| How did you improve the loading performance time in the last project you worked on in your company? | "In my last project, I improved loading performance by optimizing SQL queries. I focused on creating appropriate indexes on frequently queried columns, which significantly reduced data retrieval times. Additionally, I refactored complex queries to make them more efficient, removing unnecessary joins and selecting only the required fields instead of using SELECT *. We also implemented caching strategies to store results of expensive queries, reducing the load on the database. These optimizations, combined with regular analysis of query execution plans, helped us achieve faster response times and a more responsive application overall |
| In your projects, do you use clustered indexes or nonclustered indexes, and why? | I use both clustered and nonclustered indexes, depending on the situation. I typically use a clustered index on a table's primary key or another column where data is often retrieved in a specific order, as it determines the physical order of the data and speeds up range queries. For nonclustered indexes, I use them on columns frequently searched or filtered but not necessarily sorted. This allows for quick lookups and efficient data retrieval without altering the physical order of the table. The combination of both types of indexes helps optimize query performance based on the specific needs of the application |
| What are the potential downsides of using too many indexes on a table? | Slower Write Operations: Every INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE operation requires updating all relevant indexes, which can significantly slow down these write operations. Increased Storage Requirements: Each index takes up additional disk space, which can lead to increased storage costs, especially with large datasets. Index Maintenance: More indexes mean more overhead for the database engine to maintain and optimize, potentially leading to longer maintenance windows and higher resource consumption. Query Performance Degradation: Having too many indexes can sometimes confuse the query optimizer, leading it to choose suboptimal execution plans, which can degrade query performance rather than improve it. |
| In your last projects, have you ever worked with a cached database? | Yes, in my last project, I worked with a cached database using Redis. We integrated Redis to cache frequently accessed data, which significantly reduced the load on our primary database and improved response times. This was especially beneficial for high-traffic sections of the application where speed and performance were critical. Using Redis allowed us to deliver data quickly to the end-users while maintaining the overall efficiency of our backend systems |
| How can query optimization impact the overall performance of an application? | Query optimization can significantly enhance an application's performance by reducing response times, lowering server load, and improving user experience. Efficient queries use fewer resources, which leads to faster data retrieval, reduced CPU and memory usage, and better scalability. This ensures the application runs smoothly, even under heavy load, and helps maintain a responsive and reliable user experience." |
| Which cloud service did you use to deploy the database in your last commercial project | In my last commercial project, I used to work with database deployed in Microsoft Azure . We chose Azure because it integrates seamlessly with our .NET application stack, providing robust support for SQL Server through Azure SQL Database |
