  Subdomain Configuration

Subdomain ConfigurationA subdomain configuration is very similar to a domain name configuration. The only difference is that the subdomain entry is tied to the corresponding domain name lookup. A request for the subdomain (e.g. http://content.websitegear.com) will be routed to a DNS server containing the DNS information for the parent domain (websitegear.com). Once the DNS record for the subdomain is resolved to a particular IP address, the request is sent to the web server listening on that IP ...

  When will resizing be triggered in Java HashMap?

HashMap is one of the most frequently used collection types in Java, it stores key-value pairs. Ideally it expects to use hash table which expects the data access time complexity to be O(1), however, due to hash conflicts, in reality, it uses linked list or red-black tree to store data which makes the worst case time complexity to be O(logn).  Although collections are using data structures like arrays and linked lists, unlike arrays, they will dynamically resize when there is not enough spa...
