The Story of KLogs: What happens when an Mechanical Engineer codes

Since i no longer work at Wearhouse Automation Startup (WAS for short) and havnt for many years i feel as though i should recount the tale of the most bonkers program i ever wrote, but we need to establish some background

WAS has its HQ very far away from the big customer site and i worked as a Field Service Engineer (FSE) on site. so i learned early on that if a problem needed to be solved fast, WE had to do it. we never got many updates on what was coming down the pipeline for us or what issues were being worked on. this made us very independent

As such, we got good at reading the robot logs ourselves. it took too much time to send the logs off to HQ for analysis and get back what the problem was. we can read. now GETTING the logs is another thing.

the early robots we cut our teeth on used 2.4 gHz wifi to communicate with FSE's so dumping the logs was as simple as pushing a button in a little application and it would spit out a txt file

later on our robots were upgraded to use a 2.4 mHz xbee radio to communicate with us. which was FUCKING SLOW. and log dumping became a much more tedious process. you had to connect, go to logging mode, and then the robot would vomit all the logs in the past 2 min OR the entirety of its memory bank (only 2 options) into a terminal window. you would then save the terminal window and open it in a text editor to read them. it could take up to 5 min to dump the entire log file and if you didnt dump fast enough, the ACK messages from the control server would fill up the logs and erase the error as the memory overwrote itself.

this missing logs problem was a Big Deal for software who now weren't getting every log from every error so a NEW method of saving logs was devised: the robot would just vomit the log data in real time over a DIFFERENT radio and we would save it to a KQL server. Thanks Daddy Microsoft.

now whats KQL you may be asking. why, its Microsofts very own SQL clone! its Kusto Query Language. never mind that the system uses a SQL database for daily operations. lets use this proprietary Microsoft thing because they are paying us

so yay, problem solved. we now never miss the logs. so how do we read them if they are split up line by line in a database? why with a query of course!

select * from tbLogs where RobotUID = [64CharLongString] and timestamp > [UnixTimeCode]

if this makes no sense to you, CONGRATULATIONS! you found the problem with this setup. Most FSE's were BAD at SQL which meant they didnt read logs anymore. If you do understand what the query is, CONGRATULATIONS! you see why this is Very Stupid.

You could not search by robot name. each robot had some arbitrarily assigned 64 character long string as an identifier and the timestamps were not set to local time. so you had run a lookup query to find the right name and do some time zone math to figure out what part of the logs to read. oh yeah and you had to download KQL to view them. so now we had both SQL and KQL on our computers

NOBODY in the field like this.

But Daddy Microsoft comes to the rescue

see we didnt JUST get KQL with part of that deal. we got the entire Microsoft cloud suite. and some people (like me) had been automating emails and stuff with Power Automate

This is Microsoft Power Automate. its Microsoft's version of Scratch but it has hooks into everything Microsoft. SharePoint, Teams, Outlook, Excel, it can integrate with all of it. i had been using it to send an email once a day with a list of all the robots in maintenance.

this gave me an idea

and i checked

and Power Automate had hooks for KQL

KLogs is actually short for Kusto Logs

I did not know how to program in Power Automate but damn it anything is better then writing KQL queries. so i got to work. and about 2 months later i had a BEHEMOTH of a Power Automate program. it lagged the webpage and many times when i tried to edit something my changes wouldn't take and i would have to click in very specific ways to ensure none of my variables were getting nuked. i dont think this was the intended purpose of Power Automate but this is what it did

the KLogger would watch a list of Teams chats and when someone typed "klogs" or pasted a copy of an ERROR mesage, it would spring into action.

it extracted the robot name from the message and timestamp from teams

it would lookup the name in the database to find the 64 long string UID and the location that robot was assigned too

it would reply to the message in teams saying it found a robot name and was getting logs

it would run a KQL query for the database and get the control system logs then export then into a CSV

it would save the CSV with the a .xls extension into a folder in ShairPoint (it would make a new folder for each day and location if it didnt have one already)

it would send ANOTHER message in teams with a LINK to the file in SharePoint

it would then enter a loop and scour the robot logs looking for the keyword ESTOP to find the error. (it did this because Kusto was SLOWER then the xbee radio and had up to a 10 min delay on syncing)

if it found the error, it would adjust its start and end timestamps to capture it and export the robot logs book-ended from the event by ~ 1 min. if it didnt, it would use the timestamp from when it was triggered +/- 5 min

it saved THOSE logs to SharePoint the same way as before

it would send ANOTHER message in teams with a link to the files

it would then check if the error was 1 of 3 very specific type of error with the camera. if it was it extracted the base64 jpg image saved in KQL as a byte array, do the math to convert it, and save that as a jpg in SharePoint (and link it of course)

and then it would terminate. and if it encountered an error anywhere in all of this, i had logic where it would spit back an error message in Teams as plaintext explaining what step failed and the program would close gracefully

