Major Difference between Cookie vs Tokens



              Major Difference between Cookies vs Tokens


 Cookies and Tokens are the way through which you authenticate your SPA(Single-page Applications) as well as other web-based applications. But the current scenario of development prefers Tokens based authentication over Cookie-based authentication.




            The major difference between Cookie and Tokens are:
  • Cookie-based authentication used as a default method for authentication and it used for a long time(traditional way of authentication).
  • In cookie-based authentication, an authentication record must be kept the server and client-side and the server needs to keep track of active sessions in the database.
  •  Whereas in Token-based authentication has become more popular nowadays because it uses a lot in Web-apps, APIs and SPA(Single-page Application).
  •  The token-based authentication server does not keep the record of the user login. Basically, when we talking about tokens it is authentication with  (JWT)JSON web tokens.
         
In this authentication authorization head in form of JWT(JSON web tokens) but it also sent in the body of  POST request or query parameters. Token-based authentication also used with various web frameworks like React, Vue, Backbone which used as making single-page applications.

 So, tokens based authentication basically JSON web tokens are used on a large scale nowadays to authenticate the web-apps and other applications. The major advantages of JWT or tokens are it is stateless, scalable and having better performance and also protected from attacks like(XSS).

Machine Learning and It's Types

                           Machine Learning and It's Types                                 Machine Learning is ability to automatically learn and improve from experience without being explicitly programmed. So rather than typing the code for all the times and do knowledge engineering, machine learning helps the machine  to learn from previous data and find insights and pattern from it.  Basically Data is train on given data set and and applied machine learning algorithm and it find insights. Simply put, Machine learning makes a computer act and think like a human. Types of machine learning           Supervised Learning In supervised learning you use labeled data,which is a data set that has been classified, to infer a learning algorithm. The data set is used as the basis for predicting the classification of other unlabeled data through the use of machine learning algorithms. Supervised and Unsupervised learning   Uns

When to Use HeatMap plot for Visualization of Data

HeatMap (Matrix) Plot Visualization for the Data: When to Use? Visual representation always helps in simplification either any real world entities or the data. Visualization  provides an pictorial representation so anyone can easily understand about the data and their insights(what they are representing and in which range the value is lying.                                                                                                                                                             Source: HeatMap Now when the data science becomes one of the popular domain in Computer science. It makes a big impact both in technology domain and in industries. Every industries now a days wants to find insights about their business data that are generated daily and improve and grow their business accordingly. So the data science jobs now become very trending. To make a complete analysis of data one's should many times go through visualization phase. Because everyone is not a good statist

Artificial Intelligence Transforms the World by Automating the Industries

              Artificial intelligence transforming the world slowly. The self-driving car, Amazon Alexa, IBM Watson, Google voice assistant all these are the few major examples of AI-powered system. The current impact of artificial intelligence makes it's a major field of study for computer science students regarding the future because there is a huge demand for machine learning and Artificial intelligence engineers and researchers in industry. By making everything automatic(self-learning technique) through computation it changes the world slowly. The current scenario of artificial intelligence is highly trending and many of the top multi-national companies acquire this technology to improve their business as well as more production. The one of core part of AI i.e. machine learning which is also also playing a majore role in this growth. . https://www.searchenterpriseai.techtarget.com After seeing the huge demands of machine learning and Artificial Intellig
