Assessing a candidate's ability to design scalable and efficient systems, focusing on architecture, scalability, database design, and trade-offs in different design choices.
#Scalability and Load BalancingIn an era where digital ecosystems are expanding exponentially, designing systems that scale efficiently and balance loads effectively is paramount. This blog explores the core principles of scalability and load balancing, delving into architectural strategies, algorithms, and real-world implementations. From horizontal scaling techniques to advanced load balancer algorithms, discover how to architect resilient, high-performance systems capable of handling massive traffic surges. Practical code snippets illustrate how modern technologies like NGINX, HAProxy, and cloud-native solutions implement these concepts, empowering developers and architects to build the next generation of scalable, robust digital infrastructures.