I deployed it without asking anyone at one of the sites that was struggling. i just pointed it at their chat and turned it on. it had a bit of a rocky start (spammed chat) but man did the FSE's LOVE IT.

about 6 months later software deployed their answer to reading the logs: a webpage that acted as a nice GUI to the KQL database. much better then an CSV file

it still needed you to scroll though a big drop-down of robot names and enter a timestamp, but i noticed something. all that did was just change part of the URL and refresh the webpage

SO I MADE KLOGS 2 AND HAD IT GENERATE THE URL FOR YOU AND REPLY TO YOUR MESSAGE WITH IT. (it also still did the control server and jpg stuff). Theres a non-zero chance that klogs was still in use long after i left that job

now i dont recommend anyone use power automate like this. its clunky and weird. i had to make a variable called "Carrage Return" which was a blank text box that i pressed enter one time in because it was incapable of understanding /n or generating a new line in any capacity OTHER then this (thanks support forum).

im also sure this probably is giving the actual programmer people anxiety. imagine working at a company and then some rando you've never seen but only heard about as "the FSE whos really good at root causing stuff", in a department that does not do any coding, managed to, in their spare time, build and release and entire workflow piggybacking on your work without any oversight, code review, or permission.....and everyone liked it

[krcdgamedev]

So in case you're wondering what I've been up to for the last month or so (no one is here), I've been working on this-

A CRUD app! Because that seems to be what everyone's making these days. It's an editor for monster data. Because, like, all the tutorials were for managing employee data and shit, but this is what data I have that needs managing. It's got a React js frontend and a javascript backend.

It basically runs off this list of data that spawns the entry rows and stuff, so I can add to it easily or reuse the base code between projects:

That's neat, but it was a real pain in the ass to have to start up both the client and the server whenever I wanted to use it, so I made basically the same thing but in Python with tkinter:

And as an example of reuse here's it being used for moves data-

A lot of things are made easier with this. Mainly there's only one data list, whereas the CRUD app needed the state hooks declared, then the data list including the "pointers" to the state variables and setter functions, then the backend needed its own list of the names of the SQL columns.

This version has some extra features like, if you add something to the data list it'll add a column to the SQL database for you. Plus Python is similar to GDScript, so I could bundle a basic version of it with the Mondo code.

Meanwhile I've been upgrading the battle system to handle multiple mons in one battle-

Next I'm probably going to step back a bit and document the code, because it's becoming a bit messy and I need to clean it up

VPS Windows Hosting in India: The Ultimate Guide for 2024

In the ever-evolving landscape of web hosting, Virtual Private Servers (VPS) have become a preferred choice for both businesses and individuals. Striking a balance between performance, cost-effectiveness, and scalability, VPS hosting serves those seeking more than what shared hosting provides without the significant expense of a dedicated server. Within the myriad of VPS options, VPS Windows Hosting stands out as a popular choice for users who have a preference for the Microsoft ecosystem.

This comprehensive guide will explore VPS Windows Hosting in India, shedding light on its functionality, key advantages, its relevance for Indian businesses, and how to select the right hosting provider in 2024.

What is VPS Windows Hosting?

VPS Windows Hosting refers to a hosting type where a physical server is partitioned into various virtual servers, each operating with its own independent Windows OS. Unlike shared hosting, where resources are shared among multiple users, VPS provides dedicated resources, including CPU, RAM, and storage, which leads to enhanced performance, security, and control.

Why Choose VPS Windows Hosting in India?

The rapid growth of India���s digital landscape and the rise in online businesses make VPS hosting an attractive option. Here are several reasons why Windows VPS Hosting can be an optimal choice for your website or application in India:

Seamless Compatibility: Windows VPS is entirely compatible with Microsoft applications such as ASP.NET, SQL Server, and Microsoft Exchange. For websites or applications that depend on these technologies, Windows VPS becomes a natural option.

