applications, for example LAMP
4. Name a popular backend stack.
   Flask, Django
5. Why is NodeJS convenient for front-end developers who want to start programming backend?
   Because they still can use their JavaScript skills to program on the server with the JavaScript language.

2. Name a few things backend developers need to do.

   • Writing server-side code
   • Writing code to interact with a database
   • Ensuring that the server-side code is secure and free of vulnerabilities
   • Ensuring that the server-side code is optimised enough to handle large volumes of traffic

[Daniel_Jude]

1. Through databases.

2. Writing code to the database, code is secure and free of vulnerabilities, code is optimised enough to handle large volumes of traffic, Deploying the code online so that other people can use your service.

3. A technology stack includes all of the hardware and software systems that are needed to develop and run a single website, web app or mobile application.

• Why is NodeJS convenient for front-end developers who want to start programming backend?

Because NodeJS is a Javascript server-side framework and allows for facilitates the app development as Javascript is also used in the front-end (you have a single language across the entire application).

[EllenM]

1. A backend application normally stores information on a server.
2. Backend developers need to determine which protocol they will write code according to - knowledge of the operating system, server, database and server-side language they’ll be using for that protocol.
3. A technology stack is the infrastructure being created, a list of all the tech services to be used for the application being developed.
4. Most popular backend framework in Python is Django.
5. NodeJS is convenient because it is written with JavaScript which is also used on the client side. It allows for a single language to be used over the entire application.

[VinceP]

1. In a database
2. write a server side code, write the code to interact with database, ensure the server side code is safe and secure and can handle large volumes of data traffic and deeply the code online to be available for online users of your service
3. Technology stack is the combination of operating systems, programming languages and framework. Classic example is: Linus (OS), Apache (server), MySQL(database) and PHP(server-side language). It’s used by developers to create applications and web solutions.
   4)LAMP - Linus (OS), Apache (server), MySQL(database) and PHP(server-side language)
4. Node is JavaScript is a server- side framework and is used as front and backend language therefore can be used as a single language to build the whole application.

[AKotell]

Q1: How does a backend application normally store information?
A: Backend applications normally store information via servers and databases.

Q2: Name a few things backend developers need to do.
A: A few things backend developers need to do are as follows:

• Write server-side code
• Write code to interact with the database
• Ensure that the server-side code is secure and free of vulnerabilities
• Ensure that the server-side code is optimised enough to handle large volumes of traffic
• Deploy the code online so that other people can use your service.

Q3:What is a technology stack?
A: A technology stack consists of an operating system, a server, a database,
and a server-side language.

Q4: Name a popular backend stack.
A: The classic set of backend technologies is called LAMP. Other backend technologies which have
replaced LAMP are ‘Flask’ and ‘Django’. Another very popular language for backend is Javascript,
and the corresponding framework being ‘NodeJS’.

Q5: Why is NodeJS convenient for front-end developers who want to start programming backend?
A: NodeJS is a single language that is and can be applied over the entire application, I.e; both
frontend and backend.
