Here\'s the structural method I followed to navigate the scenario and along with the specific steps to innovate or create a new path. So understand the problem deeply. Start with a thorough analysis of the problem. Understand all the aspects and parameters involved and gather as much information as possible. Then engage the stakeholder, include customer, team members and domain experts to gain different perspective and insight. Then use techniques like five-wise or fused-bones diagram to identify the root cause of the issue rather than just adhering to the symptoms. Then do the research and benchmarking. Research the existing solution in a related field or industry that might have a similar problem. This can provide inspiration and partial solutions. Compare the current situation with the similar scenario in other parts. Produce products to understand what worked and what didn\'t. Then do the brainstorming and ideations or conduct brainstorming sessions with the team to generate a wide range of ideas including street thinking and work criticism during this phase to foster creativity. Then use mind mapping to visualize organized ideas and explore connection between different concepts. Then prototyping experimentation so develop good prototype to test out the most promising idea. This helps in understanding the feasibility and potential impact on the solution. Conduct control exam to validate the hypothesis. Use A-B testing or split testing where applicable to compare the effectiveness of different approaches. Then leverage the cross-discipline knowledge. Cross-discipline approach to supply the knowledge and techniques from other disciplines or domains. For example, we bring principles from data science, machine learning and even other different like biology or economics can offer fresh perspectives. Combine elements from different traditional approaches which can help with solving issues that leverage the strength of each. Then implement solution interoperability in the design practice.

Now in that also we have implemented two RROs, one is for vehicle brand like for Nissan there is one RRO and for Renault there is another RRO. So at runtime it will like enable and disable, it will change the application name like telematics application name. So after many research and POC, we found that this can be the way. So final way we find out that one string ID and two different string names in different RROs will resolve the issue. So that kind of issues we faced and we have resolved.\n', 'One complex coding problem I solved using Kotlin involved optimizing the performance of the Conman application. We needed to move long-running tasks, such as file I/O operations, off the main thread to improve responsiveness. To achieve this, we utilized Kotlin coroutines with the `Dispatchers.IO` context to handle these tasks asynchronously, ensuring that the main thread remained available for UI updates.\n\nAnother challenging issue arose with the telematics feature, where we needed to change the application name and package name at runtime. This change had to be reflected in the system settings, displaying the updated name for the installed application.\n\nAfter extensive research and trials, we discovered that Runtime Resource Overlays (RROs) could be used to overlay strings at runtime. We implemented two RROs: one for the Nissan brand and another for Renault. By enabling and disabling these RROs at runtime, we could dynamically change the application name.\n\nThe solution involved defining a single string ID with different string values in the two RROs. When the brand changed, the corresponding RRO was activated, updating the application name accordingly. This approach required significant experimentation and proof of concept work, but ultimately, it resolved the issue effectively.\n\nThis experience enhanced my problem-solving skills and deepened my understanding of Kotlin\'s capabilities, particularly in handling asynchronous tasks and dynamic resource management.', '8', 'Ajay\'s response provides a good example of a complex coding problem he solved using Kotlin, particularly mentioning the use of coroutines for performance optimization.

When a user initiated an e-call, the request first required authorization by the platform to ensure the correct user was identified. This user authorization was handled by a service called iKeyLink Manager, which verified the user\'s credentials.\n\nOnce authorized, the request was sent to the Camrion server, hosted on AWS. The Camrion server then initiated the e-call to Nissan\'s assistance services. Similarly, for other types of calls, like breakdown or maintenance calls, the process involved communication between the Nissan assistance services, the Camrion server, and the WinX server, which relayed the information back to the vehicle.\n\nDuring this project, we encountered challenges related to the seamless integration of these services.

To address this, I extensively utilized Android Studio.\n\n1. **Android Studio:** I started by implementing and debugging the code within Android Studio. The built-in debugger allowed me to set breakpoints and step through the code to identify the source of the issue. Additionally, I used the Logcat feature to filter and analyze logs, which provided valuable insights into the root cause of the crashes.\n\n2. **ADB (Android Debug Bridge):** To further investigate, I employed ADB commands. For example, I used `adb shell` to access the device\'s file system and examine different partitions. This enabled me to check configuration files and logs directly on the device. I also used `adb logcat` to capture real-time logs, which were crucial for understanding the sequence of events leading up to the crash.\n\n3. **Gradle:** Gradle played a vital role in managing the build process. I used Gradle tasks like `assembleDebug` to build the application in debug mode, making troubleshooting easier. Moreover, I managed dependencies through Gradle, ensuring that all necessary libraries were included and up-to-date. This was particularly important when we needed to add or update SDK dependencies to resolve compatibility issues.\n\nBy combining these tools, I was able to identify the problem, which stemmed from a specific third-party library causing conflicts.

Without writing code, can you please explain your approach to identifying and resolving this issue?', 'Okay, so first of all I need to find out the cause why the application is using significant amount of memory and because of that the battery drainage system issue is occurred. So first of all I need to find the root cause using logs or by doing multiple test cases like what is the exit scenario where this kind of issue is occurred. So I will do multiple test cases, I will do multiple test, manual test, I will go through the logs then I will find the root cause. In order to resolve okay if still the root cause is not found then I will go through my code where I used the resources like if I use let\'s say in my application camera is used so obviously camera is using more battery than other components. There are other components also which uses battery but camera is like using more that I know. So in that context I will check if my application is closing or releasing the resource at a time after particular time or not. Like if the resource is idle and still my application is using then in order to improve the performance and reduce the battery usage I need to release the resources after particular usage like if my application has the feature to like click the photo. So after clicking photo the camera resource should be released. So I will check this kind of resources used in my code and it is released after particular time or not. So threading is also major like significant component like if my application runs on multiple threads at a time and it uses many CPU like multiple CPU cores at a time then I need to like reduce the multithreading and try some other way to optimize that kind of scenarios.

