Image
 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

Three Top RPA tools functional differences

Robotic process automation is a grown-up area. Many IT developers across the board started up-skill in this popular area. This post is useful for Software developers who are interested in RPA (Robotic Process Automation).

In my previous post, I have shared twelve RPA tools. Out of those, three tools are the most popular. Those are Automation Anywhere, BluePrism, and Uipath. This post covers differences in these tools.

Blue Prism

Blue Prism has taken a simple concept, replicating user activity on the desktop, and made it enterprise strength.


The technology is scalable, secure, resilient, and flexible. It is has a comprehensive methodology, operational framework, and provided as packaged software.


The technology is developed and deployed within a corridor of IT governance. It has sophisticated error handling and process modeling capabilities to ensure it can perform at scale within demanding, highly sophisticated operating environments.


The combination of SOA/BPMS and Blue Prism platform provides almost total coverage of process automation opportunities.


'Object Studio' - where you can develop a script to automate the process. 'Process studio' - where you can test the objects that already developed in the Object studio.


The Control Room supervises the process (run and execution). Your data stores in the SQL Server database.

Automation Anywhere

The RPA tool from automation anywhere is a grown-up model, and you can find a lot of examples and material on this. The architecture comprises of Client, Bots, and Control Room. Automation Anywhere is software designed to automate virtually any computer-based process with ease. 


No programming is required. This interface makes it possible for anyone in an organization to quickly and reliably automate tasks of any complexity, including application integration, IT processes, data extraction, and migration.

It is available in Standard, Premier, Small Business, and Enterprise editions. The tool has capabilities include Task to EXE, Job scheduler, Drag-and-drop task editor, Workflow, and process mapping tools, Built-in Windows, web, and task recorders, Single-click web data extraction capabilities. 


The data storage happens in SQL express.

  3. SQL Express/SQL 2014
  4. Control room setup
  5. Client installation


UiPath

Uipath comprises of three parts - Uipath studio, Uipath Robots, and UiPath Orchestrator, 

UiPath Studio

UiPath Studio is a highly intuitive visual processing modeling tool that helps you to design the process you intend to automate without any effort. The platform offers numerous best practices templates enabling users to have complete control over the automation.

UiPath Robots

UiPath Robots has front office and back office bots that execute the processes defined by you. While the front office robot shares the interface layer with the human agent who holds control over the utilization, the back office robot works in batch mode, without any intervention.

UiPath Orchestrator

UiPath Orchestrator allows you to deploy, start, stop, and schedule processes using a console and track the activities of robots. It offers a single interface to manage multiple robots that are running in your system.

You can store data in the SQL Server/Oracle.
