Non-Connected Devices vs Networked Systems
Developers should learn about non-connected devices when building systems for isolated environments, such as rural infrastructure, secure facilities, or battery-powered IoT applications where network dependency is a liability meets developers should learn about networked systems to build scalable, reliable applications that operate in distributed environments, such as web services, cloud platforms, and iot devices. Here's our take.
Non-Connected Devices
Developers should learn about non-connected devices when building systems for isolated environments, such as rural infrastructure, secure facilities, or battery-powered IoT applications where network dependency is a liability
Non-Connected Devices
Nice PickDevelopers should learn about non-connected devices when building systems for isolated environments, such as rural infrastructure, secure facilities, or battery-powered IoT applications where network dependency is a liability
Pros
- +Understanding this concept helps in designing robust, self-sufficient solutions that minimize external dependencies, reduce attack surfaces, and ensure functionality in connectivity-challenged scenarios, which is vital for reliability and safety-critical applications
- +Related to: embedded-systems, iot-devices
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
Networked Systems
Developers should learn about Networked Systems to build scalable, reliable applications that operate in distributed environments, such as web services, cloud platforms, and IoT devices
Pros
- +Understanding this concept is crucial for optimizing performance, ensuring security, and troubleshooting connectivity issues in real-world scenarios like client-server architectures or peer-to-peer networks
- +Related to: tcp-ip, http-https
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
The Verdict
Use Non-Connected Devices if: You want understanding this concept helps in designing robust, self-sufficient solutions that minimize external dependencies, reduce attack surfaces, and ensure functionality in connectivity-challenged scenarios, which is vital for reliability and safety-critical applications and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.
Use Networked Systems if: You prioritize understanding this concept is crucial for optimizing performance, ensuring security, and troubleshooting connectivity issues in real-world scenarios like client-server architectures or peer-to-peer networks over what Non-Connected Devices offers.