Here’s how I would tackle it:\n\nFirst, I would analyze the logs to identify any patterns or specific scenarios where the battery drain occurs. This involves running multiple test cases and conducting manual tests to consistently reproduce the issue.\n\nIf the logs do not reveal the root cause, I would review the application\'s resource usage. Components like the camera, GPS, or network can significantly impact battery life, so I would check if these resources are being properly managed. For example, if the camera is used, I would ensure it is released immediately after the photo is taken.\n\nNext, I would examine whether there are any background services or tasks running unnecessarily. Optimizing background processes to run only when needed can help reduce battery consumption.\n\nIf the application uses multiple threads, I would assess their management. Excessive or poorly managed multithreading can lead to high CPU usage, which drains the battery. I would look for opportunities to reduce the number of active threads or optimize their execution.\n\nAdditionally, I would check if the application is using wake locks correctly. Wake locks should be used sparingly and released as soon as they are no longer needed to prevent the device from staying awake unnecessarily.\n\nFinally, tools like Android Studio\'s Battery Profiler can provide insights into battery usage patterns and help pinpoint the components consuming the most power.\n\nBy following these steps, I can systematically identify and address the factors contributing to battery drain, ensuring the application is optimized for better battery performance.', '6', 'Ajay\'s response outlines a general approach to identifying and resolving battery drain issues, including testing, log analysis, and resource management.

Then after sometime 2-3 months later, I was able to manage 1 or 2 person and their technical issues along with my technical implementation and my tasks. So like that, I am able to manage a team of 2-3. Later I moved to convent feature, there at starting only I am able to manage 2-3 people. So currently I am in radio feature, where my team size is 10. And we are doing 2 ongoing projects, one is CCS2 which works on Android 12, another one is Evo which is on Android 14. So these 2 ongoing projects we need to handle, we need to handle their implementation, bug fixing and all. So by keeping track of all bugs, current bugs, by keeping track of ongoing activities like new spec adaption or new spec requirement or by continuously getting in touch with client for the latest status of these activities or getting knowledge of new requirement from the client and spreading it into my team. These are the roles of mine currently and also along with that I need to check for bug fixing and bug triaging. So this is how I am contributing to my team.

So these kind of contributions I need to make along with my development tasks.\n', 'Fostering creativity and innovation within a team environment is essential for the success of any project. Here’s an example of how I contributed to creating such an environment:\n\nWhen I joined the telematics team, I initially worked as an individual contributor focused on development tasks. Over time, I began managing a small team of 2-3 members, assisting them with their technical issues while continuing my own work. This experience taught me the importance of collaboration and mentorship.\n\nLater, I transitioned to the Conman feature, where I managed a slightly larger team. Currently, I am working on the radio feature with a team of 10 members, overseeing two ongoing projects: CCS2 on Android 12 and Evo on Android 14.\n\nTo foster creativity and innovation, I implemented several practices:\n\n1. Open Communication: I encouraged open communication within the team, creating an environment where everyone felt comfortable sharing their ideas and suggestions. Regular team meetings and brainstorming sessions helped us explore new approaches and solutions.\n\n2. Knowledge Sharing: I made it a point to promptly share any new requirements or updates from the client with the team. This ensured that everyone was on the same page and could contribute their insights on how to implement these changes effectively.\n\n3. Mentorship and Support: By providing guidance and support to team members, I helped them overcome technical challenges and grow their skills. This not only improved individual performance but also boosted the overall team\'s creativity and problem-solving capabilities.\n\n4. Encouraging Experimentation: I encouraged the team to experiment with new technologies and methodologies. For instance, when we needed to adapt to new specifications, I supported the team in exploring different approaches and creating proof of concepts (POCs) to test their ideas.\n\n5. Cross-Functional Collaboration: I facilitated cross-functional team meetings to ensure that we were aligned with other teams and could leverage their expertise. This collaboration often sparked new ideas and innovative solutions.\n\nBy fostering a collaborative and supportive environment, I was able to contribute to the team\'s creativity and innovation, leading to successful project outcomes and continuous improvement.', '6', 'Ajay\'s response highlights his progression from an individual contributor to a team manager, indicating his growing responsibilities and the scale of projects he has managed.

Here’s how I manage such situations:\n\nFirst, I evaluate both the established process and the innovative approach, analyzing how each method impacts the end product while considering factors like performance, maintainability, and scalability.\n\nIf feasible, I create a proof of concept (POC) for the innovative approach to demonstrate its potential benefits and risks. This helps in making an informed decision based on tangible results.\n\nNext, I compare the outcomes of both approaches. If the innovative method shows significant advantages without compromising the project\'s stability, it becomes a strong contender. However, if the established process proves to be more reliable, it may be the safer choice.\n\nWhen the decision is not clear-cut, I consult with managers, team members, and clients. Presenting both solutions and their potential impacts allows for a collaborative decision-making process. Their insights and experience can guide us in choosing the best path forward.\n\nAdditionally, when opting for the innovative approach, I ensure that we have a backup plan. Keeping the established solution as a fallback option provides a safety net in case the new method encounters unforeseen issues.\n\nFinally, I document the rationale behind the chosen approach and closely monitor its implementation. This ensures that any deviations or challenges are promptly addressed, and lessons learned are recorded for future reference.\n\nBy carefully weighing the pros and cons of each approach and maintaining open communication with stakeholders, I can strike a balance between following established processes and embracing innovation. This methodical approach allows for thoughtful risk-taking while ensuring project stability and success.', '6', 'Ajay\'s response shows that he understands the importance of evaluating both established and innovative approaches and the need to take risks carefully.

Okay, so what we do is like We source the data. We source the data via the EP of our sources like Consider there is a news channel. Okay, they give us the data, they are the source. So we hit their EPI put their data to our kinesis from there the trigger base lambda get invocated and transform the data so for the cost optimization for the scalability purpose and also for the faster processing of the data. We are going to transform all this pipeline into the Kafka and Apache teams Apache data pipeline. So what we are going to do is like we gonna set up a Kafka cluster We have set up a Kafka cluster basically So we gonna ask our source to put all the data to a Kafka topic in our required topic They will put their data. Okay from there the Apache team will take that data and transform that data So this is how the Kafka gets into picture. Okay, why Kafka comes into picture is because of the cost optimization, performance the scalability and all those stuffs are there for the Kafka team. Okay, so we have involved Kafka in that sense Apart from that we are going to create some dashboard for the analysis purpose for that we gonna put some analytics and consumption logs to the Kafka, how much data we are consuming What kind of a data we are consuming.