Scalability for Expanding Businesses: A notable advantage of VPS hosting is its scalability. As your website or enterprise grows, upgrading server resources can be done effortlessly without downtime or cumbersome migration. This aspect is vital for startups and SMEs in India aiming to scale economically.

Localized Hosting for Improved Speed: Numerous Indian hosting providers have data centers within the country, minimizing latency and enabling quicker access for local users, which is particularly advantageous for targeting audiences within India.

Enhanced Security: VPS hosting delivers superior security compared to shared hosting, which is essential in an era where cyber threats are increasingly prevalent. Dedicated resources ensure your data remains isolated from others on the same physical server, diminishing the risk of vulnerabilities.

5. SQL Error in OpenEMR Usage

Error: A fatal error occurred that showed “Uncaught Error: SQLSTATE[42S02]: Base table or view not found…”

Cause: The missing database table or improper database table creation process causes this error to appear.

Solution:

·        Re-execute the SQL upgrade script through the command: mysql -u root -p openemr < sql/upgrade.sql.

·        All database tables need to be imported correctly.

6. PDF Generation Failure

Error: The error message reads, “FPDF error: Unable to create output file.”

Cause: The file system write permissions create a cause that prevents OpenEMR from generating output files.

Solution:

·        Users need write permissions in the sites/default/documents directory because of this command: sudo chmod -R777/var/www/openemr/sites/default/documents.

Common Mistakes During Setup

1.Inadequate System Requirements Assessment

·        Performance problems emerge because organizations underestimate their hardware requirements along with their software needs.

·        System requirements assessment needs to become a complete process done before any installation begins.

2.Neglecting Data Backup and Recovery Planning

·        Failing to plan backup procedures and recovery strategies remains one of the main setup challenges.

·        Planning for data backup becomes essential since the absence of planning may cause complete loss of information.

·        Regular backups should be conducted either through OpenEMR’s tools or third-party scripting solutions.

3.Improper Configuration

·        Incorrectly implemented settings result in both performance issues and system errors.

·        Users should verify that both database and PHP settings align correctly with OpenEMR’s necessary requirements.

Real-World Examples and Case Studies

Cloud Success Story: Through OpenEMR Cloud on AWS, this Vermont clinic cut their server maintenance expenses by 70% and also gained better peak-season system capabilities.

On-Premises Example: A large Texas hospital chose on-premises deployment of OpenEMR to sustain whole authority over security standards while maintaining easy integration with current hospital information infrastructure.

Troubleshooting Tips for Windows Installation

·        Check PHP settings because you must enable all required PHP extensions while following the correct settings in the php.ini configuration file.

·        Check MySQL Connection by verifying the correct running of MySQL and sqlconf.php credentials.

·        During installation, use a temporary disable of antivirus software to prevent interruptions.

·        You should check OpenEMR directory permissions to stop unauthorized access to its files.

Future Trends in OpenEMR

OpenEMR will continue integrating modern features into its system as healthcare technology advances forward.

AI and Machine Learning

·        OpenEMR will incorporate artificial intelligence-based clinical decision support systems and predictive analytics technology for patient care in future updates.

Telehealth Enhancements

·        The telehealth system will receive updated modules that enable remote consultation access while offering better healthcare access to patients.

Interoperability Standards

·        Additional FHIR technology support in the system will help different healthcare systems communicate their data more efficiently.

Conclusion

The resolution of OpenEMR installation problems requires a careful approach together with expertise in frequent installation barriers. Healthcare providers who focus on PHP compatibility along with database connections and permissions will establish a successful OpenEMR setup while maximizing its functionality. Continuous updates about the latest OpenEMR advancements enable healthcare professionals to achieve maximum performance and efficiency for their management tasks.

Strategic Database Solutions for Modern Business Needs

Today’s businesses rely on secure, fast, and scalable systems to manage data across distributed teams and environments. As demand for flexibility and 24/7 support increases, database administration services have become central to operational stability. These services go far beyond routine backups—they include performance tuning, capacity planning, recovery strategies, and compliance support.

Adopting Agile Support with Flexible Engagement Models

Companies under pressure to scale operations without adding internal overhead are increasingly turning to outsourced database administration. This approach provides round-the-clock monitoring, specialised expertise, and faster resolution times, all without the cost of hiring full-time staff. With database workloads becoming more complex, outsourced solutions help businesses keep pace with technology changes while controlling costs.

