CQRS is a design pattern that separates the read and write operations of a system, using different models for each.
CQRS separates the responsibility of handling commands (write operations) from queries (read operations).
It helps in achieving better scalability, performance, and maintainability by using different models for reads and writes.
For example, in a banking application, the write model may handle transactions a...
Transactions in a database ensure that a group of operations are completed successfully or rolled back if any part fails.
Transactions help maintain data integrity by ensuring all changes are either committed or rolled back as a single unit.
ACID properties (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, Durability) are maintained in transactions.
Examples of transactions include transferring money between bank accounts or booking a ...
Durability ensures that once a transaction is committed, it will persist even in the event of a system failure.
Durability guarantees that once a transaction is committed, it will not be lost even in the event of a system crash.
This is typically achieved through mechanisms like write-ahead logging and periodic checkpoints.
Examples of ACID-compliant databases that ensure durability include PostgreSQL, Oracle, and SQL Ser

Singleton pattern ensures a class has only one instance and provides a global point of access to it.
Singleton pattern can be implemented by making the constructor private and providing a static method to access the instance.
The pattern can be broken by using reflection to access the private constructor and create multiple instances.
Another way to break the Singleton pattern is by using multiple class loaders in Java.

Left Join: Returns all rows from the left table and the matched rows from the right table.
Right Join: Returns all rows from the right table and the matched rows from the left table.
Full Join: Returns rows when there is a match in one of the tables.
GROUP BY is used to group rows that have the same values into summary rows, while HAVING is used to filter groups based on a specified condition.
GROUP BY is used with aggregate functions to group the result set by one or more columns.
HAVING is used to filter groups based on a specified condition after the GROUP BY clause.
GROUP BY is used before the HAVING clause in a query.
Example: SELECT department, COUNT(*) FROM empl
DML commands are Data Manipulation Language commands used to manage data in a database.
DML commands include INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, and SELECT.
INSERT is used to add new rows of data into a table.
UPDATE is used to modify existing data in a table.
DELETE is used to remove rows of data from a table.
SELECT is used to retrieve data from a database.
Primary key uniquely identifies each record in a table, while Unique key allows only one instance of a value in a column.
Primary key does not allow NULL values, while Unique key allows one NULL value.
Primary key automatically creates a clustered index, while Unique key creates a non-clustered index by default.
Primary key can be referenced by foreign keys, while Unique key cannot be referenced by foreign keys.
Indexes are data structures that improve the speed of data retrieval operations in a database.
Indexes are used to quickly locate data without having to search every row in a database table.
Types of indexes include clustered, non-clustered, unique, and composite indexes.
Clustered indexes determine the physical order of data in a table, while non-clustered indexes store a separate copy of the indexed columns.
Unique index...
Execution plan is a roadmap that SQL Server uses to execute a query, showing the steps taken to retrieve data.
Execution plan is generated by the query optimizer to determine the most efficient way to execute a query.
It shows the order in which tables are accessed, joins are performed, and filters are applied.