At Onclusive, we implemented Kafka for data stream processing, sourcing information from various channels, including news outlets. These sources provide their data through APIs, which we then send into our Kinesis stream. From Kinesis, Lambda functions are triggered to transform the data.\n\nTo optimize costs, enhance scalability, and achieve faster processing, we transitioned to Kafka and Apache Beam. We established a Kafka cluster and directed our sources to publish data to specific Kafka topics. Apache Beam then processes and transforms the data from these topics.\n\nWe utilize Kafka for its performance, scalability, and cost benefits. Additionally, Kafka supports our analytics and monitoring efforts. We push logs of data consumption and the types of data consumed to Kafka topics, enabling us to create dashboards for improved analysis and visualization.\n\nOverall, Kafka plays a crucial role in our data pipeline.', '6', 'Bhushan\'s response provides a detailed explanation of how Kafka is used in his current role, including the rationale for its implementation and the benefits it offers.

(417, 69, 35, 413, 100, 'Please share your insights on using MQTT or HTTP protocols for real-time data communication. How did you ensure the reliability and efficiency of these protocols in your projects?', 'Okay, for HTTP protocol, we are using in terms of where we need to communicate to any certain endpoints So let\'s say HTTPS we are using basically the secure protocol. Okay, so when when I say that we are using the Elasticsearch clusters, okay, that needs an endpoint to be connected with okay And that in point is hosted as a secure way and we are connecting to it with the help of username and password Okay, so basically when When we have set up that Elasticsearch cluster, we have set up that into the Kubernetes So each node or each part of Elasticsearch is acting as a single node in the machine So all of this cluster needs to be connected to the service or that will be on the load balancer on the AWS side basically that needs to be Hosted somewhere in the route 53 so that you will be able to get access to it Okay, so what we do is like we created and we created a service that connects to all these nodes Okay, that reads data that puts data whatever the operations are there that service helps us In this service, we have to connect an ingress. Ingress will act as an internal load balancer for all of our for all of our nodes and all of our clusters. So in this cluster we will access the internal load balancer application in the AWS. Internal load balancer will be connected to the certificate HTTP means secure protocol certificate and also it will be connected to the Route 53 and DNS entries that we have to make. So that\'s how we are using HTTP or HTTPS protocol for our data communication with Elasticsearch. Also, we are using this HTTPS protocols to our API that is explicitly Made for the different clients that we are hosted on the Lambda Okay, so that Lambda is being connected to the API gateway. API gateway is act as a Act as an intermediary between Lambda and the client. So whatever the request comes to API gateway It will be given to the Lambda that will process the request and revert back to the client with the appropriate response So this in this way API gateway also act as an HTTP creates an HTTP protocols Protocols to connect to your client to your database So basically that\'s where we are using HTTP as HTTP protocols for our data use cases Okay, again, how do we make sure? The data integrity with it is because we are sure we keep the logs. Basically it checks every Parameter that needs to come here that needs to be common that needs to go from our system We have that kind of a mechanism that validates the data. Is it correct or not? So based on that we make sure the data integrity that we are giving out of this Protocol is correct and it has a secure HTTPS site is a certificate We are reliable on it\n', 'I would like to share some insights on using MQTT and HTTP protocols. For real-time data communication, we utilize HTTP and HTTPS protocols, which ensure secure communication.\n\nFor example, when connecting to Elasticsearch clusters, we use HTTPS. Each Elasticsearch node, hosted in Kubernetes, functions as an individual unit. These nodes connect to a service through a secure endpoint that requires a username and password. This service, managed by an internal load balancer, is hosted on AWS Route 53, ensuring secure and reliable communication.\n\nAdditionally, for our APIs hosted on AWS Lambda, we also employ HTTPS protocols. The API Gateway acts as an intermediary between the client and Lambda. It receives requests from the client and forwards them to Lambda, which processes and responds to these requests.\n\nTo maintain reliability and efficiency, we keep logs and validate every parameter to ensure data integrity. We use secure HTTPS certificates to guarantee the reliability and security of our communications. As a result, our data communication protocols are both dependable and efficient.', '6', 'Bhushan\'s response provides a detailed explanation of how HTTP and HTTPS protocols are used in his projects, particularly with Elasticsearch and AWS services. He discusses the setup of secure connections and the use of API Gateway as an intermediary.

(418, 69, 35, 413, 100, 'Could you please describe a project where you were responsible for real-time data processing and the challenges you faced during its implementation?', 'Okay, real-time data processing and the challenges that we face. So when it comes to the processing of the real-time data, we mostly face the challenge of processing time, the performance of our processors or the executors. So what we do basically for that, okay, let me give an example of what we have done, okay. So basically, we pull the data from the folders, put that data to Kinesis. So now from there, we have to make sure that data is being processed in a particular time or it should be processed in near real-time, basically. So we make sure that the concurrency of the Lambda is accurate, okay, and whatever the records is getting processed, it should be processed once, okay, and that\'s how we measurely say that the data is being processed at a near real-time to real-time. So let me give an example in terms of Lambdas that we are running, okay, once the data comes to the Kinesis, okay, from there, we can set the batch, okay, batch of 25, let\'s say, 25 articles to be processed in a single Lambda. So it will reduce the timing of like a spinning if your Lambdas and the connections that you make and the global variables that you make. So at that way, you can tackle a challenge of data-getting process in a slower process. Again, the challenge was like within this time range, we have to send it to Elasticsearch and send it to a different process like for the Kafka log consumption, okay. So what we have to do like we have to process this data, process this 25 articles to Elasticsearch and then we process like a 50 logs for this 25 articles, one log has started when we start processing the article at a time and one when we completed processing this article, we send two logs for each of the articles. So it will be around 50 logs for 25 articles and that time how we are doing like we are selecting all of those logs in a list and when pushing this log to the Kafka, we are pushing in a batches. So when we push it, we will push it in a batch but Kafka will take it as a single article, okay. So we will flush those 25 articles or 20, sorry, we will flush that 50 records or 50 logs in a batches, let\'s say the batch of 25 each. So at a time, 25 batches, 25 logs will be flushed and your Kafka queue, internal Kafka content, Kafka mentors and internal queue that will be pushed to the, that will get flushed at a time. So it will reduce the time of connection to the Kafka and it will also make sure the records have been pushed successfully. Apart from that, in Elasticsearch what we do is like we can update record one by one but we don\'t do that. What we do is like we bulk push those records in the Elasticsearch. It will reduce your time to connect to the Elasticsearch and it will also helps you reduce the repetitive way of pushing to the Elasticsearch. So basically batching thing that we have, basically the performance thing that was the major challenge and in a batching way and in a parallel way that we have optimized and that\'s how the challenge has been solved.\n', 'I would like to share my experience with a project focused on real-time data processing. At Onclusive, I managed real-time data and encountered several challenges throughout the process.\n\nOne major task involved processing data from Kinesis in near real-time. It was essential to ensure timely processing while maintaining high performance. We optimized the concurrency of AWS Lambda functions and implemented data batching to improve efficiency. For example, we processed 25 articles in a single Lambda function, which significantly reduced the overhead associated with launching multiple Lambdas.\n\nAnother challenge we faced was sending the processed data to Elasticsearch and Kafka. We generated logs for each article—one at the beginning and one at the end. By batching these logs and sending them to Kafka in groups of 25, we enhanced both efficiency and timeliness. This approach minimized connection times and ensured successful log submissions.\n\nFor Elasticsearch, we utilized bulk operations to push records. Instead of updating records one by one, we sent them in bulk, which decreased connection times and repetitive tasks.\n\nBy optimizing concurrency, batching data, and employing bulk operations, we effectively addressed the challenges of real-time data processing, leading to a more efficient and reliable system.', '7', 'Bhushan\'s response provides a detailed account of his experience with real-time data processing, including specific examples of challenges and solutions related to Lambda concurrency, Elasticsearch, and Kafka batching.

