Ask HN: SICP equivalent for distributed system design
15 points by currio 1067 days ago
SICP is a good textbook for intermediatte (or advanced) students to learn about computer programming IMO.

Wondering if there is a equivalent for design and implementation of distributed systems.

Designing Data-Intensive Applications by Martin Kleppmann is fantastic. Great balance of breadth and depth, theoretical and practical.
It’s such a broad topic, but the book doesn’t cover resiliency. There’s no discussion of service meshes things like that.
I agree. Singlehandedly the reason for me passing my database exam. Very thorough and technical.
