Last week I ran an ACC report for the top 25 applications. Netflix was #3 (university environment, so it's to be expected). Today, I ran the same report and Netflix (as an application) is no where to be found. I launched Netflix on my computer to generate some traffic and I'm not seeing it (I waited 20 minutes to make sure the session was ended and logged). I've tried searching, but I don't see any modifications to the application. Any reason this isn't showing up any more?

I have noticed quite a few incidences where netflix has been identified as web-browsing. Please make sure you are on the latest content version (463 being latest today) and test again as I see some improvements being reported. You may open a support case to follow the updates from bug 68271.

The overhead for looking at URLs is pretty small, and you're honestly already doing it as part of the normal firewall processes anyways. I wouldn't expect a noticable decrease no matter what you trigger on, URL or application.

I am having issues getting Netflix streaming to work. I've read through probably every discussion on the forum, but they appear old and none have worked. Luckily Netflix is not a big percentage of what we watch, but I'm pretty sure it was working until recently. HBO Go and other streaming services work fine. I cannot get it to work either on a Roku or directly on an LG SmartTV.

I've tried adding the LG and/or Roku, I have both setup with a static IP, to the Transport Mode Skiplist Source and Destination, with the Allow checkbox both checked and unchecked...nothing works. Both ways actually block all Internet connectivity to the LG.

With each setting connectivity is completely blocked or partial, but nothing has allowed streaming to succeed. When I remove any specific configs for the LG, Netflix actually works the best, but will not stream, stopping at 25% for every attempt.

If you use transparent web filtering then adding the device used to stream netflix to the transparent source skiplist should work. You are using transparent web filtering or are you using standard mode?

Yes, I am in Transparent Mode. What I find is that when I put the LG into Source or Destination or both, with or without the Allow https/s button checked, it doesn't work. And wen I put the LG in Source it blocks all Internet traffic to the LG with or without Allow checked.

Even as media companies like Disney and tech giants like Apple push into streaming video, Netflix remains the No. 1 service in the world, and one of the most-sought after tech companies to work for. Its employees are also some of the happiest out there.

Those aren't just platitudes to Netflix recruiters. These qualities are deeply ingrained into Netflix's culture, which is detailed in a more than 4,000-word culture memo on the streaming company's website. The document made waves when it was first released a decade ago because of elements of its management philosophy like its high-performance culture, lack of a formal vacation policy, and aversion to "brilliant jerks."

Some of those elements remain in the culture memo today. The company's 10 core values are: judgment, communication, curiosity, courage, passion, selflessness, innovation, inclusion, integrity, and impact.

In the interview stage, for example, you'll likely be expected to give candid feedback, which ties into Netflix's communications and integrity values. The company hires on culture as much as it hires for skill.

One recent candidate was asked during an interview about how she might change specific features in Netflix's US product, Toda said. The candidate was from Mexico and suggested that Netflix should also ask about features from versions of its products outside of the US, since the company was trying to grow globally.

While you're reading up on Netflix's culture, honestly reflect on whether it's right for you. With values like "communication" and "passion" also come candid feedback, and the expectation that workers should perform at the top of their fields. The Wall Street Journal in 2018 reported that Netflix's culture has also resulted in blunt and frequent firings.

"You don't do yourself a favor if you trick the interview system to get in," one former employee told Business Insider. "It's a really challenging place to work ... They don't just put it [culture deck] away when you get hired. It comes up all the time, in every meeting."

Netflix has a "WeAreNetflix" account on LinkedIn, Twitter, and other social networks where it documents what its like to work at the streaming company. It also has a podcast where its execs and recruiters discuss what individual teams, like legal, are doing.

"We're really looking for people who can help us with that scale and who want to live in a culture of freedom and responsibility and take risks and really push what we're trying to accomplish," Toda said.

Craft your social profiles, resum, or portfolio to showcase your skills, more than just your job titles. Netflix is known for making "unconventional hires" who may not have held the exact role they're hiring for before but have transferable skills for roles, company insiders said.

Netflix recruiters like to see that you're passionate about the company and its values, too. That could be as simple as including a sentence in your email to a hiring manager or recruiter that says, "I'm really passionate about X value from your culture memo," or "My favorite Netflix shows are X, Y, Z."

Netflix, like other companies, also relies on employee referrals to find rockstar recruits. About 15% of people on Glassdoor who said they interviewed at Netflix got the opportunity through employee referrals.

The company does not have a formal referral program that offers bonuses or other perks for referring employees who get hired. (It doesn't offer any bonuses.) So job hunters seeking referrals from Netflix employees will have to show they're worth the energy.

"Assume people are reading it on their phones," said the recruiter, who has worked with Netflix, and spoke under condition of anonymity. "More than three swipes up on your phone, it's too long. You should be able to tell somebody why you're reaching out and what you have to offer."

Insiders also recommended applying for openings through Netflix's website before requesting a referral. Netflix really does mine those online applications, the insiders said. The employee recommendations could go further if recruiters see the person who was referred has been actively applying and interested in Netflix.

That's followed by a call with the hiring manager, who would be your boss if you get the job. Then comes an interview panel at Netflix's offices. Depending on the role, there may also be a technical or skills test at some point.

During the on-site interview, you'd typically meet with four to eight people, including the hiring manager. The more senior the position, the more people you're likely to meet with, former employees said. Be prepared for at least half a day of interviews, the people said. Some candidates may be asked to come in multiple times to accommodate the schedules of top executives.

The interviewers also rate their recommendation on the candidate on a scale of one to four, one for "no," two for "leaning no," three for "leaning yes," and four for "yes," two former employees said. Other people involved in the candidate's interview process can also access this feedback, but it's not available to the candidate or employees more broadly, they said.

It's meant to assess how comfortable candidates would be giving and receiving feedback and how they might handle conflict. Integrity and courage are two tenants of Netflix's culture. "You say what you think, when it's in the best interest of Netflix, even if it is uncomfortable," the memo says.

Employees are encouraged to regularly give feedback to other employees, including their bosses, all the way up to CEO Reed Hastings. People also routinely push back on ideas in meetings to make sure they've considered things from all angles before moving forward, insiders said.

"I loved it because he said, 'I've never done it ... I've never been in an environment where I felt safe to do that,'" Toda said. "But then he also said, 'I read the culture memo and I know that I'm going to need to do it here. It's one of the reasons I'm interviewing, because I want to build that skill.'"

I want to start locally 2 instances of the same application on different ports and have them both registered with Eureka. I'm using sample service ( -server/conf/sampleservice/sample-eureka-service.properties)

For some reason I'm getting only one instance registered with Eureka at any given time. Both of them start without exceptions and can talk to Eureka OK.When I start a second instance, it seems to simply overwrite info about 1st instance with its own info.

Genie provides REST-ful application programming interfaces (APIs) to run a variety of big data jobs such as Hadoop, Pig, Hive, Spark, Presto, Sqoop and more. It also provides APIs for managing the metadata of many distributed processing clusters and the commands and applications that run on them.

From the perspective of the end user, Genie abstracts away the physical details of various (potentially transient) computational resources (like YARN, Presto, Mesos clusters, etc.). It then provides APIs to submit and monitor jobs on these clusters without users having to install any clients themselves or having to know details of the clusters and commands.

Contrast Assess is an Interactive Application Security Testing (IAST) solution that continuously detects and prioritizes vulnerabilities and guides development teams on how to eliminate risks. We discovered a vulnerability in Genie recently as part of research conducted by Contrast, using Assess.
