Grokking the Modern System Design Interview

Grokking the Modern System Design Interview

Comprehensive Coverage of Real-World Use Cases
The course includes detailed modules on designing systems like YouTube, Quora, Google Maps, Uber, Twitter, and more. Each module breaks down the design process into manageable steps:

Requirements Gathering: Understanding what the system needs to achieve.
High-Level Design: Outlining the major components and their interactions.
Detailed Design: Diving into each component's specifics.
Evaluation: Assessing the design's scalability, reliability, and performance.
Interactive Learning with AI-Powered Features
AI-Powered Code Feedback: Instant feedback on coding exercises ensures that we can iterate and improve our solutions promptly.

Mock Interviews: Simulated interviews provide a realistic practice environment, helping us get accustomed to the pressure and format of actual interviews.

Explanations and Prompts: Detailed explanations aid in solidifying our understanding, while prompts guide us through complex problem-solving steps.

Hands-On Practice with Diverse Problems
The course offers a wide array of system design problems categorized by difficulty:

Easy: Designing URL Shorteners, Text Storage Services, and simple utility systems like Parking Garages or Vending Machines.
Medium: Tackling more complex systems like Instagram, Tinder, Facebook, Twitter, and Netflix.
Hard: Addressing grand-scale challenges like Location-Based Services, Uber, Food Delivery Apps, Google Docs, Google Maps, Zoom, File Sharing Systems, Ticket Booking Systems, Distributed Web Crawlers, Code Deployment Systems, Distributed Cloud Storage, and Distributed Locking Services.
By working through these varied problems, we not only enhance our technical skills but also develop a strategic mindset to approach different types of system design questions.

Additional Course Benefits
Foundational Knowledge: The course begins with essential concepts like abstractions, non-functional requirements, and back-of-the-envelope calculations.
Building Blocks: It covers critical components like load balancers, databases, and messaging queues.
Quizzes and AI Feedback: Interactive quizzes and AI evaluations help reinforce learning.
RESHADED Approach: Introduces a systematic method to approach system design problems.
