Rough Draft , Notes

Should we use foreign keys?
Pro:
 Referential integrity
Cons:
Performance hit

But the performance hit is only when there are a lot of foregin keys. Because for each row inserted,updated,deleted other tables would also be checked
However, foregin keys helps in optimizing queries and increase reading speed
By default indexes aren't created on foreign keys.

Jackson Json: How to prevent field serialization?
@JsonIgnore or mark the field as transient

Jacson Json vs Gson
Jackson seems to be winning the race. It has a lot of benefits over Gson and performance is also better.
Spring has default support of jackson.

What's the use of identityhashmap?
It's use is rare, it's used when objects are to be compared via reference equality == and not equals method. Thus, it kinds of break map equals contract ,

Redis:
 Pipelining can give a big performance boost
Pipelining is used to save RTT(Round trip time), pipelining is nothing but a series of commands sent as one
Redis provides transactions to execute a series of commands
Write MULTI to start, now all the commands will be put in queue, enter EXEC to execute all or DISCARD to discard all. In case something went wrong in between rest will be executed. NO ROLLBACK. Redis supports NO ROLLBACK

Redis scripts are transactional by definition, in future transactions might be deprecated and only scripts will be used.

Redis Memory setting
in redis.conf: maxmemory 100mb, setting it to 0 means no limit, when limit has reached there can be several different eviction policies, noeviction, lru, volatile-lru, etc
Redis doesn't uses true lru,  only apprroximation, a set of keys, to save memory, however setting of sample size can be changed

Redis Cluster
In redis cluster, single db is available, operations involving multiple keys might not be avialable
supports upto 1000 nodes

AngularJs - Done

AngularJS
What is a SPA?

Single page application (SPA) is a web application that fits on a single page. All your code (JS, HTML, CSS) is recovered with a single page stack. Further more, route between pages performed without invigorating the entire page.

Advantages of SPA:

1.No page flicker. Native application feel.

2.Client side routing and data rendering on client side.

3.Data is from server is in JSON format.

Coming to the questions

1.Why angular is called a single page application?

Answer: Angular Js is full featured SPA framework,with the help of which single page application is created. In the SPA whole page is not reloaded every time,every time view will be change

So when you load the application for the first time not all the pages from the server will be rendered..Its only index.html that loads when you load the application.Since only single page is loaded it is called as SPA

2.Even if the url changes in angular site will it be called as spa?

Answer:Basically url changes are done through routing. Routing in AngularJS is implemented by including <ng-view> or <ui-view> in your index.html page with out refreshing the entire page

So when the url changes it not the entire index.html that changes , only part of the html in ng-view or ui-view is switched between views

3.Is all the site created using angular are really a single page application? If not why?

Answer:Yes. All the sites created with angular are SPA's. Angular JS is defined on SPA framework.

1. Can the angular application be initialized on only HTML element or ANY element?
   Ans: ANY element
2. Can an HTML page have multiple “ng-app” directive for bootstrapping multiple AngularJS application?
   Ans: Yes
3. With more than one ng-app in an HTML document (an HTML page), are they automatically initialized? Describe the angularJS application initialization process with multiple ng-app in an HTML document/page.
   Ans: Only one AngularJS application can be auto-bootstrapped. The first ‘ng-app’ found in the document will be used to define the root element to auto-bootstrap as an application. To run multiple applications in an HTML document, one must manually bootstrap them using angular bootstrap service.
4. Describe the steps involved in bootstrapping an angular application?
   Ans: Following steps are involved in bootstrapping the angular application:
   • Determine the element consisting of ng prefixes with “app”
   • Check whethar an angular app already exists on the element
   • Compile & link with the help of dependencies such as rootScope injected (used for linking).
5. Can angular applications (ng-app) be nested within each other?
   Ans: No
6. What are various possible prefixes such as “ng-” using which Angular directives (for example, ng-app) can be defined?
   Ans: “ng-“, “data-ng-“, “ng:”, “x-ng-“
7. What are various possible ways in which angular application can be initialized?
   Ans: On an element, one could either put simply the attribute such as (ng-app, data-ng-app, ng:app, x-ng-app) or put the named attribute such as (ng-app=”demoApp”).
8. What angular function is used to manually start up an angular application?
   Ans: angular.bootstrap
9. Can multiple angular applications be bootstrapped using same element?
   Ans: No. An error is thrown such as “App Already Bootstrapped with this Element”
10. At framework level, how does Angular retrieve the matching elements for processing?
    Ans: Makes use of jqLite(element) function. If jQuery is used, jQuery(element) is used by way of assigning jQuery to jqLite variable.>

Java 8+ - Done

Why we can't do subtyping in generics?

Why generics array can't be created?


What are the new features in Java 8?
-foreach,spliterator in interable interface

What is Spliterator?

What is Consumer interface?

What is Predicate interface?

What is functional interface?
An interface with exactly one abstract method becomes Functional Interface.

What is the use of functional interface?
It's greate to use it in lambda expressions.

What are Single Abstract Method interfaces(SAM)?

default vs static in interface?
We can't override static. static is indeed static, it isn't inherited, can be used directly with Interface name. So, now interface can contain static methods.

What is the use of @FunctionalInterface annotation?
We don’t need to use @FunctionalInterface annotation to mark an interface as Functional Interface. @FunctionalInterface annotation is a facility to avoid accidental addition of abstract methods in the functional interfaces. You can think of it like @Override annotation and it’s best practice to use it. 

What is map reduce?
map function transforms input like doubling each value, reduce function convert list to some value like average,sum,etc.
