Basic Distributed Systems Concepts
Overview of latency, throughput, concurrency, reliability, time, idempotency, and CAP/PACELC trade‑offs in distributed systems.
Overview of latency, throughput, concurrency, reliability, time, idempotency, and CAP/PACELC trade‑offs in distributed systems.
Master idempotent operations to enable safe retries and deliver reliable message processing without duplicates or missing data.
Clear definitions, interactions, and practical tuning to hit latency SLOs without sacrificing throughput.
Master patterns that transform inevitable failures into graceful degradation. Timeouts, circuit breakers, bulkheads, and more.
Master the foundation of resilience: timeouts prevent resource exhaustion, retries recover from transient failures, exponential backoff prevents overwhelming, jitter prevents thundering herd.
Push events to external systems reliably with webhooks
Master event-driven integrations: webhooks for server-initiated callbacks, signing for security, and handling idempotency and retries.