(419, 69, 35, 413, 100, 'I noticed you\'ve worked on data pipeline development. Can you please walk me through a complex pipeline you\'ve developed and how you ensured its scalability and maintainability?', 'Okay, there are multiple pipelines that I have been worked on till now. So consider a complete pipeline of polling the data, transforming the data, enhancing the data and pushing that to the Elasticsearch. This is a complete one single pipeline that I have been working on. So what we do, a complete pipeline that I have been working through, there are a lot of pipelines, but this is one kind of example to look, what we do, each interval, this Python script is running on AWS ECS, that is Elastic Container Service that pulls the data at a certain interval of time, that push 500 articles to the Kinesis. Now we process that data, process that data based on the Lambda data. In that processing, we transform that data into totally different formats. That format has been completely supported by us, because we have hundreds of sources and hundreds of sources will not give us the data in a particular format that we want. So we do that at our own side, data transformation, data validation and all those stuff will be done with the base of Event-Based Triggered Lambda. Now that will firstly segregate the useful data, if any data is not useful, then we will scrap the data. And based on the field mapping and the validations, we will map the data, transform if required in a different kind of a field or in a different kind of a data type, we will transform that data. And then there are some enhancement needs to be done. So for that, what we do is we keep this data transformed to a different Kinesis, from there another Triggered-Based Lambda, Event-Based Lambda get triggered, there we do enhancement. We add publications, we add licenses, we add validations or the owner of the data, all those things we add and from there we will push that data to the Elasticsearch. So this is the pipeline that, this is one of the complex pipelines that we have worked. Again, in the enhancement of data, some of the fields are coming like an author, that is coming from the DynamoDB. We push, pull that data from the DynamoDB and append that into the articles. And this DynamoDB is not getting filled directly, we are filling that author\'s details from somewhere else, that is a different pipeline running in, but those Dynamo details or the DynamoDB author fields are appended internally in our own enhancement fields. And after that, we will push that data to Elasticsearch. Parallelly, that data goes for percolation, percolates from where you will get the articles. So percolate cluster works over there that creates, generates the query from your article. So there as well it works. Another pipeline that I am working on is like in a beam pipeline. So basically, when all the data, when the source push the data to a Kafka topic, on the Kafka topic of consumer or executors working, that executors are paralleling, multiple executors are working parallelly based on group IDs on all those stuff. Okay. So what we will do is like we paste the data in a pipeline, basically in a groups or in a batch. Okay. What we\'ll do, we do segregated data and we transform that data in a different, different way. Okay. So basically, all the things, the enhancement, all those things done in the pipeline only and this will be sent to a different Kafka topic. There will be a failure of our data. If any failure, we will send that data to DLQ. That is dead data. Okay. But we\'ll take example of the pass or the good example, like a good flow only. Okay. Once this data is getting processed, processed successfully, we push that data to a different topic. From there, our esync application works. That is a man, that is a flink, that is a beam again, Apache flink and Apache beam application again. Okay. That pulls the data, this data. It takes the data in which, what kind of a data it is and push that data to that kind of index. That kind of index is a elastic system. So all this thing, all this enhancement and all this transformation has been done into this pipeline. This is the complex pipeline that we are working together.\n', 'I will guide you through a complex data pipeline. I have worked on many pipelines, but this one is particularly intricate.\n\nConsider a pipeline designed for polling, transforming, enhancing, and pushing data to Elasticsearch. This pipeline, which operates on AWS ECS, pulls data at regular intervals, sending 500 articles to Kinesis. From Kinesis, Lambda functions process and transform this data, as it must be converted into different formats due to the varied sources.\n\nFirst, we segregate the useful data, validating and mapping fields while transforming data types as necessary. Next, we enhance the data. A second Lambda function, triggered by events, adds details such as publications, licenses, and ownership. We also retrieve additional information, like author details, from DynamoDB. Finally, we push the enhanced data to Elasticsearch.\n\nSimultaneously, this data undergoes percolation, generating queries from the articles. Another complex pipeline involves Apache Beam and Kafka. Source data is pushed to a Kafka topic and consumed by parallel executors. The data is processed in batches, transformed, and enhanced within the pipeline. Successfully processed data is sent to a different Kafka topic, while failures are directed to a Dead Letter Queue (DLQ).\n\nAn application using Apache Flink and Beam pulls this processed data and indexes it in Elasticsearch. By utilizing batching, parallel processing, and robust error handling, these pipelines ensure scalability and maintainability.\n\nThus, our data pipelines are both complex and efficient.', '7', 'Bhushan\'s response is highly detailed, explaining the steps involved in a complex data pipeline from polling to pushing data to Elasticsearch.

Okay, we I have identified this similar kind of an issue in my recent project. Okay, recent workflow. Okay, where we were losing an occasional message means it was it was it was a different fault.

Okay, or in the topic, how much offset has been raised. And all these things we can check again, the size of data, the replication factor, all this we can also check. Okay, we can keep it as a safety for the safety as a replication factor, we will be really helpful.

Can you please find out so based on that we will do all these record is being ever inserted into Kafka stream. So we will for sure get somewhere as an acknowledgement that the data has been processed to the Kafka topic that we can look in.

