Good resources for understanding Distributed Systems: - MIT course with Robert Morris (of Morris Worm fame): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQP8WApzIQQ&list=PLrw6a1wE39... - Martin Kleppmann (author of DDIA): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UEAMfLPZZhE&list=PLeKd45zvjc... If you can work through the above (and DDIA), you'll have a solid understanding of the issues in Distributed System, like Consensus, Causality, Split Brain, etc. You'll also gain a critical eye of Cloud Services and be able to articulate their drawbacks (ex: did you know that replication to DynamoDB Secondary Indexes is eventually consistent? What effects can that have on your applications?) |
