A dev new word - Condensing

Hmm..., You already know what is condensing? Maybe not. You might have heard about pickling which is converting an object in a character stream. This character stream can be used to reconstruct the object and the object retains its properties.
I made a word just like it !

Origins:

There isn't a word for some stuff so, I made one.
I thought about it while writing my exams. (I'm in 9th grade)

Meaning:

Ok, let's imagine that we have a web server which renders a web page about blogs. When a user posts a blog, we save the content to a file and then render all blogs written so far in a page. The process of getting content and saving it to a file is called (Drum roll) Condensation.

Q. Why did I choose condensation ?

A. When water vapour (in our case, raw data),
condenses in liquid water (ordered data in
a file) is called CONDENSATION. 🤣

How would you use this word ?

Examples are:

  1. I built a micro service to condense the users data.
  2. Let's process the condensed data

    NOTE: Condensing doesn't mean to write data to a file. It simply means to get data from a remote/non-local system. (In our case, a web server hosted on Amazon Web Services)

Btw, you're free to use this word anywhere. No Copyrights. 😅

What do y'all think about this post? Lemme know in the comments. Bye
