3. Describe the differences between == and .equals() in Java.?

== operator are used to compare objects.

The main difference is that string equals() method compares the content equality of
two strings
while the == operator compares the reference or memory location of objects in a
heap,
whether they point to the same location or not.
ex:
String s1 = "HELLO";
String s2 = "HELLO";
String s3 = new String("HELLO");

System.out.println(s1 == s2);//true
System.out.println(s1 == s3); //false
System.out.println(s1.equals(s2));//t
System.out.println(s1.equals(s3));//t

4. What is the difference between a class and an object?

* a class is a template for objects, while an object is an instance of a class:

*Classes are logical entities that don't consume memory space until an object is
created.
*Objects are created and used throughout a program and consume memory space.

5. Explain the concept of constructors in Java?

In Java, a constructor is a block of code that initializes an object's state and

value when it's created.
Constructors are similar to methods, but have a few key differences:
Name: The constructor's name is the same as the class name.
Return type: Constructors don't have a return type.
Static, volatile, or final: Constructors can't be static, volatile, or final.

7. Describe the difference between static and non-static members in Java.

Key Differences
Aspect: Static Members Non-Static Members
Belongs To: Class Object
Access: Via class name or object Only via object
Memory Allocation: Once per class Once per object
Lifetime: As long as the class is loaded As long as the object
exists
Keyword: Declared with static No static keyword

9. Explain the difference between an abstract class and an interface

1) Abstract class can have abstract and non-abstract methods.

Interface can have only abstract methods. Since Java 8, it can have default and
static methods also.
2) Abstract class doesn't support multiple inheritance.
Interface supports multiple inheritance.
3) Abstract class can have final, non-final, static and non-static variables.
Interface has only static and final variables.
4) Abstract class can provide the implementation of interface.
Interface can't provide the implementation of abstract class.
5) The abstract keyword is used to declare abstract class.
The interface keyword is used to declare interface.

6) An abstract class can extend another Java class and implement multiple Java
interfaces.
An interface can extend another Java interface only.

7) An abstract class can be extended using keyword "extends".

An interface can be implemented using keyword "implements".

8) A Java abstract class can have class members like private, protected, etc.
Members of a Java interface are public by default.

9)Example:
public abstract class Shape{
public abstract void draw();
}
Example:
public interface Drawable{
void draw();
}

10. What are default methods in interfaces?

The default methods are fully implemented methods in an interface, and they are
declared by using the keyword default .
Because the default methods have some default implementation,
they help extend the interfaces without breaking the existing code.

11. How is memory managed in Java?

Java automatically handles memory so you don’t need to manually allocate or free
it.
* Objects are created in the heap, and Java clears unused objects using the Garbage
Collector.
* Temporary data like variables in methods is stored in the stack and cleared after
the method ends.

12. What is garbage collection in Java?

Garbage Collection:

Java automatically finds and deletes unused objects from the heap to reclaim
memory.
Developers don’t need to manually free memory.

Note: System.gc() and Runtime.gc() are the methods which requests for Garbage
collection to JVM explicitly
but it doesn’t ensures garbage collection as the final decision of garbage
collection is of JVM only.

13. Explain the final, finally, and finalize keywords?

final: Prevents changes (for variables can't chane value, methods can't override,
or classes are not extened).
finally: Used in Exception Handling: It is a block of code that always runs,
regardless of whether an exception
is thrown or not.
finalize(): Used for Garbage Collection: It is a method that is called by the
garbage collector
before an object is destroyed.
It's a way to clean up resources before the object is removed from
memory.
14. What is the difference between checked and unchecked exceptions
checked:
Definition: These are exceptions that are checked by the compiler at compile time.
The programmer is required to
handle them using a try-catch block or declare them using the throws
keyword.
Examples: IOException, SQLException, FileNotFoundException.

unchecked:
Definition: These are exceptions that are not checked by the compiler at compile
time.
They are runtime exceptions and typically occur due to programming
errors.
Examples: NullPointerException, ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException,
ArithmeticException.

