It's focussed more on data-oriented applications though. +* [The System Design Manual](https://systemdesignmanual.com/) Covers the core aspects of distributed systems, like: network fundamentals, the theory underpinning distributed systems, architectural patterns of scalable systems, stability patterns that harden systems against failures and operational best-practices on how to maintain large-scale systems with a small team. + These talks should give you a starting point on how to think about such problems. ## Basics