First might be the case of failure of the data or the data that incoming data is too huge. Okay, so we need to identify those things first. First thing will be like, let\'s take an example, if we are getting any failures, okay, let\'s say your data is getting filled and it\'s been pushed to the BLQ, for sure that is consuming, that will be taking a lot of time to for the failures to come back to your executor or you need to change, if that has been handled correctly or not, okay, again, the issue in the same way will be like, we might be enhancing some of the data with some API with some endpoints or we will be pushing the data to the certain endpoints, okay, on certain database clusters. So we need to check that, are those taking an optimal time or are those taking a required time or what, the time duration, we can check that, okay, from logs, we can definitely get that. Again, there will be case that we might be receiving a lot of data from our source side that the data has been pushed a lot in the last hour.

(423, 69, 35, 413, 100, 'In your work with SQL/NoSQL databases, can you provide an example of a particularly challenging data transformation or storage problem you solved?', 'OK. Particularly with the storage problem that I solved, I have told in my introduction that I\'ve been working since from six months, five months to six months, with the Elasticsearch, setting up Elasticsearch with Kubernetes. So the thing was, we need a local SSD for the faster retrieval of data. Or any EBS volume block or the network storage block would not be here for the faster retrieval of data. So the major challenge was to create a storage class for this, because it was not given in the Kubernetes to get a local storage with whatever the present storage classes. GP3, GP2, all those are for the EBS blocks, and that cannot be used. So basically, what we have to do is we have to go for a third-party solution that will be an open EBS. What it gives, it provisions the local storage. For this, we need that storage to be mounted. So when it comes to a local SSD on a virtual machine, we need to mount it. But you cannot mount SSD for hundreds of machines by just logging to it and checking if the volume is mounted, because that\'s an auto-scaling cluster, right? It might be possible that some days that 80 machines are required. It might be possible that 100 machines are required. But that will definitely be out of scale. For that, you need to write a script. So I have wrote a script to overcome that challenge, that it will identify on the run. Whenever you spin up the machine, it will identify the storage over there, if SSD storage over there. And it will mount the SSD on that particular node, OK? So that\'s how we have tackled a storage problem with our Elasticsearch cluster. And that has been tackled easily. OK, coming to the different point of view over here, if the cluster is set up and the transformation is getting surpassed or anything, with the data set, basically the NoSQL, or you can say the Elasticsearch, or any NoSQL or unstructured databases, what happens, right? Basically, in unstructured, anyone can easily put unrequired data over there. Let\'s say the field name, home address is not over there, OK? And I don\'t want that in my database, OK? But if anyone tries to put that data, it will for sure store that, because it\'s unstructured data. For that, what we have done is we have created a template, OK? What is a template? What kind of data should we put into that index? Or it will be defined into that template. And we have mapped it as a strict. Mapping should be strict, OK? Then only, whenever the data being pushed to that index, we will for sure, every time, check that if the data is in correct format or not, OK? That\'s how we maintain the data integrity in our database and the storage is healthy. So yeah.\n', 'I would like to share an example of a challenging data transformation and storage problem I recently encountered while setting up Elasticsearch with Kubernetes. One significant challenge was the need for a local SSD to ensure faster data retrieval, as EBS volumes were not suitable for our requirements. We had to create a storage class for local SSDs, which Kubernetes does not provide by default. To address this, we utilized a third-party solution called OpenEBS, which allows us to provision local storage.\n\nHowever, mounting SSDs across multiple virtual machines proved to be another challenge. We had an auto-scaling cluster with varying numbers of machines, making manual mounting of SSDs impractical. To streamline this process, I wrote a script that automatically identifies and mounts SSD storage on each node whenever a machine is launched.\n\nAnother issue we faced was maintaining data integrity in NoSQL databases like Elasticsearch. Since unstructured data can often lead to the storage of unwanted fields, we created a template to define the data that should be stored. We enforced strict mapping to ensure that only data in the correct format was allowed.\n\nBy using OpenEBS for local SSD storage and implementing strict templates for data integrity, we successfully resolved these challenging storage and data transformation problems.', '7', 'Bhushan\'s response effectively describes a complex problem he encountered with Elasticsearch storage on Kubernetes and how he solved it by creating a storage class with OpenEBS and writing a script for SSD mounting automation.

(426, 69, 35, 413, 100, 'I see you\'ve worked with data pipeline modernization at Onclusive. Can you please discuss the approach you took to improve performance and reduce costs?', 'Yes, for sure. I have explained that about modernization in my pipelines. So first thing is like why we are modernizing our pipelines. First thing is like a cost optimization. Second is like for the performance that we have and third is like a further scalability. Right now we are using Lambdas, we are using Polars, we are using Kinesis. That is totally based on the AWS managed services, okay, and those are really, really, very costly. So what we have decided, we will use Kafka, that will be a self-managed Kafka cluster. Okay, we will ask our customer to put the data, a lot of data Kafka can handle. It can be easily scaled to a different, different level with minimum price and whenever it\'s not required, we can scale it down. Okay, now coming to the cost optimization, now coming to the scalability first. Okay, now consider there are like 400 Lambdas are working for the one kind of a data, let\'s say for the print, there are 400 executors on the Lambda are working parallelly or concurrently at a time. So for each 400 processes, you have to pay for them for sure, because Lambda works, Lambda is a serverless technology and AWS is asking for the money for each execution or each Lambda getting triggered. Okay, so that\'s how the AWS is making money. But sometimes what happens like we don\'t need to pay that much money because sometimes we need those data to be processed much faster and in a much efficient way. So we have to pay more money for it and sometimes it\'s like, it\'s very like we don\'t need to, we need those Lambdas and all these things to be processed and executed fast. This totally depends on what kind of a stream it is. Okay, so what we need to do is like, what we have done is like we have used Kafka, we have used Apache Beam and we have modernized pipeline, we are using Kafka, from there we are using the Apache Beam pipelines. Okay, what we will do, here we can set manually or you can say the based on auto scaling policy policies that we will set up. Okay, we can scale the executors required however we want. Okay, let\'s say you have received 10 GB of data in a morning. Okay, and you want that to be processed very fast right now. Okay, and with the less amount of money, you can easily create a replication factor, replication of that particular parts to 100 to 500 to 1000 at a time and that does not affect much cost to you because you are going to pay for the, you are going to pay for the machines that has been used. Okay, and that machine will be for sure cheaper in terms of Lambda. Okay, and that executor will continuously work whenever the data goes down or whenever the data flows come to down, you can easily scale it down. So, it will be faster processing as it\'s a big data technology, it will process your data in a much faster way. Okay, there will be cost optimization and then we are also handling the scalability with the help of Kafka and the executors. So, that\'s how we are doing. Okay.\n', 'We have taken a proactive approach to modernizing our data pipelines at Onclusive, emphasizing cost optimization, performance, and scalability. Initially, we relied on AWS managed services such as Lambdas, Polars, and Kinesis, which proved to be quite expensive. As a result, we transitioned to a self-managed Kafka cluster, which is both scalable and cost-effective. Kafka can handle large volumes of data and allows us to adjust our capacity as needed.\n\nTo further optimize costs, we replaced many Lambdas with Kafka and Apache Beam. Since Lambdas operate on a pay-per-execution basis, they can become costly when running multiple instances simultaneously. With Kafka and Apache Beam, we can implement auto-scaling policies that enable us to increase the number of executors when demand rises and decrease them when it falls. This flexibility significantly reduces our expenses.\n\nFor instance, if we receive 10 GB of data in the morning, we can scale up the executors to process this data quickly. As the data flow decreases, we scale down accordingly. This strategy is more economical than maintaining numerous Lambdas.\n\nIn summary, by leveraging Kafka and Apache Beam, we have enhanced performance, reduced costs, and ensured scalability. Our modernized pipelines are now efficient and cost-effective.', '7', 'Bhushan\'s response outlines the reasons for modernizing data pipelines, focusing on cost optimization, performance, and scalability.