15. Explain the concept of multithreading in Java.

Multithreading in Java is a way of running multiple tasks (or threads)
simultaneously in a single program.

Thread: A thread is like a small unit of a program that can run independently. A
program can have one or more threads.

16. What is the volatile keyword

The volatile keyword ensures that changes to a variable made by one thread are
visible to all other threads immediately.

17. What is a thread pool, and how is it managed in Java

A thread pool in Java is a collection of pre-created threads that are managed and
reused to execute tasks.
Instead of creating a new thread each time a task needs to be executed, tasks are
assigned to threads in the pool.
This improves performance by avoiding the overhead of constantly creating and
destroying threads

18. Explain the concept of lambda expressions in Java

Lambda expressions in Java are a way to write shorter and more readable code,
especially when working
with functional interfaces. A lambda expression allows you to define a method (or
function) inline,
without the need to write a separate method or class.

Syntax: (parameters) -> {body}

ex:Calculator calc = (a, b) -> a + b;

19. What are functional interfaces

In Java, a functional interface is an interface that has exactly one abstract

method.
These interfaces are designed to be used with lambda expressions or method
references to provide a
clear and concise way to express functional programming concepts

Common Functional Interfaces in Java:

Runnable: Used for tasks that don’t return a result.
void run();
Callable: Similar to Runnable, but it returns a result.
T call() throws Exception;
Comparator: Used to compare two objects.
int compare(T o1, T o2);
Predicate: Represents a condition or boolean test.
boolean test(T t);
Function: Represents a function that takes an argument and returns a result.
R apply(T t);

20. Explain the concept of streams in Java.

In Java, streams are used to handle input and output operations like reading from
or writing to files,
network connections, and other data sources. Streams in Java are part of the
java.io and java.nio packages,
and they abstract the handling of data, allowing for smooth data flow between
programs and external sources.

1)Byte Streams:InputStream, OutputStream, and their subclasses like

FileInputStream, FileOutputStream
2)Character Streams:Classes: Reader, Writer, and their subclasses like FileReader,
FileWriter, BufferedReader,
BufferedWriter

Byte Streams: For reading and writing binary data.

Character Streams: For reading and writing text data.
Buffered Streams: For efficient I/O operations.
Stream API: For functional-style operations on collections.

...........---JDBC---.........
1.What is JDBC? Explain its architecture.
JDBC (Java Database Connectivity) is a Java API that provides a standard interface
for connecting to and
interacting with databases. It allows Java applications to execute SQL queries,
retrieve results,
and update data in relational databases. JDBC enables Java programs to communicate
with a variety of
database management systems (DBMS), such as MySQL, Oracle, SQL Server, etc.

The JDBC architecture is based on a two-tier architecture, consisting of the JDBC

API and the JDBC Driver.

1.Common classes and interfaces in the JDBC API include:

Connection: Establishes a connection to the database.
Statement: Allows SQL queries to be executed.
ResultSet: Stores and processes the result of a query.
PreparedStatement: A more efficient version of Statement that supports
parameterized queries.
DriverManager: Manages database drivers.
2. JDBC Driver (Database Layer)
The JDBC driver is responsible for translating Java calls into database-specific
calls, enabling the application
to communicate with the database.
There are four types of JDBC drivers:
Type-1 (JDBC-ODBC Bridge Driver): Translates JDBC calls into ODBC calls (obsolete
in most modern systems).
Type-2 (Native-API Driver): Uses native database client libraries to communicate
with the database.
Type-3 (Network Protocol Driver): Uses a middleware server to handle database
communication.
Type-4 (Thin Driver): A pure Java driver that directly communicates with the
database without any middleware.

work flow:
1.Load Driver → 2. Establish Connection → 3. Create Statement → 4. Execute Query →
5. Process Results → 6. Close Connection.
---------------------------------------------------------------

2.How do you connect to a database using JDBC?

