 Q571. Difference between NAT Instances and NAT GatewayAmazon Web Services (AWS)
Ans. High bandwidth and availability in NAT Gateway
NAT Gateway is completely managed by AWS
NAT Gateway is auto scalable
NAT Instance is just like EC2 instance and hence backed by security group
NAT Instance can be used as bastion host whereas NAT Gateway cannot be.

 Q572. When singleton can break and how to resolve itDesign
Ans. Deserialization. In serialization, we can save the object of a byte stream into a file or send over a network. Suppose if you serialize the Singleton class, and then again de-serialize that object, it will create a new instance, hence deserialization will break the Singleton pattern.

To overcome this issue, we need to override readResolve() method in the Singleton class and return the same Singleton instance.

 Q573. why string pool concept for only String but not for StringBuffer ?Core Java
Ans. As String is immutable so by maintaining pool area we can refer the object to same area if they are with same content. But when it comes to string buffer or builder then due to mutable property if we do so then all the objects referring to that area will from now has new content.. So as to avoid this pool is present only in string.

 Q578. If you are given choice to either load object eagerly or lazily , which one would you use in case of singleton pattern ?Design
Ans. I would choose Eager as the cost for 1 additional object is too minute for any such consideration.

Eager Loading results in Faster access ( Object available at load time) at the cost of additional space.

Lazy loading results in space saving ( Object available at first use ) at the cost of access speed.

 Q583. What is concurrent interface ?Core Java
Ans. ConcurrentMap is an interface and it is a member of the Java Collections Framework. It represents a Map that is capable of handling concurrent access to it without affecting the consistency of entries in a map. ConcurrentMap interface present in java.util.concurrent package.

HashMap operations are not synchronized, while Hashtable provides synchronization. Though Hashtable is thread-safe, it is not very efficient. To solve this issue, the Java Collections Framework introduced ConcurrentMap in Java 1.5.

 Q586. What is cyclic instantiation ? Have you ever faced any problem due to this ?OOP
Ans. Cyclic instantiation in OOPs may happen if Class A loading results in Class B Loading , and then Class B Loading results in Class C loading and then Class C has a static reference to Class A and hence results in cyclic instantiation or loading.

 Q587. Why cannot we initialize a final field within the constructor if the initialization is within try block ?Core Java
Ans. What if the initialization throws an exception. In that case , it will let it move forward without initializing the final field. So it's a way to enforce that either the field is initialized or it fails completely.

Frequently asked to fresh graduates.
 Q598. What are the difference between Threads and Processes ?Operating System
Ans. 1. when an OS wants to start running program it creates new process means a process is a program that is currently executing and every process has at least one thread running within it.
2). A thread is a path of code execution in the program, which has its own local variables, program counter(pointer to current execution being executed) and lifetime.
3. When the JavaVirtual Machine (JavaVM, or just VM) is started by the operating system, a new process is created. Within that process, many threads can be created.
4. Consider an example : when you open Microsoft word in your OS and you check your task manger then you can see this running program as a process. now when you write something in opened word document, then it performs more than one work at same time like it checks for the correct spelling, it formats the word you enter , so within that process ( word) , due to different path execution(thread) all different works are done at same time.
5. Within a process , every thread has independent path of execution but there may be situation where two threads can interfere with each other then concurrency and deadlock come is picture.
6. like two process can communicate ( ex:u open an word document and file explorer and on word document you drag and drop another another file from file explorer), same way two threads can also communicate with each other and communication with two threads is relatively low.
7. Every thread in java is created and controlled by unique object of java.lang.Thread class.
8. prior to jdk 1.5, there were lack in support of asynchronous programming in java, so in that case it was considered that thread makes the runtime environment asynchronous and allow different task to perform concurrently.

 Q599. Why java doesn't support multiple Inheritence ?Core Java
Ans. class A {
void test() {
System.out.println("test() method");
}
}

class B {
void test() {
System.out.println("test() method");
}
}

Suppose if Java allows multiple inheritance like this,

class C extends A, B {
}

A and B test() methods are inheriting to C class.

So which test() method C class will take? As A & B class test() methods are different , So here we would Facing Ambiguity.

 Q600. Why threads block or enters to waiting state on I/O?Operating System
Ans. Threads enters to waiting state or block on I/O because other threads can execute while the I/O operations are performed.
