Can a simple delay really cost a company millions? We kick off season two of the Learn System Design podcast by exploring this and more. I'm Benny Kitchell, your host, and after a refreshing hiatus, I'm excited to bring you a fresh take on system design interviews and real-world applications. We start with the fundamentals of functional requirements using a relatable example: a music streaming app like Spotify. Discover how to align core functionalities such as song playback, playlist creation, and music recommendations with stakeholder expectations, setting the stage for effective system design.
This episode also delves into the intricacies of caching systems, the critical role of TTL (Time To Live), and the balancing act required by the CAP theorem. We address the importance of understanding both functional and non-functional requirements, emphasizing stakeholder input to ensure a robust design. Key concepts like latency, durability, and partition tolerance are unpacked, highlighting their impact on user experience and system stability. Tune in to gain valuable insights that will not only prepare you for system design interviews but also enhance your technical prowess in the field. Thank you for joining us on this journey; your support means the world!