Steps to Connect to a Database Using JDBC:

1.Load the JDBC Driver
Before making a connection, you must load the appropriate JDBC driver for the
database you're working with.
This is typically done using Class.forName().

2.Establish a Database Connection

Once the driver is loaded, you use the DriverManager.getConnection() method to
establish a connection to the database.

3.Create a Statement
After establishing the connection, you need to create a Statement or
PreparedStatement object to execute SQL queries.

4.Execute SQL Queries

Use the Statement or PreparedStatement to execute SQL queries, which can be SELECT,
INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE.

5.Process the Results

If the query returns data (like SELECT), you process the results using a ResultSet.

6.Close the Connection

Finally, after the operations are complete, it is important to close the connection
to release resources.
-------------------------------------------------------------------

3.What is the purpose of the DriverManager class?

The DriverManager class in Java is part of the JDBC (Java Database Connectivity)
API. Its main purpose
is to manage a list of database drivers that Java applications use to connect to
different databases.

Key Roles of DriverManager:

1)Register Database Drivers: It loads and registers database drivers (e.g., MySQL,
Oracle) so the Java program
can use them to connect to the database.

2)Establish Connections: It helps in establishing a connection to a database by

selecting the appropriate driver
based on the database URL.

3)Manage Driver List: It keeps track of all the drivers and automatically selects
the correct one for the connection.

How It Works:
When you call DriverManager.getConnection(), it checks the list of available
drivers and uses the correct
one to establish a connection to the database.
-----------------------------------------------

4.Explain the different types of JDBC drivers.

Type-1 Driver (JDBC-ODBC Bridge Driver)

Description:
Acts as a bridge between JDBC and ODBC (Open Database Connectivity).
Translates JDBC calls into ODBC function calls.

Type-2 Driver (Native-API Driver)

Description:
Converts JDBC calls into database-specific native API calls.
Requires the database’s client-side libraries

Type-3 Driver (Network Protocol Driver)

Description:
Uses a middleware server to translate JDBC calls into database-specific protocol
calls.
The middleware handles the communication with the database

Type-4 Driver (Thin Driver)

Description:
Directly translates JDBC calls to the database’s native protocol.
Written entirely in Java.

Type Translation Layers Performance Platform Dependency

Use Case
Type-1 JDBC → ODBC → Database Slow Platform-
dependent Legacy or experimental usage.
Type-2 JDBC → Native API → Database Moderate Platform-dependent
Legacy systems.
Type-3 JDBC → Middleware → Database Moderate Platform-independent
Distributed or web applications.
Type-4 JDBC → Database Fast Platform-
independent Modern applications.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------
5.What are prepared statements, and why are they used?
prepared statements is
a feature where the database pre-compiles SQL code and stores the results,
separating it from data.
Benefits of prepared statements are: efficiency, because they can be used
repeatedly without re-compiling.
secure and flexibility.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------

6.How do you execute a stored procedure in Java?

Executing a stored procedure in Java is done using the JDBC API, specifically
through the CallableStatement interface.
Stored procedures are precompiled SQL routines stored in the database that can be
invoked by Java applications.

Steps to Execute a Stored Procedure in Java

1)Set Up Database Connection: Use the Connection interface to establish a
connection with the database.
2)Create a CallableStatement: Use the Connection.prepareCall() method to create a
CallableStatement object for the
stored procedure.
3)Bind Parameters: If the stored procedure has parameters, bind them using
CallableStatement methods like setString(),
setInt(), or registerOutParameter().
4)Execute the Procedure: Call the execute(), executeQuery(), or executeUpdate()
method based on the type of operation.
5)Process Results: Retrieve output parameters or result sets as applicable.
6)Close Resources: Close the CallableStatement and other JDBC resources.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------
7. What is a transaction in JDBC? How do you manage it?

