System Design
System Design & Systems Programming
Core concepts and topics in system design, operating systems, and distributed systems that I'm studying
🚧 This page is still under construction. More content and notes will be added soon.
System Design
Scalable architecture patterns, design principles, and real-world system implementations
Load Balancing & High Availability
Understanding different load balancing algorithms, health checks, and failover strategies
Caching Strategies
Cache invalidation, CDN, distributed caching, and cache patterns
Database Design & Scaling
SQL vs NoSQL, sharding, replication, CAP theorem, and consistency models
Message Queues & Event Streaming
Kafka, RabbitMQ, pub/sub patterns, and event-driven architecture
Operating Systems
Process management, memory systems, file systems, and kernel internals
Process Scheduling & Concurrency
CPU scheduling algorithms, context switching, threads, and synchronization primitives
Memory Management
Virtual memory, paging, segmentation, and memory allocation strategies
File Systems
Inodes, directory structures, journaling, and distributed file systems
I/O Subsystems
Device drivers, interrupt handling, DMA, and storage hierarchies
Distributed Systems
Consensus algorithms, distributed transactions, and fault tolerance
Consensus Algorithms
Raft, Paxos, Byzantine fault tolerance, and leader election
Distributed Transactions
Two-phase commit, Saga pattern, and eventual consistency
Service Discovery & Configuration
Service mesh, API gateways, and configuration management
Monitoring & Observability
Distributed tracing, metrics collection, and logging strategies