What Makes Outsourced Services So Effective

The benefit of using outsourced database administration services lies in having instant access to certified professionals who are trained across multiple platforms—whether Oracle, SQL Server, PostgreSQL, or cloud-native options. These experts can handle upgrades, patching, and diagnostics with precision, allowing internal teams to focus on core business activities instead of infrastructure maintenance.

Cost-Effective Performance Management at Scale

Companies looking to outsource dba roles often do so to reduce capital expenditure and increase operational efficiency. Outsourcing allows businesses to pay only for the resources they need, when they need them—without being tied to long-term contracts or dealing with the complexities of recruitment. This flexibility is especially valuable for businesses managing seasonal spikes or undergoing digital transformation projects.

Minimizing Downtime Through Proactive Monitoring

Modern database administration services go beyond traditional support models by offering real-time health checks, automatic alerts, and predictive performance analysis. These features help identify bottlenecks or security issues before they impact users. Proactive support allows organisations to meet service-level agreements (SLAs) and deliver consistent performance to customers and internal stakeholders.

How External Partners Fill Critical Skill Gaps

Working with experienced database administration outsourcing companies can close gaps in internal knowledge, especially when managing hybrid or multi-cloud environments. These companies typically have teams with varied technical certifications and deep domain experience, making them well-equipped to support both legacy systems and modern architecture. The result is stronger resilience and adaptability in managing database infrastructure.

Supporting Business Continuity with Professional Oversight

Efficient dba administration includes everything from setting up new environments to handling failover protocols and disaster recovery planning. With dedicated oversight, businesses can avoid unplanned outages and meet compliance requirements, even during migrations or platform upgrades. The focus on stability and scalability helps maintain operational continuity in high-demand settings.

Title: From Data to Dashboards: Unleash Your Potential with Advanced Power BI Training Courses

In today’s fast-paced digital world, data is more than just numbers—it's a story waiting to be told. Whether you’re working in finance, marketing, HR, or IT, the ability to transform raw data into clear, interactive visualizations can be a game-changer. Enter Power BI, Microsoft’s powerful business intelligence tool that has revolutionized how organizations handle data.

But basic knowledge only scratches the surface. To truly leverage Power BI’s potential, professionals are turning to advanced Power BI training courses. These courses go beyond bar charts and pie graphs—they unlock dynamic dashboards, real-time analytics, and deep data modeling techniques that drive decision-making.

Why “Advanced” Matters More Than Ever

Sure, you can get by with a few drag-and-drop reports. But to stand out in today’s data-driven economy, you need mastery. Advanced Power BI skills aren’t just for analysts—they’re for anyone who wants to lead with insights.

Through advanced Power BI training courses, you’ll gain skills that empower you to design smarter dashboards, apply complex DAX formulas, and automate data refresh cycles. More importantly, you’ll understand how to think like a data architect—cleaning, connecting, and shaping data to tell stories that influence real outcomes.

What You’ll Learn Beyond the Basics

The curriculum in most advanced Power BI training courses covers a wide range of powerful tools and techniques. You’ll explore advanced data modeling, optimization, and DAX (Data Analysis Expressions)—the magic behind Power BI's powerful calculations. You’ll also dive into topics like row-level security, which is crucial when building reports for varied stakeholders.

Additionally, many courses teach integration with services like Azure, Power Automate, and SQL Server, elevating your capabilities from just visual reporting to full-scale business intelligence architecture. And let’s not forget—real-world case studies and hands-on projects are often a big part of the learning, ensuring you’re not just memorizing, but applying.

Who Should Take These Courses (And Why Now)?

If you're a data analyst, business intelligence developer, project manager, or even a curious entrepreneur, advanced Power BI training courses are your next step to becoming a true data leader. The demand for Power BI experts continues to rise as companies look to data for strategic decisions, trend forecasting, and operational efficiency.

Now is the perfect time to upgrade your skillset. These courses are often flexible, available online, and tailored to suit different levels of experience. So whether you're looking to impress in your current role or aiming for a promotion, this kind of training is a wise investment in your career future.

Choosing the Right Training Course

Not all courses are created equal. When searching for the best advanced Power BI training courses, look for those offering instructor-led sessions, real project work, peer discussion forums, and certification. It’s also important to ensure the syllabus aligns with your career goals—whether that’s dashboard development, data modeling, or enterprise-level deployment.

Reading reviews, exploring course previews, and checking instructor credentials can also help narrow down the best fit. The right course won’t just teach you Power BI—it will help you become a confident storyteller in the language of data.