A transaction in JDBC is a sequence of one or more SQL operations executed as a

single unit of work.
It ensures that either all operations in the transaction are completed successfully
(commit) or none of them are
applied (rollback) to maintain data integrity.

you can use the Connection interface's setAutoCommit() method to set the auto-
commit mode to false.
Once auto-commit is disabled, you can use the commit() and rollback() methods to
commit or roll back a transaction.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------

8. Explain the purpose of batch processing in JDBC?

Batch processing in JDBC is a feature that allows executing multiple SQL statements
as a single batch,
reducing the number of database interactions. It is particularly useful for
performing large-scale,
repetitive operations like inserting, updating, or deleting records in bulk.

How Batch Processing Works in JDBC

1) Create a Statement or PreparedStatement:
Use Statement or PreparedStatement for SQL operations.

2) Add SQL Statements to the Batch:

Use addBatch() to add SQL statements to the batch.

3)Execute the Batch:

Use executeBatch() to execute all the statements in the batch.

4)Handle Results:
Check the return values of executeBatch() to determine the outcome of each
statement
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------

9. What is connection pooling, and how is it implemented?

Connection pooling is a technique used to manage a pool of reusable database

connections.
Instead of creating a new connection for each database request (which is time-
consuming and resource-intensive),
the application retrieves an existing connection from the pool, improving
performance and scalability.

Connection pooling is commonly implemented using a third-party library or

application server.
Popular libraries for connection pooling in Java include:

1.Apache DBCP (Database Connection Pooling)

2.HikariCP
3.C3P0
4.Tomcat JDBC Connection Pool
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------
10. How do you handle SQL exceptions in Java?

In Java, SQL exceptions are instances of the SQLException class, thrown when a
database access error or
other issues related to database operations occur. Handling these exceptions
properly ensures the application remains
robust and can recover gracefully from errors.

Steps to Handle SQL Exceptions...

1. Use Try-Catch Blocks
Wrap database operations in a try-catch block to catch SQLException
2. Log Exception Details
Retrieve and log exception information for debugging:

Message: e.getMessage()
SQLState: e.getSQLState()
Error Code: e.getErrorCode()

3. Handle Chained Exceptions

SQLExceptions can be chained using getNextException(). Iterate through the chain to
identify the root cause.
4. Graceful Error Recovery
Provide meaningful error messages to users and implement recovery mechanisms where
possible.
5. Close Resources in Finally Block or Use Try-With-Resources
Always close database resources (Connection, Statement, ResultSet) to avoid
resource leaks.

-----oops-----
26. Can a class extend multiple classes in Java? Why or why not?

No, a class in Java cannot extend multiple classes directly. This is because Java
does not support
multiple inheritance with classes to avoid ambiguity and complexity that can arise
from it.
Instead, Java allows a class to implement multiple interfaces, which provides a way
to achieve
multiple inheritance in a safer and more structured manner.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------
27. What is the difference between IS-A and HAS-A relationships
IS a Definition: Represents inheritance. It signifies that one class (child) is a
type of another class (parent).
HAS a Definition: Represents composition or aggregation. It signifies that one
class contains an instance
of another class as part of its properties.

Feature IS-A Relationship

HAS-A Relationship
Definition: Describes inheritance (a "type of"). Describes
composition (a "has a").
Implementation: Achieved using the extends keyword or
implementing an interface. Achieved by
creating an object as a member
variable
in another class.
Dependency: Subclass is dependent on the superclass. Two classes can exist
independently.
Example: Dog IS-A Animal. Car HAS-A
Engine.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----
28. What are inner classes in Java?

In Java, inner classes are classes defined within another class. They are used to
logically group classes
that belong together and to improve encapsulation. An inner class has access to
the members
(including private members) of its enclosing class.

Types of Inner Classes

Java provides four types of inner classes:

Non-static Nested Class (Inner Class)

Static Nested Class
Local Inner Class
Anonymous Inner Class
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------
29. Explain the concept of method hiding in Java.

