๐ Introduction to My 100 Days of System Design
Welcome to my 100 Days of System Design blog series! ๐ Over the next 100 days, Iโll be diving deep into the world of system design, exploring various concepts, patterns, and architectural principles that power the complex systems we interact with daily.
๐ ๏ธ Why System Design?
In todayโs technology-driven world, the ability to design robust, scalable, and efficient systems is a crucial skill for software engineers and architects. ๐งโ๐ป Whether youโre building a small application or a large-scale distributed system, understanding the fundamentals of system design is essential to creating solutions that can handle growth, provide high availability, and ensure data integrity. ๐
๐ What to Expect?
Each day, I will cover a different topic related to system design. ๐งฉ These topics will range from foundational concepts like scalability and load balancing to more advanced discussions on microservices architecture, distributed databases, and real-time data processing. The goal is to provide a comprehensive guide that not only explains the theory behind these topics but also offers practical insights into how they can be applied in real-world scenarios. ๐
๐ฏ Who Is This For?
This blog series is for anyone interested in system design, whether youโre a student, a software developer, or an experienced engineer looking to refresh your knowledge. ๐ฉโ๐๐จโ๐ป If youโve ever wondered how large-scale systems like Netflix, Google, or Amazon are designed, this series will help demystify those processes and give you the tools to think like a system architect. ๐๏ธ
๐๏ธ How Will It Be Structured?
Day 1-30: Weโll start with the basics, covering core concepts and principles that form the foundation of system design. ๐ ๏ธ
Day 31-60: Weโll move on to intermediate topics, exploring common design patterns, data management strategies, and performance optimization techniques. ๐ฆ
Day 61-90: Weโll tackle advanced topics, such as distributed systems, microservices, and cloud-native architectures. โ๏ธ
Day 91-100: In the final stretch, weโll discuss real-world case studies, looking at how these principles are applied in the design of some of the most successful and scalable systems in the industry. ๐
๐ฏ Why 100 Days?
The idea of committing to 100 days of learning comes from the notion that consistent, focused effort can lead to significant growth and mastery over time. ๐ By dedicating time each day to exploring these topics, youโll not only deepen your understanding of system design but also develop a habit of continuous learning that will benefit you throughout your career. ๐
