Episode 63 - Geodatabase Talk - SDE Intercepts
Sde intercept
Any operation performed on ArcGIS ends up eventually to the geodatabase as a set of one or more queries. A “zoom-in” or pan operation translates to multiple queries to the underlying geodatabase.
SDE intercepts always you to intercept and take a look at those queries to diagnose slow operations in your enterprise geodatabase. It also helps pinpoint where the bottle neck is and how can you optimize your app or geodatabase. https://support.esri.com/en/technical-article/000010355

Episode 62 - Load Balancer vs Reverse Proxy
Most of the time a Load balancer is a reverse proxy but a reverse proxy is not necessary a load balancer. Reverse proxy takes a request from client and forward it to “a server” doesn’t care of the server is overloaded or down or not just forwards it. Load balancer stores state about each server behind it, how overloaded each server is, and what server is down, and smartly forward request to a server to balance the load across all the group. So a load balancer is a special case of a reverse proxy but smarter!