Method hiding in Java occurs when a static method in a subclass has the same
signature as a static method
in its superclass. In this case, the method in the subclass hides the method in the
superclass, rather than
overriding it. The method that gets called is determined at compile-time, based on
the type of the reference,
not the object.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------

30. What are anonymous classes?

Anonymous classes in Java are a type of local inner class that do not have a name.
They are defined and instantiated in a single expression, typically used for
creating one-time-use objects or
overriding methods of an existing class or interface.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

61. Explain the concept of reflection in Java.

In Java, reflection is a powerful feature that allows a program to inspect,

analyze, and manipulate classes,
methods, fields, and constructors at runtime, even if their names or behavior are
not known at compile time.
It is part of the Java Reflection API, provided in the "java.lang.reflect" package.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---

62. What is Java Native Interface (JNI)?

The Java Native Interface (JNI) is a framework that enables Java code to interact
with or call native
applications and libraries written in other programming languages like C, C++, or
assembly. It acts as a bridge
between Java and native code, allowing Java applications to use functionalities not
directly available in Java.

Components of JNI:
Native Libraries: The shared libraries (.dll on Windows, .so on Linux, .dylib on
macOS) that contain
the native methods.
Java Code: Declares the native methods using the native keyword.

ex: public native void printMessage();// method with no implement

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------

63. Explain the difference between Callable and Runnable.

In Java, both Callable and Runnable are interfaces used to represent tasks that can
be executed by
a thread or an executor.

Runnable:
Does not return any result.
The run() method has a void return type.

Callable:
Can return a result after the task is executed.
The call() method returns a value of a generic type (T).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------

64. What is Java RMI?

Java Remote Method Invocation (RMI) is a mechanism that allows an object in one
Java virtual machine (JVM) to access and invoke an object in another JVM. RMI is
used to build distributed applications and enables remote communication
between Java programs.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------
65. How does the ExecutorService framework work?

The ExecutorService framework in Java provides a higher-level alternative to

managing threads compared
to manually creating and controlling Thread objects. It is part of the
java.util.concurrent package and
provides a mechanism for managing thread pools, submitting tasks, and handling
their execution.

How ExecutorService Works

1) Task Submission: Tasks can be submitted to an ExecutorService using:
execute(Runnable task): Executes a Runnable task but does not return any result.
submit(): Accepts both Runnable and Callable tasks and returns a Future object for
retrieving the result or
monitoring progress.

2)Thread Pool Management:

The pool manages the lifecycle of threads, optimizing resource usage by reusing
threads instead of
creating new ones for every task.

3)Task Execution:
The executor picks tasks from a queue and assigns them to threads in the pool. If
all threads are busy,
the tasks wait in the queue.

4)Result Handling:
For tasks submitted with "Callable" or "Runnable", the result can be retrieved
using a "Future" object.
The Future allows:
Blocking until the task completes.
Cancelling a task.
Checking if a task is done.

5)Shutdown:
shutdown(): Prevents new tasks from being submitted but allows previously submitted
tasks to complete.
shutdownNow(): Attempts to stop all running tasks immediately.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------
66. What are annotations in Java?

Annotations in Java provide additional information to the compiler and JVM. An

annotation is a tag representing metadata about classes, interfaces, variables,
methods, or fields. Annotations do not impact the execution of the code that they
annotate. Some of the characteristics of annotations are: Begin with "@"

Types of Processing: Annotations can be processed:

At compile-time by annotation processors.
At runtime via reflection.
(e.g., @Override, @Deprecated,@SuppressWarnings).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------

67. Explain the working of the Fork/Join framework?

The Java Fork/Join framework is a tool for parallel programming that uses a
"divide and conquer" strategy to break down complex tasks into smaller, more
manageable subtasks.

Fork and Join:

Fork: Split a task into subtasks and submit them for parallel execution.
Join: Wait for the subtasks to complete and combine their results.

