OOP is based on four main principles: Encapsulation, Abstraction, Inheritance, and Polymorphism, each with real-life analogies.
Encapsulation: A car's engine is hidden from the driver; they only interact with the steering wheel and pedals.
Abstraction: A TV remote allows users to control the TV without needing to understand its internal workings.
Inheritance: A child inherits traits from their parents, like eye color...
Abstract classes can have both abstract and concrete methods, while interfaces can only have abstract methods (Java 8+ allows default methods).
Abstract classes can have instance variables; interfaces cannot.
A class can extend only one abstract class but can implement multiple interfaces.
Abstract classes can provide default behavior, while interfaces require implementing classes to define behavior.
Example: 'abstrac...
CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) is a stylesheet language used to describe the presentation of HTML documents.
CSS controls layout, colors, fonts, and overall visual appearance of web pages.
It separates content (HTML) from design, making maintenance easier.
CSS rules consist of selectors and declarations, e.g., 'h1 { color: blue; }'.
Styles can be applied inline, internally (within <style> tags), or externally (via...
SQL joins combine rows from two or more tables based on related columns, enabling complex queries and data retrieval.
INNER JOIN: Returns records with matching values in both tables. Example: SELECT * FROM A INNER JOIN B ON A.id = B.id;
LEFT JOIN (or LEFT OUTER JOIN): Returns all records from the left table and matched records from the right table. Example: SELECT * FROM A LEFT JOIN B ON A.id = B.id;
RIGHT JOIN (or R...
A primary key uniquely identifies a record in a table, while a foreign key links records between two tables.
Primary Key: Uniquely identifies each record in a table. Example: 'user_id' in a 'Users' table.
Foreign Key: A field in one table that links to the primary key of another table. Example: 'user_id' in 'Orders' table referencing 'Users'.
Primary keys cannot contain NULL values, while foreign keys can.
A table can...
A string is a sequence of characters used to represent text in Java, immutable and widely used in programming.
Strings in Java are objects of the String class.
They are immutable, meaning once created, their values cannot be changed. Example: String str = "Hello"; str = str + " World!"; // creates a new string.
Strings can be created using string literals or the 'new' keyword. Example: String str1 = "Hello"; String s...
The transient keyword in Java prevents serialization of certain class fields, ensuring sensitive data isn't saved.
Used in serialization to indicate that a field should not be serialized.
Example: If a class has a field marked as transient, its value won't be saved when the object is serialized.
Commonly used for sensitive information like passwords or temporary data.
Syntax: 'transient int tempValue;' prevents 'tempV...
Delivery challenges include scope changes, resource constraints, and stakeholder communication issues.
Scope Creep: Unexpected changes in project requirements can derail timelines. For example, a client may request additional features mid-project.

I appeared for an interview in Feb 2025, where I was asked the following questions.
I struggle with expressing my answers confidently, even when I know them to be correct.
I often second-guess my responses during discussions, fearing they may be incorrect.
In team meetings, I hesitate to share my ideas, even when I have valuable insights.
For example, during a recent project, I had a solution but didn't voice it, leading to delays.
I am working on this by practicing assertiveness and seeking feedback from...

DS in Splunk stands for Data Source.
DS refers to the source of data that is being indexed and analyzed in Splunk.
Common data sources in Splunk include log files, metrics, and events from various systems and applications.

streamstats: used to calculate statistics on the events in the search results, but the results are added as new fie...
In Splunk, the priority of files is determined by the order in which they are indexed.
Files are indexed based on the inputs.conf configuration file.
Priority can be set using the 'disabled' attribute in inputs.conf.
Files with higher priority are indexed first.
Priority can also be influenced by the order of stanzas in inputs.conf.

Editing data in complex views can affect underlying tables, but it depends on the view's structure and rules.
Complex views often involve joins, aggregations, or groupings, making them non-updatable.
If a view is updatable, changes made to it will reflect in the underlying tables.
Example: A simple view on a single table can be updated directly.
Example: A view that aggregates data (e.g., SUM, COUNT) cannot be updated dire...
