Q:

What is Autosys?

Answer

AutoSys is an automated job control system for scheduling, monitoring, and reporting. These jobs can reside on any AutoSys-configured machine that is attached to a network.


 


However, in real business, you need to fire jobs not just based on scheduled time, but also based on events (like an arrival of a file), and, based on the success or failure of other jobs. Autosys is a total job scheduling solution that allows you to define these events, dependencies, time schedules, alerts, etc, making it a complete data center automation tool.

Q:

Difference between Arraylist and Linked list?

Answer

ArrayList and LinkedList both implements List interface and maintains insertion order. Both are non synchronized classes.


 


But there are many differences between ArrayList and LinkedList classes that are given below.


 

ArrayList    V/s     LinkedList ::


 

1) ArrayList internally uses dynamic array to store the elements.


                   Whereas


LinkedList internally uses doubly linked list to store the elements.


 

2) Manipulation with ArrayList is slow because it internally uses array. If any element is removed from the array, all the bits are shifted in memory.


                   Whereas


Manipulation with LinkedList is faster than ArrayList because it uses doubly linked list so no bit shifting is required in memory.


 

3) ArrayList class can act as a list only because it implements List only.


                   Whereas


LinkedList class can act as a list and queue both because it implements List and Deque interfaces.


 

4) ArrayList is better for storing and accessing data.


                   Whereas


LinkedList is better for manipulating data.
