Thanks.

This has been my approach thus far. The place where I work allows for practical applications of this (scaling systems to millions of requests per second, having no downtime operations, doing BCP/DR, etc.)

2 things on this - Learning by doing sometimes feels like spending time on discovering things that would have been obvious given the right resources to look at - It's still easier for non-functional aspects of system where there can be quicker feedback. The more abstract part to me is functional design of large systems

For e.g., there are great resources for more "basic" patterns (on Java design patterns, Effective Java, Clean Code, etc.). Are there such resources for roles beyond SSE?