This involved proper management of lifecycle-aware components and ensuring resources were released when no longer needed.\n\n4. **Image Loading**: We improved image loading and caching with libraries like Glide, which reduced the time required to load images and enhanced the overall responsiveness of the application.\n\n5. **Database Optimization**: We optimized database queries and utilized indexing to accelerate data retrieval. Additionally, we implemented pagination to load data in chunks rather than all at once, which decreased the initial load time.\n\n6. **Network Optimization**: We employed Retrofit for efficient network calls and implemented caching strategies to minimize redundant network requests. This not only improved performance but also reduced data usage.\n\n7. **UI Optimization**: We ensured that the UI components were lightweight and avoided complex layouts that could hinder rendering speed. We also used RecyclerView for efficiently displaying large lists of data.\n\nBy applying these tools and techniques, we significantly enhanced the application\'s performance, resulting in faster load times and a smoother user experience.

This was a critical situation that required swift action. I collaborated closely with the team to update the SSL certificate and ensure its proper integration into the application. We conducted extensive testing to confirm that the handshake process was secure and that the application could communicate with the server without any issues.\n\nAnother challenge was ensuring data security, especially when storing data locally. We implemented encrypted shared preferences to securely store sensitive information. For more critical data, we utilized the Android Keystore system to manage cryptographic keys securely, ensuring that even if the device was compromised, the sensitive data remained protected.\n\nFor API calls, we adopted JWT (JSON Web Tokens) for authentication, ensuring that only authorized users could access the APIs. We also employed OAuth for secure authentication and authorization. Additionally, we implemented SSL pinning to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks, ensuring that the application only communicated with trusted servers.\n\nWe prioritized securing data transmission within the application. For instance, when passing data between fragments, we used encryption to maintain data security. We adhered to OWASP (Open Web Application Security Project) guidelines to implement best practices for secure coding.\n\nTo protect the application from reverse engineering, we utilized ProGuard to obfuscate the code, making it difficult for attackers to decompile the application and understand its inner workings. We also secured components like broadcast receivers and services by implementing security checks and permissions to prevent unauthorized access.\n\nOverall, these measures enabled us to build a secure application that safeguarded user data and ensured secure communication with the server.

I began my journey with Java while working on an e-commerce application, and more recently, I have transitioned to using Kotlin in the automotive sector.\n\nIn my earlier projects, I utilized Java for various aspects of Android development, including thread management, where I applied Java\'s threading model to handle background tasks and UI updates. I also implemented network operations using libraries like Retrofit and managed JSON parsing with Gson. Additionally, I built complex UI components to ensure smooth interaction with the backend.\n\nIn my recent projects, I have leveraged Kotlin\'s advanced features to enhance development efficiency and code quality. I used Kotlin Coroutines for managing asynchronous tasks, which simplified the code and improved readability compared to traditional threading models. Kotlin\'s null safety features helped reduce null pointer exceptions, making the code more robust. I also utilized extension functions to add functionality to existing classes without modifying their code, which improved modularity and readability. Furthermore, higher-order functions and lambdas allowed for more expressive and concise code, especially in scenarios involving callbacks and event handling.\n\nOne notable project where I utilized advanced features of Kotlin was the development of an automotive HMI application. In this project, I implemented coroutines for handling network calls and background tasks, ensuring a smooth and responsive user interface. I used extension functions to simplify the manipulation of UI components, making the code cleaner and more maintainable. I also leveraged Kotlin\'s sealed classes to manage different states of the UI, such as loading, success, and error states, in a type-safe manner.\n\nBy utilizing these advanced features of Java and Kotlin, I was able to develop robust, efficient, and maintainable Android applications. This experience has provided me with a deep understanding of both languages and their respective strengths in the context of Android development.', '6', 'Muhammed\'s response shows that he has experience with both Java and Kotlin in Android development, mentioning the use of threads, coroutines, and network calls.

My responsibilities included defining the build and test processes that required automation, outlining the steps for compiling code, running unit tests, and conducting static code analysis. I also contributed by writing scripts in languages like Bash and Groovy to automate various stages of the CI/CD pipeline, which were essential for triggering builds, running tests, and deploying applications.\n\nWe primarily used Jenkins for continuous integration, where I configured jobs to automatically build and test the application whenever code was pushed to the repository. This setup included triggers for pull requests and merges. Integration with Git repositories, such as GitHub and Bitbucket, was crucial to ensure our CI/CD pipeline responded to code changes. Additionally, we incorporated code quality tools like SonarQube into the pipeline to perform static code analysis and maintain high code quality. I wrote and maintained automated tests, including unit tests and UI tests, which were executed as part of the CI/CD pipeline to identify issues early.\n\nThe workflow began with developers pushing code to the Git repository, which triggered Jenkins to initiate a build. Automated tests were executed, followed by static analysis using tools like SonarQube to check for quality and security issues. If all tests passed, build artifacts were created and stored, and the application was deployed to a staging environment for further testing.\n\nBy integrating CI/CD pipelines, we significantly reduced manual effort and the potential for human error. Continuous testing and static analysis improved code quality and facilitated early detection of issues, while faster and more reliable deployments allowed us to deliver features and updates to users more quickly.

