LLD - Advanced LLD Concepts

AAdd locks around every access to the mutable object.

BReplace the shared object with an immutable configuration instance passed by value.

CAllow threads to modify the shared object but reset it periodically.

DUse global variables to store configuration for faster access.

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Identify immutability benefit in concurrency
Immutable objects prevent race conditions by disallowing changes.
Step 2: Choose solution using immutability
Replacing shared mutable object with immutable instance passed by value avoids conflicts.
Final Answer:
Replace the shared object with an immutable configuration instance passed by value. -> Option B
