After I built a system for myself months ago. I got an order from a friend to build a similar system. From this I built a workshop and documented it in slides. The result is now available on SlideShare.

My first tablet
In the year 2003 I had used this tablet in the university. I got the scripts as PDF and could make my notes. Digitization was not even a concept. With my bachelor thesis I was working on RFID. Today you pay with it at the cash desk. Wow, those were still times.
I had used the Tablet/Notebook until 2010, when the iPad came out.
The device still runs like an old VW Beetle 😉
Surface devices
The new Surface devices from Microsoft are really interesting. Only from the video I could see that the devices are even limited expandable. I think that’s even good.
Microservices on github
My experiments with microservices are going into the second round. It’s not finished yet, but I’m more satisfied with it than with the previous version.

Spring Boot Batch on GitHub
On GitHub I published a small Spring Batch project. Here the data are transferred from database a to database b. It is not finished yet, because I have to integrate JUnit 5 and Mockito.
New NAS system with Raspberry Pi 4
Meanwhile I got a Raspberry PI 4 and built a new NAS system. Here I installed a Debian Buster Lite and connected a Seagate 5TB 2.5″ hard disk. (Picture shows a WD HDD as test system) With Samba I also have access from a Windows computer. The speed is very good. I can transfer about 75MB/s over the network. So far the heat development is eye-catching and is monitored it.
Microsoft SQL Server migrated from Windows to Linux
Today I migrated all my Microsoft SQL Server databases from Windows to Linux. There were no problems.
The SQL Server runs on Windows 10 previously and the half-yearly updates annoyed me and so I switched to Linux. It’s great how nice and stable the whole thing works.
online portal for moderation
I am currently testing an online portal for moderation. Maybe I can use it for a project in June. It is Six Steps. I am curious.