One of my key contributions was tailoring the system UI to integrate specific hardware components, such as cameras and DVR systems, with the vehicle\'s infotainment system. To achieve this, I began by thoroughly understanding the requirements for integrating these hardware components, collaborating closely with hardware teams to grasp the data they provided. I accessed hardware data through the Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL), which required me to familiarize myself with the hardware interfaces and the data they offered. In some instances, I interacted with native libraries written in C++ to retrieve data from the lower layers of the Android architecture. Next, I customized the system UI by extending its components to display data from the hardware. This involved creating custom views and integrating them into the existing UI framework. For vehicle-specific data, I worked with CAN signals to obtain real-time information and present it appropriately in the system UI. I also made modifications to the Android framework layer to ensure seamless integration of hardware data with the system UI, which involved writing and adjusting Java and Kotlin code to manage data flow and UI updates. As a result of these efforts, we achieved a smooth integration of hardware components with the vehicle\'s infotainment system, enhancing user experience by providing real-time data and improved functionality.

This integration has allowed me to build scalable and reliable applications without managing server infrastructure. Additionally, I have employed Firebase Cloud Functions to execute backend code in response to events triggered by Firebase features and HTTPS requests, facilitating a serverless architecture and minimizing the need for dedicated backend servers.\n\nWhile I haven\'t directly worked with Docker or Kubernetes in my Android development, I appreciate their significance in the broader development ecosystem. Containerization is beneficial for establishing consistent development environments. For example, using Docker to create a standardized build environment ensures that all team members use the same tools and dependencies, thereby reducing \"it works on my machine\" issues. Furthermore, Docker and Kubernetes are often utilized in CI/CD pipelines to automate the build, test, and deployment processes. Although I have not personally set up these pipelines, I have collaborated with DevOps teams that use these technologies to enhance our development workflow.\n\nI understand that containerization technologies like Docker and orchestration tools like Kubernetes are essential for scaling applications and managing deployments in a microservices architecture.

Ensuring efficient interaction between JavaScript code and backend services is crucial for a seamless user experience. Here’s how I approach it:\n\n1. **RESTful APIs**: I use RESTful APIs to facilitate communication between the frontend and backend. This involves making HTTP requests using methods like GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE to interact with backend services.\n\n2. **Asynchronous Programming**: I leverage JavaScript’s asynchronous capabilities, such as Promises and async/await, to handle API calls. This ensures that the UI remains responsive while waiting for data from the backend.\n\n3. **Error Handling**: Implementing robust error handling is essential. I use try/catch blocks to manage exceptions and provide meaningful feedback to the user in case of errors.\n\n4. **Data Validation**: I ensure that data sent to the backend is validated on the client side to reduce the risk of errors and improve efficiency.\n\n5. **Optimized Requests**: I minimize the number of API calls by batching requests when possible and using techniques like debouncing for user input events.\n\n6. **Security**: I ensure secure communication by using HTTPS and implementing authentication mechanisms like JWT (JSON Web Tokens) for secure data exchange.\n\nFor example, in a project where I developed a subscription system, I used Axios, a popular HTTP client for JavaScript, to make API calls to the backend. By using async/await for asynchronous operations and implementing proper error handling, I ensured that the frontend interacted efficiently with the backend, providing a smooth and responsive user experience.', '4', 'Abhi\'s response touches on the use of HTTP protocols for communication between frontend and backend, which is relevant.

Each object can have unique properties (like a cat might have a \'meow\' sound, and a dog might have a \'bark\' sound) but they all share the common structure defined by the class.\n\nOOP in Python involves key concepts like inheritance (where a class can inherit properties and methods from another class), encapsulation (restricting access to certain components), polymorphism (using a unified interface to operate on different data types), and abstraction (hiding complex implementation details and showing only the necessary features). Python and Java both support OOP, making it easier to organize and manage code, especially for larger projects.', '6', 'Jyoti\'s response provides a basic explanation of classes and objects in the context of Object-Oriented Programming (OOP), using an animal analogy which is good for beginners. However, the explanation could be improved by including other fundamental OOP concepts such as inheritance, encapsulation, polymorphism, and abstraction. Additionally, mentioning how OOP helps in organizing and managing code would provide a more comprehensive understanding of its benefits.'),

Please provide an example.', 'While working, well actually I have handled all manipulation and event handling in a project which I was doing for a practice session while I was learning. So the thing which I did was during, I was facing some errors in event handling for adding some features which is to ruin the whole code. Then I started using the console log to check where I would have met the error. I included number of print statements in between my code to check in the console where the error have been occurred.

So there I used DOM manipulation.\n', 'Yoda Response: Certainly, Avi. In my experience with JavaScript, I\'ve handled DOM manipulation and event handling in several projects. One notable example is a web application I developed for an NGO.\n\n**DOM Manipulation**: In this project, I needed to dynamically update the content of the web page based on user interactions. For instance, when a user submitted a form, I used JavaScript to manipulate the DOM and display a confirmation message without refreshing the page. I utilized methods like `document.getElementById` and `document.createElement` to interact with and modify the DOM elements.\n\n**Event Handling**: I also implemented various event handlers to enhance user experience. For example, I added event listeners to buttons to handle click events. One specific feature was a \"Donate\" button that, when clicked, would open a modal window with donation options. I used `addEventListener` to attach the click event to the button and defined a function to display the modal.\n\nHere’s a brief code snippet illustrating DOM manipulation and event handling:\n\n```javascript\n// Event handling for the Donate button\ndocument.getElementById(\'donateButton\').addEventListener(\'click\', function() {\n    // DOM manipulation to show the modal\n    document.getElementById(\'donationModal\').style.display = \'block\';\n});\n\n// Event handling for the form submission\ndocument.getElementById(\'donationForm\').addEventListener(\'submit\', function(event) {\n    event.preventDefault(); // Prevent form from submitting the traditional way\n    // DOM manipulation to show a confirmation message\n    document.getElementById(\'confirmationMessage\').innerText = \'Thank you for your donation!\';\n});\n```\n\nBy using these techniques, I was able to create a more interactive and responsive user interface, enhancing the overall user experience of the application.', '4', 'Jyoti\'s response indicates some experience with DOM manipulation and event handling, but it lacks specificity and clarity.

