Key System Design Concepts

1. Scalability Vertical vs Horizontal Q: How will this scale?
2. Latency vs Throughput Trade-offs for optimizing systems
3. CAP Theorem Distributed DB trade-offs
4. Availability vs Consistency Social vs financial systems
⚙️ Traffic Handling & Performance
  • Load Balancing: L4 vs L7, health checks
  • Caching: Cache-aside, write-through, TTL
  • CDN: Content delivery for video/images
  • Rate Limiting: Protect APIs from abuse
  • Autoscaling: Dynamic resource allocation for cloud
🗄️ Data Layer
  • SQL vs NoSQL: Which DB and why?
  • Database Indexing: Reasons for slow queries
  • Replication: Scaling reads, high availability
  • Sharding: Scaling writes, large datasets
  • Consistency Models: Strong vs eventual
  • Backup Strategies: Disaster recovery & backup types
🔄 Async & Distributed Systems
  • Message Queues: Decoupling services
  • Event-Driven: Pub/Sub architectures
  • Idempotency: Safe retries
  • Distributed Txns: 2-phase commit basics
  • Leader Election: High availability in clusters
  • Service Discovery: Dynamic microservices communication
🏗️ System Architecture
  • Microservices vs Monolith: Common interview Q
  • API Design: REST, versioning, pagination
  • Fault Tolerance: Retries, circuit breakers
  • Observability: Logging, metrics, tracing
  • Security: Rate limiting, OAuth, DDoS prevention
— All concepts come with in-depth examples and real engineering trade-offs —
