How to ssh to the remote server using Windows machine

In this blog, I will explain how to use the putty and puttygen software to connect to the remote server.

putty is a free software application for  Window. which can be used to make a connection to the remote server.


What you need 
  • ssh login credential
  • download putty.exe and puttygen.exe from this link 
Initial Plan

I have created an AWS EC2 instance and downloaded the myKeys.pem file. By using the puttygen software, myKeys.pem will be converted to myKeys.ppk format. Finally, using this key I will make a connection to the remote server using putty.

Let's Start.

Step 1: convert .pem to  .ppk 

Start the puttygen application.




Click on Load and select the .pem file to be converted.




click on the "Save Private Key" button and name the key with .ppk extension and save.

Now I have the myKeys.ppk file. I will use this key to connect to the remote server.


Step 2: make a connection with the remote server
Start the putty application and go to Auth under ssh section




Browse the created .ppk file and go to the session



After filling the remote username and the IP address (Host Name section), open the connection.

Java Increment Operations: `n++` vs `n = n + 1` vs `n += 1`

In Java, incrementing a variable by one can be done in several ways: n++ , n = n + 1 , and n += 1 . While these expressions achieve the same end result, they differ slightly in syntax and use cases. Let's explore each one and discuss their performance. 1. n++ Post-Increment Operator : Increments the value of n by 1 after its current value has been used. Common Usage : Typically used in loops and other contexts where the current value needs to be used before incrementing. int n = 5; n++; // n is now 6 2. n = n + 1 Addition Assignment : Explicitly sets n to its current value plus 1. Readability : Straightforward and clear, though slightly more verbose. int n = 5; n = n + 1; // n is now 6 3. n += 1 Compound Assignment Operator : Equivalent to n = n + 1 , but more concise. Usage : Combines addition and assignment into one step. int n = 5; n += 1; // n is

Understanding C1 and C2 Compilers in Java

Understanding C1 and C2 Compilers in Java Understanding C1 and C2 Compilers in Java In Java, the Just-In-Time (JIT) compiler is a part of the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) that improves the performance of Java applications by compiling bytecode into native machine code at runtime. The JIT compiler includes two different compilers, known as the C1 and C2 compilers, each with distinct optimization strategies and purposes. C1 Compiler (Client Compiler) The C1 compiler, also known as the client compiler, is designed for fast startup times and lower memory consumption. It performs lighter and quicker optimizations, which makes it suitable for applications that require quick startup and responsiveness. Key characteristics of the C1 compiler include: Quick Compilation: Prioritizes fast compilation times over deep optimizations. Low Overhead: Consumes less memory and resources during compilation. Profile-Guided Optimization: Ca

When To Use Indexes In MySQL

When deciding when and how to create an index in your MySQL database, it's important to consider how the data is being used. Let's say you have a database of  students . We will create it like this: CREATE TABLE `students` ( `id` int ( 11 ) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT , `first_name` varchar ( 255 ) DEFAULT NULL , `last_name` varchar ( 255 ) DEFAULT NULL , `class` varchar ( 255 ) DEFAULT NULL , PRIMARY KEY ( `id` ) ) ENGINE = InnoDB Indexes are best used on columns that are frequently used in where clauses, and in any kind of sorting, such as "order by". You should also pay attention to whether or not this information will change frequently, because it will slow down your updates and inserts. Since you wont frequently be adding students, you don't have to worry about the inserts Let's say that you will be looking up the students with a web interface and the end user will be typing in the students name to find them, since r
