Principles of Object Oriented Design

Tue, 10 Jan 2017 07:53:47 +0000

Intro Here is a list of main principles of Object Oriented Design (OOD) with short description of them. I’ll provide detailed descriptions for some of the principles in later posts. OOD principles can be divided into two groups. The first group well known and named SOLID (has 5 principles) and describes class design. The second group (6 principles) is related to the packaging of the application. Principles from these group describe how package and component design helps us to organize large application into packages or components.

Partitioning in Relational databases

Wed, 21 Dec 2016 07:08:59 +0000

Introduction Partitioning is a process of dividing a table into multiple smaller pieces, where each piece of such a database object is called a partition. This tutorial describes what is Partitioning and provided an example of Range partitioning in PostgreSQL database. Benefits of partitioning Query performance could be increased when: most of the heavily accessed rows of the table are in a single partition or a small number of partitions. queries or updates access a large percentage of a single partition because of sequential scan of that partition instead of using an index and random access reads scattered across the whole table Seldom-used data can be migrated to cheaper and slower storage media Performing maintenance operations on one or more partitions can be made more quickly.

SQL Query explain plan and Optimization

Mon, 05 Dec 2016 19:20:00 +0000

Query optimization is determination by relational database the most efficient way to execute a given query by considering the possible query plans. Mostly query optimizer is used by databases for optimizing the query in the best possible way. User doesn’t work directly with query optimizer. But some queries can be optimized by exploring its execution plan. Prepare test data Before we dive into queries optimizations and explain plan, let’s prepare a table with test data.

Indexes into Relational Databases

Tue, 29 Nov 2016 18:35:55 +0000

A database index is a data structure that improves the speed of data retrieval operations on a database table (increase database performance). But such performance has a cost of additional writes to hard drive and storage space to maintain the index data structure. In nutshell, index is a quick path to a single row into database. Indexes allow us to go directly to he required column without scanning the entire database table.

SQL Transactions and ACID

Sun, 27 Nov 2016 14:50:12 +0000

Transaction is a sequence of one or more SQL operations treated as a logical unit. Transaction could be completed either entirely successfully or not executed at all. Transactions and locking are important aspects of database for supporting multiple users. Into this tutorial we’ll take a look atTransaction, ACID, Isolation Levels. ACID Transaction must have the following properties called ACID, which means the following: Atomicity: means that transaction must happen as a single unit and exactly once.

PostgreSQL functions

Wed, 23 Nov 2016 23:14:00 +0000

PostgreSQL has a lot of built-in functions, such as Trigonometric Functions, String Functions, IP address functions, etc. But we’re not limited by built-in functions. PostgreSQL (as well as other RDBMS) allows creating custom functions. In this tutorial we will take a look at user-defined functions. PostgreSQL supports the following programming languages for writing functions: SQL PL/pgSQL C PL/Python PL/Tcl some other languages Create functions with PL/pgSQL Functions written in PL/pgSQL can contain a variable declaration, conditional and looping constructions, exception handling and so on.

PostgreSQL data types cheat sheet

Sun, 06 Nov 2016 14:52:39 +0000

In this tutorial I will show main PostgreSQL data types such as Boolean, Character, Number, Temporal. Also I will describe when and how we can use them. By the way, Postgres is not limited by the mentioned data types. It also supports such types like JSON, Monetary, Geometric , Network Addresses, etc. The full list of supported data types could be found here: Data Types Boolean Data Type The boolean type (could be shortened to bool) can store only 2 possible values true or false and NULLin case when value is unknown.

Java: Ambitious method call

Sun, 30 Oct 2016 18:25:36 +0000

Ambicious method call error occurs when Java compiler doesn’t know which of the overloaded method to call. Let’s assume that we have the following overloaded methods: first method accepts the String parameter and prints it. The second method accepts Integer parameter and also prints it. public void print(String param) { System.out.println("Printing parameter + "param" + " as String"); } and public void print(Integer param) { System.out.println("Printing parameter + " + param + " as Integer"); } Calling one of the methods into the following way print(null) will attempt to the error like this:

SQL Data Definition Language for Database in PostgreSQL

Fri, 14 Oct 2016 19:47:42 +0000

As was described into my previous post SQL Commands Types cheat sheet Data Definition Language, or just DDL, is a set of commands for creating, deleting, renaming databases and tables. In this tutorial I will describe how to use DDL with databases(schemes). PostgreSQL will be used for demonstration. How to setup PostgreSQL (and PgAdmin3) on Ubuntu please refer to this tutorial: How to install PostgreSQL on Ubuntu 16.04 CREATE database CREATE DATABASE blog; PostgreSQL will create a database named blog with default parameters.

SQL Commands Types cheat sheet

Tue, 11 Oct 2016 14:39:00 +0000

SQL language includes four types of command. In this tutorial I will describe them shortly. Data Definition Language (DDL) DDL is a set of commands for creating, deleting, renaming databases and tables. CREATE Creates a new database or a table. ALTER Modifies the structure of a database or a table. DROP Deletes a database or a table. TRUNCATE Removes all table records, including allocated table spaces. Data Manipulation Language (DML) DML is a set of commands for inserting, deleting, updating and selecting data from the database.

How to install maven on OpenSUSE

Sun, 09 Oct 2016 00:18:56 +0000

By default OpenSUSE Linux distribution doesn’t have Maven into its repositories because of tons of dependencies which needed for Maven. But in spite of this Maven installation is straightforward in OpenSUSE. In this tutorial I will show how to install Maven from its official web site. First of all we need to download Maven from the official web site. There 2 types of archives there: tar.gz and zip. In this tutorial we will install Maven from the tar.

Git: How to remove merged branches locally

Sat, 08 Oct 2016 22:56:08 +0000

Git is a free and open source distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency. Also Git is a very powerful tool. Git supports branches. And branches in git cost almost nothing. As a result when we create a new feature, we create a “feature branch”, work there. When a feature is complete the “feature branch” is merged to development or master branch.
