Le present essai propose en premier lieu une analyse de la theorie linguistique de Walter Benjamin telle qu'enoncee dans son essai de 1916, Uber Sprache uberhaupt und uber die Sprache des Menschen. Dans un meme temps, il propose aussi une analyse de la theorie linguistique de la Kabbale telle qu'elaboree par Gershom Scholem tout au long de sa vie, dans un nombre non negligeable de publications, theorie dont il chercha a faire la synthese dans son essai de 1970, Der Name Gottes und die Sprachtheorie der Kabbala. / Cet essai se propose ensuite de demontrer comment Scholem et Benjamin ont trouve dans l'oeuvre de Franz Kafka l'expression litteraire de leurs theories linguistiques. / En conclusion, cet essai se propose de demontrer comment Scholem et Benjamin, a partir de leurs theories linguistiques respectives, et malgre la proximite indeniable de celles-ci, en sont venus a interpreter Kafka d'une facon diametralement opposee. Scholem, en effet, voyait dans cette oeuvre l'expression d'une des theories les plus nihilistes de la Kabbale: Die Unvollziehbarkeit der Offenbarung, une negation de la Revelation divine; Benjamin voyait pour sa part chez Kafka l'expression d'une tres mince possibilite de redemption.

Leitura da narrativa O estrangeiro, de Albert Camus, e da narrativa fílmica O homem que não estava lá, dos irmãos Ethan Coen e Joel Coen, com vistas a propor uma reflexão literária sobre o desconcerto do sujeito num mundo de solidão, indiferença e nonsense existencial. Oriundas do esmaecimento de qualquer sentimento diante da inexorabilidade da consciência da finitude, pelo comparatismo e com apoio no conceito de intertextualidade, são passadas em revista as trajetórias contingentes de Ed Crane − protagonista da obra cinematográfica − e Meursault, personagem central do romance camusiano. Luz e sombra potencializam a aterradora atmosfera de absurdo na qual se desequilibra Ed Crane, em sua existência obscura, em contraponto com a claridade reinante no percurso de Meursault. Ambos os personagens são condenados pela sociedade, de maneira insólita e definitiva, por intermédio de textos que denunciam, outrossim, a engrenagem trágica do sistema judiciário, permitindo-nos conectar os citados personagens, Plume Um certo Plume, de Henri Michaux e Joseph K. angústia errante engendrada por Franz Kafka em O processo / A reading of Albert Camus narrative The Stranger and of the narrative of the movie The Man Who Wasnt There, by Cohen brothers (Ethan Coen and Joel Coen), so as to propose a literary reflection on the uneasiness of the subject in a world of loneliness, indifference and existential nonsense. Arising from the fading out any feeling towards the inevitable awareness of finitude, by the comparatism and the support of the concept of "intertextuality", contingent trajectories of Ed Crane - protagonist of the movie - and Meursault, central character of the camusian novel, are reviewed. Light and shadow potentiate the fearful atmosphere of absurdity in which Ed Crane unbalances, in his obscure existence, as opposed to the light reigning in Meursault. Both characters are condemned by society in an unusual and definite way, through texts which show the tragic gear of the judiciary system, allowing us to connect the cited characters, Plume Un certain Plume, by Henri Michaux and Joseph K. "anguish errant" created by Franz Kafka in The Trial

As a system grows in size, it is common that it is transformed into a microservice architecture. In order to be able monitor this new architecture there is a need to collect information from the microservices. The software company IDA Infront is transitioning their product iipax to a microservice architecture and is faced with this problem. In order to solve this, they propose the use of a Message-oriented Middleware (MOM). There exists many different MOMs that are suitable to execute this task. The aim of this thesis is to determine, in terms of latency, throughput and scalability, which MOM is best suitable for this. Out of four suitable MOMs Apache Kafka and RabbitMQ are chosen for further testing and benchmarking. The tests display that RabbitMQ is able to send single infrequent messages (latency) faster than Kafka. But it is also shown that Kafka is faster at sending a lot of messages rapidly and with an increased number of producers sending messages (throughput and scalability). However, the scalability test suggests that RabbitMQ possibly scales better with a larger amount of microservices, thus more testing is needed to get a definite conclusion.
