 Here are the five top commonly asked SQL queries in the interviews. These you can expect in Data Analyst, or, Data Engineer interviews. Top SQL Queries for Interviews 01. Joins The commonly asked question pertains to providing two tables, determining the number of rows that will return on various join types, and the resultant. Table1 -------- id ---- 1 1 2 3 Table2 -------- id ---- 1 3 1 NULL Output ------- Inner join --------------- 5 rows will return The result will be: =============== 1  1 1   1 1   1 1    1 3    3 02. Substring and Concat Here, we need to write an SQL query to make the upper case of the first letter and the small case of the remaining letter. Table1 ------ ename ===== raJu venKat kRIshna Solution: ========== SELECT CONCAT(UPPER(SUBSTRING(name, 1, 1)), LOWER(SUBSTRING(name, 2))) AS capitalized_name FROM Table1; 03. Case statement SQL Query ========= SELECT Code1, Code2,      CASE         WHEN Code1 = 'A' AND Code2 = 'AA' THEN "A" | "A

Case Study On Cloud Computing

-
The concept of cloud computing is in use for many years, but in recent years has it become a highlighted and come in picture. In the year 1990s, cloud computing was developed by major IT providers such as Sun, Microsoft, Google, and Amazon.

Cloud computing
Different products came into use for different levels of users. The most popular services for end users include web-based email systems (SaaS), e.g. AOL, Gmail, Hotmail, and Yahoo! Mail, and office applications such as Google Docs, Microsoft MS Office Online, Cloud-canvas.com, and Write.fm, etc.

 Developers can run their programs on the cloud (PaaS) like Google AppEngine, Windows Azure, and Force.com. Companies or organizations store or backup their large data on remote servers (IaaS), for example, Rackspace, Microsoft Azure, Animoto, Jungle Disk and Amazon's EC2 or S3 servers.

In 2011, the Primary Research Group (PRG) published a report of its recently conducted survey on library use of cloud computing (Primary Research Group, 2011). Participants included 70 libraries worldwide with the majority from the United States. The survey report reveals that 61.97 percent of libraries in the sample used free SaaS while 22.54 percent of libraries sampled used paid subscription SaaS; less than 3 percent of libraries surveyed used PaaS, and 4.23 percent used IaaS.

Most libraries using PaaS or IaaS had annual budgets over $5,000,000. Smaller libraries usually used the servers of their parent organizations, while libraries with multi-million dollar budgets tended to use their own servers.

  • Few case studies also show the exploration and adoption of other models of cloud computing in libraries. For example, California State University libraries have migrated their key library systems to vendors' cloud-based servers (i.e. a public cloud) and to campus IT's internally virtualized environment (i.e. a private cloud) (Wang, 2012). 
  • The Burritt Library at Central Connecticut State University used Amazon's S3 to back up their high-resolution digital objects (Iglesias, 2011). Murray State University library experimented with Dropbox for library services (Bagley, 2011). University of Arizona Libraries have migrated their ILS, Digital Libraries website, Interlibrary Loan system and repository software to cloud-based services (Han, 2010). 
  • The Z. Smith Reynolds Library in Winston Salem, NC, started to use Amazon's EC2 for hosting its website, discovery services, and digital library services in 2009 (Mitchell, 2010b).

The service model represent server administration and maintenance responsibilities are moved from local personnel to the hosting vendor, while the management of the application remains in the traditional way, i.e. librarians are still able to access the backend of the system for local customizations as if they were managing the system locally.

Explained Ideal Structure of Python Class

When you are designing a class, you need to ensure that the classification of its critical parts is outlined at the beginning. The clearer the initial design, the more performant and scalable the class is. Some of the components in the order in which they should be defined in the class are mentioned as follows. Ideal structure of a class Class variables Constants or default variables are usually defined at the top of the class. For someone who is reading the code, it comes as an easy-to-view consolidated list, and for the interpreter it ensures that all such variables are processed before diving into the main logic of the class, including any other Instance method or constructor. The __init__ method The __init__ method provides information about inputs needed and how to instantiate the class. It is also the constructor of the class, which the very first method called while initializing the class . Special Python methods These methods change the functionality of the class or provide add

Here's the command to check the list of brokers present in a Kafka Cluster. You can say the Broker is the heart of the Kafka cluster. In simple terms, it works as a process.

How to Check Available Brokers in Kafka Here is the command: linux$  ./zookeeper-shell.sh zookeeper-IPaddress:2181 | "ls /brokers/ids" Just use the above command to get the number of brokers present in your host (Kafka Cluster). What is Default Broker-id in Kafka  The default broker id is -1 . When you create a new broker, it adds to -1. Then, it gives a new broker id. The broker ids will be generated from  reserved.broker.max.id + 1. Types of broker ids. Use assigned Zookeeper generated broker id. According to Wiki: Kafka runs on a cluster of one or more servers (called brokers), and the partitions of all topics are distributed across the cluster nodes.  Additionally, partitions are replicat
