  • Concurrency control
  • Distributed coordination
  • Locking strategies
  • Race condition handling
  • Synchronization concepts

Idempotency

  • Idempotent APIs
  • Retry-safe operations
  • Payment and booking system workflows
  • Duplicate request handling
  • Transaction safety

Modular Monolith Architecture

  • Service modularization
  • Shared contracts
  • Internal boundaries
  • Maintainability strategies
  • Migration considerations

Publisher-Subscriber Architecture

  • Event-driven systems
  • Asynchronous communication
  • Decoupled service interaction
  • Messaging workflows

Scarcity Concurrency

  • High-demand resource allocation
  • Movie ticket booking concurrency
  • Inventory locking
  • Overselling prevention
  • Concurrent transaction handling

Goals Of This Repository

  • Build strong backend engineering fundamentals
  • Explore scalable system design patterns
  • Understand real-world production tradeoffs