In a collaborative project environment, Git is an essential tool for version control and collaboration. Here’s how I’ve used Git in such a setting:\n\n1. **Repository Management**: We set up a central repository on GitHub where all team members could push their code. This ensured that everyone had access to the latest version of the project.\n\n2. **Branching**: Each team member worked on their own branch to develop features or fix bugs. This allowed us to work in parallel without interfering with each other\'s code. For example, I would create a branch named `feature-login` if I was working on the login functionality.\n\n3. **Commit and Push**: Regular commits were made to document changes and progress. These commits were then pushed to the central repository. This practice helped in maintaining a clear history of changes and facilitated easier rollbacks if needed.\n\n4. **Pull Requests and Code Reviews**: Once a feature was complete, a pull request was created to merge the branch into the main branch. Team members would review the code, provide feedback, and approve the changes. This process ensured code quality and fostered collaboration.\n\n5. **Merge Conflicts**: Occasionally, merge conflicts would arise when multiple team members modified the same part of the code. We resolved these conflicts by communicating with each other and manually merging the changes.\n\n6. **Continuous Integration**: We used GitHub Actions for continuous integration, which automatically ran tests on the codebase whenever a pull request was made. This ensured that new changes did not break existing functionality.\n\nHere’s a brief example of how I would use Git commands in a collaborative environment:\n\n```bash\n# Clone the repository\ngit clone https://github.com/your-repo/project.git\n\n# Create and switch to a new branch\ngit checkout -b feature-login\n\n# Make changes and commit\ngit add .\ngit commit -m \"Implemented login feature\"\n\n# Push the branch to the remote repository\ngit push origin feature-login\n\n# Create a pull request on GitHub for code review and merging\n```\n\nUsing Git in this structured manner helped our team collaborate effectively, maintain code quality, and streamline the development process.', '2', 'Jyoti\'s response indicates a lack of practical experience with Git and GitHub in a collaborative project environment.

This helps screen readers and other assistive technologies understand the layout and importance of different sections.\n\n2. **ARIA Roles and Attributes**: I incorporated ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) roles and attributes to enhance the accessibility of dynamic content. For example, I used `role=\"button\"` for interactive elements that were not standard HTML buttons and `aria-live` for regions that needed to be updated dynamically.\n\n3. **Keyboard Navigation**: Ensured that all interactive elements were accessible via keyboard navigation. This included using the `tabindex` attribute to manage focus order and adding keyboard event listeners for custom controls.\n\n4. **Alt Text for Images**: Provided descriptive `alt` text for all images to ensure that screen readers could convey the content of images to visually impaired users.\n\n5. **Form Labels**: Ensured that all form elements had associated `<label>` tags to make it easier for screen readers to describe the purpose of each input field.\n\n6. **Contrast and Font Size**: Used sufficient color contrast between text and background to make the content readable for users with visual impairments. I also ensured that the font size was large enough to be easily readable.\n\n7. **Testing with Screen Readers**: Tested the application with screen readers like NVDA and VoiceOver to ensure that the content was being read correctly and that the navigation was intuitive.\n\n8. **Validation**: Used HTML validators to check for any errors or warnings that could affect accessibility and compliance with web standards.\n\nBy following these practices, I aimed to create an accessible and user-friendly interface that met web standards and provided a positive experience for visually impaired users.', '4', 'Jyoti\'s response indicates an awareness of the importance of accessibility and user-friendly design, particularly for visually impaired users.

(502, 79, 53, 465, 113, 'Given your experience with responsive design, could you please describe how you approach creating a layout that works on multiple devices?', 'Recently, there are so many web development applications which use web development from scratch but I would suggest that for any application building, if you use HTML and CSS along with JavaScript, it makes the application best. And using Bootstrap is a good option but I would not suggest it so far because once the whole CSS in our hands only when we write the CSS by ourselves. So it\'s better, it\'s best to use the Flexbox and layout, Flexbox layout to make our application and later also the changes, to make changes in that to make it more responsive. It\'s easy when you use Flexbox.\n', 'Yoda Response: Certainly, Avi. Creating a responsive layout that works seamlessly across multiple devices involves several key steps. Here’s my approach:\n\n1. **Mobile-First Design**: I start by designing the layout for mobile devices first. This ensures that the core functionality and user experience are optimized for smaller screens. Once the mobile layout is solid, I progressively enhance the design for larger screens.\n\n2. **Flexible Grid System**: I use a flexible grid system, often leveraging CSS Grid or Flexbox, to create a layout that can adapt to different screen sizes. Flexbox is particularly useful for creating responsive layouts because it allows for flexible item alignment and distribution within a container.\n\n3. **Media Queries**: I employ CSS media queries to apply different styles based on the screen size or device characteristics. This allows me to adjust the layout, font sizes, and other design elements to ensure they look good on various devices. For example:\n    ```css\n    @media (min-width: 768px) {\n        .container {\n            display: flex;\n            flex-direction: row;\n        }\n    }\n    @media (max-width: 767px) {\n        .container {\n            display: flex;\n            flex-direction: column;\n        }\n    }\n    ```\n\n4. **Fluid Layouts**: I use relative units like percentages, `em`, and `rem` instead of fixed units like pixels. This makes the layout more fluid and adaptable to different screen sizes.\n\n5. **Responsive Images**: I ensure that images are responsive by using the `max-width: 100%` property, which makes images scale down if the container becomes smaller. Additionally, I use the `srcset` attribute to provide different image resolutions for different devices.\n\n6. **Testing Across Devices**: I test the layout on multiple devices and screen sizes to ensure it looks and functions well everywhere. Tools like Chrome DevTools, BrowserStack, and physical device testing help in this process.\n\n7. **User Experience Considerations**: I pay attention to touch targets, navigation, and readability. Ensuring that buttons are large enough to be easily tapped and that text is readable without zooming is crucial for a good user experience.\n\nBy following these steps, I aim to create a responsive design that provides a consistent and enjoyable user experience across all devices.', '6', 'Jyoti\'s response touches on the use of modern CSS techniques like Flexbox for responsive design, which is relevant.