How Fork/Join Framework Works

1)Submit a Task:
A large task is submitted to the ForkJoinPool.
Example: Summing an array of integers.

2)Divide the Task:

The task is recursively split into smaller subtasks using the "fork()" method.

3)Process Subtasks:
Subtasks are executed in parallel by the worker threads in the pool.

4)Combine Results:
Results of subtasks are combined using the "join()" method.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

68.How does the Java NIO package differ from the IO package?

Java IO package for handling input and output. While both packages serve the
purpose of reading and
writing data,they differ significantly in terms of design, functionality, and
performance.

Key Differences Between Java NIO and IO

Feature Java IO Java NIO
1.Programming Model -> Stream-based Buffer-based
2.Blocking Behavior -> Synchronous and blocking Non-blocking (with support
for blocking)
3.Performance ->Suitable for simple and small Designed for high
performance, especially with large
data transfers; less efficient data.
 for large data

4.Data Handling ->Handles data as streams Handles data in

chunks (buffers)
(one byte or character at a time)
5.Concurrency -> Single-threaded blocking operations Supports
multiplexing with selectors
6.Channels -> Not supported Supported
7.Selectors -> Not supported Supported for
monitoring multiple channels
8.File Operations -> Limited Advanced features
(e.g., memory mapping)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------

69. What is a CompletableFuture?

A CompletableFuture is a class in Java that allows you to run tasks asynchronously,

meaning tasks can run
in the background without blocking your main program. It provides a way to handle
the result of these tasks
once they complete, and also to handle any errors.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------

70. What is the role of the Atomic classes in Java?

The Atomic classes in Java, provided in the "java.util.concurrent.atomic" package,

are used to perform
"atomic operations" on single variables.
The Atomic classes in Java are used to perform thread-safe operations on variables
without needing to use locks.
They allow multiple threads to safely update variables like integers, booleans, or
objects without causing
conflicts or errors.

Common Atomic Classes in Java:

AtomicInteger: Provides atomic operations on an "int".
AtomicLong: Provides atomic operations on a "long".
AtomicBoolean: Provides atomic operations on a "boolean".
AtomicReference<T>: Provides atomic operations on an object "reference".
AtomicIntegerArray: Provides atomic operations on an array of "ints".
AtomicLongArray: Provides atomic operations on an array of "longs".

........spring framework.......

81. What is the Spring Framework?

The Spring Framework is a widely used, open-source framework for building Java
applications.
It provides comprehensive infrastructure support for developing robust and scalable
enterprise applications.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------
82. Explain dependency injection and inversion of control?
Dependency Injection (DI): is a design pattern used in software development to
achieve "loose coupling"
between components. It involves injecting required dependencies (objects) into a
class rather than
the class creating or managing them itself.

Inversion of Control (IoC):

Inversion of Control (IoC) is a broader principle where control of object creation,
configuration,
and lifecycle management is handed over to a container or framework instead of the
application itself.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------

83. What are Spring beans, and how are they configured?

In the Spring Framework, a bean is an object that is managed by the Spring IoC
(Inversion of Control) container.
Beans represent the building blocks of a Spring application, and the container
handles their lifecycle,
configuration, and dependencies.

How Are Beans Configured?

Beans can be configured in Spring in several ways:

1. XML-Based Configuration
Beans are defined in an XML file, typically "applicationContext.xml".

2. Annotation-Based Configuration
Spring provides annotations like "@Component, @Service, @Repository, and
@Controller" to define beans.

3. Java-Based Configuration
Use a class annotated with "@Configuration" to define beans programmatically

4. Spring Boot Auto-Configuration

In Spring Boot, beans are often auto-configured using the "@SpringBootApplication"
annotation.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

84. What is the difference between @Component, @Service, and @Repository?

In the Spring Framework, @Component, @Service, and @Repository are stereotype

annotations used to
indicate that a class is a Spring-managed bean

@Component
Definition:
A generic stereotype for any Spring-managed component.
It is the base annotation for @Service and @Repository.

