Feeling before of a your project to go live

If you are on an Implementation support, the only thing which you want is code freeze, so that you can relax a bit. Thanks to all us for the hard work we had done in last 6 months, we are close to code freeze. We are congratulated by our peers for the effort before Christmas. Although we are also delighted for making such a huge effort, and planned holidays, much deserved holidays after tiring 6 months. Thank God India Australia series is starting after this, else we would have just read the news, now we can be spectators.

Firstly, I like to congrats ourselves for our terrific effort to bring the software on correct path. Hats off to our dedication, peer support and never say die attitude to make this happened. Its not easy without such an effort from the team that bank (NGP) is ready to GO LIVE on the said date. It proves if we work hard then even “Impossible” will say I’M’POSSIBLE. Three cheers to the team. This can only happen due to dedicated effort of team which is short of sleep. Also the peer support was unbelievable, though there are ups and downs in such a big project. But we have to work hard looking forward in the one direction of success.

I have already mentioned that providing a banking solution is too much complicated, as you have to dealt with one basic fundamental. You have to develop a software in such a way that Customer should always feel satisfied in any chance along with your client, i.e. Bank, who wants to earn money through Customer. Also, in the era where technologies are changing to rapidly, that you cannot guarantee that in coming years your product will meet the challenges or the demands of the clients. But still in the current era and with the given system, if you able to deliver a class product within the given time frame is always a plus point, which not only brings your company to the front foot, but also brings your confidence and your career to a fast path.

To be a part of such a project is every newcomers dream in this industry, and I can see myself living my dream. I started my journey with the start of this project in IT sector. From requirement gathering till implementations support, I am part of this project. Its a long way. though I was not part of requirement gathering, but I can see the changes in the functional documents on which this project is driven through. Its just a start of this project. In the mean time, many people left the organization, many new faces joined the organizations, in the midst of all this, this project shaped very well with time, due to the peers sitting over to monitor every activity of their subordinates.
Not only our company is waiting for this project to go live, but other financial world is watching this project closely. I just started my career, so I don't have much idea, how this project is such important. But, after listening to my seniors I can feel that.

Listener refused the connection due to NetExcepti​on

I was testing some piece of code for calculation of new date on the basis of a given pattern and the specified date. I wrote a method to automate the test cases to generates those patterns and calculate the new date for each date of the specified date of the range of years. Since there were around 1 million pattern test cases are possible, so I want to insert this data in database for any future reference. After creating a pattern I was inserting data of the pattern and the calculation date along with the calculated date. It was working fine. I was prepare to hit the start button now, after testing different patterns individually. I hit the run button and it started its executions, but in the middle, I got this error. java.sql.SQLException: Listener refused the connection with the following error:ORA-12516, TNS:listener could not find available handler with matching protocol stack       at oracle.jdbc.driver.T4CConnection.logon(T4CConnection.java:4...

Bitmap index

Bitmap index is one of the index types that is supported by oracle. Unlike B*tree index, this is very compressed index. It means if I create a bitmap index on a column, then the generated index table will be smaller when compared the index table which is generated by the binary index on the same column. The reason is, in bitmap index, ROWIDs won’t be stored in the index table, instead index values will be mapped against bitmaps. Bitmap is nothing but it stores either of this values, 1(Match) or 0(No Match). For each distinct values in the column, a separate index record will be created. Unlike b*tree index, bitmap index can accept NULL and it creates separate index entry for this. Bitmap index will work better if number of distinct values are relatively less when compared to the total number of records. Why is it referred as “relatively less”? this index will work fine if table of 1,000,000,000 records contains 5000 distinct values and if table of 1,000 records contains 5 distinct va...

Index Fast Full Scan

Index Fast Full Scan is one of the index access methods supported by Oracle. Index Fast Full Scan is otherwise called as Fast Full Index Scan also. Index Fast Full Scan can be imposed by Oracle Optimizer only in the certain scenario. The scenario where this index would be invoked is, Whenever the Oracle SQL optimizer detects that the query is serviceable without touching table rows, Oracle invokes this fast full index scan and quickly reads every block of the index without touching the table itself provided that query doesn’t contain any ORDER BY clause. The definition for this scan is more or less similar to the index full scan but the only difference is that former  will be invoked when ORDER BY clause is not mentioned in the query. It differs from the index full scan in another way where output won’t be in the sorted order since ORDER BY clause is not mentioned. If Oracle detects the query is serviceable without touching the table rows, it means, all the columns mentioned i...
