This module introduces the fundamentals of system design, explaining the importance of scalable architecture in modern applications. You’ll learn the basics of High-Level Design (HLD) and Low-Level Design (LLD), understanding how to approach system problems logically and structure your solutions for interviews.
Learn about the essential building blocks of scalable systems, including Load Balancers, Caching, Message Queues, and Database Sharding. This module teaches how these components interact to handle traffic efficiently and improve performance in real-world applications.
Understand the differences between SQL and NoSQL databases, replication strategies, indexing, and data partitioning. You’ll gain practical knowledge of designing data models that support high availability, consistency, and scalability in large-scale systems.
Apply your learning to practical examples like URL Shortener, Chat App, Instagram Feed System, and Google Docs Collaborative System. You’ll analyze real-world systems, learn design trade-offs, and see how scalable architectures are implemented in production.
Learn to design RESTful APIs, understand API Gateway concepts, and explore microservice architecture. This module focuses on building modular, maintainable backend systems that can scale to meet enterprise requirements.
Master creating professional architecture diagrams and learn key scalability principles. This module teaches how to visualize systems clearly, justify design choices, and communicate your solutions effectively in interviews.