@Service
Definition:
A specialization of @Component used to denote "service layer" classes.
Indicates that the class contains business logic or service-related operations.

@Repository
Definition:
A specialization of @Component for "persistence layer" classes.
Often used with DAO (Data Access Object) or "repository" patterns.
Automatically integrates exception translation for database-related exceptions into
Spring's
"DataAccessException".

Annotation Purpose Layer in Application

Additional Behavior
@Component Generic stereotype for any bean. Any layer. No specific
additional behavior.
@Service Denotes service or business logic. Service layer. No additional
behavior but conveys

business logic intent.

@Repository Denotes data access components. Persistence layer.
Enables exception translation
for
database exceptions.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------

85. Explain the concept of Spring Boot.

Spring Boot is a framework built on top of the Spring Framework. It makes it easy
to create standalone,
production-ready Java applications by reducing the need for complex configurations.

Simplified Configuration: Use simple ".properties" or ".yml" files for settings.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------

86. How is Spring MVC different from Spring Boot?

1.Purpose:

Spring MVC: Focuses on building web applications using the "Model-View-Controller"

(MVC) pattern.
Spring Boot: Simplifies Spring application development with "auto-configuration'"
and embedded servers.

2.Configuration:

Spring MVC: Requires "manual configuration" (XML or Java-based).

Spring Boot: Provides "auto-configuration", minimizing setup.

3.Startup Process:

Spring MVC: Requires separate deployment to a server.

Spring Boot: Runs directly via "SpringApplication.run()".

4.Focus Area:

Spring MVC: Specialized for "web applications" using the MVC pattern.
Spring Boot: Suitable for "microservices", standalone apps, and any Spring-based
application.

87. What is the purpose of Spring AOP?

The purpose of Spring AOP (Aspect-Oriented Programming) is to separate cross-
cutting concerns
(like logging, security, or transaction management) from the main business logic of
an application.

Instead of writing the same code in multiple places, you can define it once as an
aspect and apply
it automatically to the relevant parts of the application.

In simple terms, Spring AOP helps you add extra behavior to your
application without changing its main functionality.

88. Explain the role of the @Transactional annotation

The @Transactional annotation in Spring is used to manage transactions in a

declarative way.
It ensures that a method or a class is executed within a transaction, meaning that
all database
operations within the method are committed or rolled back together
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

89. What are the main features of Spring Security?

Spring Security is a powerful and customizable authentication and access control

framework for Java applications,
especially for Spring-based applications. It provides a wide range of features to
secure your application.

Here are the main features of Spring Security:

1.Authentication:

Verifies the identity of users, ensuring that they are who they say they are.
Supports various authentication methods, such as "username/password, OAuth, LDAP,
JWT, and form-based login"

2.Authorization (Access Control):

*Determines whether a user has the proper permissions to access a resource or

perform a specific action.
*Supports "role-based access control (RBAC)", where users are granted access based
on their roles
(e.g., ADMIN, USER).
*Fine-grained access control can be achieved using method-level security with
annotations
like @PreAuthorize or @Secured.

3.Session Management:

Manages user sessions and provides features like session fixation protection,
session expiration,
and concurrent session control.

90. How does Spring handle REST APIs?

Spring provides robust support for building RESTful APIs using its various modules,
especially Spring MVC
and Spring Boot. Here's how Spring handles REST APIs:

Spring handles REST APIs by providing flexible and powerful tools such as:

*Annotations like @RestController, @GetMapping, @PostMapping to define REST

endpoints.
*Automatic data binding between Java objects and JSON.
*Flexible handling of HTTP requests, response codes, and exceptions.
*Spring Boot simplifies the setup process for building production-ready REST APIs.

To build a REST API using Spring Boot, you can follow these steps:
1.Set up your project
2.Create the data model
3.Create the repository
4.Create the service layer
5.Create the controller
6.Configure the application properties
7.Run the application
