Telecom companies provide five kinds of services. Those are Voice, Data, Toll-free, internet, and wireless. The given Telecom domain knowledge helpful for data analysis projects. 5 Top Telecom Services. Voice Toll-free Data service Internet Wireless  Telecom Domain Knowledge Useful for IT developers, Data Analysts, and Software Testers   In addition to the above, the latest services are Internet and wireless. Domain knowledge is crucial to design and develop the code. 1. Voice service This is the standard phone service that you have been using since the first time you called your Grandma to thank her for a birthday present. You need voice service. 2. Toll-free service A toll-free number is a special-number; that enables calls to come in from anywhere without incurring a charge to the caller. The called party pays a toll tariff for the Call.

HBASE: Top Features in Storing Big data

Image
In this post explained top features added in HBase to handle the data. The Java implementation of Google's Big Table you can call it as HBASE.  In HBase, the data store as two parts. Row Key : 00001 Column : (Column Qualifier:Version:Value) Features of HBASE HBase data stores consist of one or more tables, which are indexed by row keys. Data is stored in rows with columns, and rows can have multiple versions. By default, data versioning for rows is implemented with time stamps. Columns are grouped into column families, which must be defined upfront during table creation. Column families are stored together on disk, which is why HBase is referred to as a column-oriented datastore New features of HBASE check now In addition... HBase is a distributed data store, which leverages a network-attached cluster of low-cost commodity servers to store and persist data. HBase architecture is a little trick to know. Region Servers... RegionServers are the software p

Python: How to Write Logic to Print Triangle

Here's an example to print Triangle in Python. It's the best interview question. You can expect this type of question in your interview. So this is useful to practice it. How to Print Triangle Logic to Print Trianagle max = 8 for x in range(1, max + 1): for y in range(1, x + 1): print y, print Result 1 1 2 1 2 3 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8   Also, Read Python while loop Python for loop example

Python: Do While Loop Real Examples

Image
While it is one of the loops in Python. The specialty is it never be false. You already know that in my previous post I have shared For Loop in Python . The for loop can be false. I am giving here one best example: print("Help! My computer doesn't work!") while True: print("Does the computer make any sounds (fans, etc.)") choice = input(" or show any lights? (y/n):") In the above logic, while is always true. When in input user can give 'Y/N'. if choice == 'n': # The computer does not have power print (" Do not show lights") if choice == 'y': # It is power plugged in print ("show lights") So, while is always true. Based on input the while loop works. Python is having the below list of Keywords. Pythons Reserved Words The Python reserved words are: and, exec, not, assert, finally, or, break, for, pass, class, form, print, continue, global, raise, def, if,

Python Advanced For Loop With Example

Basically, For Loop reads input value and stores in a variable. So For Loop in Python needs two arguments. The two arguments are VARIABLE and IN. So far so good. The next part of the article and examples well explained how it works and how to get the index for each input supplied.
