Interview Preparation - Related to Data!!

 Solving 200-300 good Leetcode problems will only help you clear 50% of the rounds. You still have to master system design basics.


I struggled a lot until I sat down and focused deeply on the basics. Start with these 11 basic & essential concepts:

1. Scalability
- Ensures systems can handle increased load and grow efficiently.

2. Latency vs Throughput
- Balances speed and capacity in system performance.

3. CAP Theorem
- Explains the trade-offs between consistency, availability, and partition tolerance in distributed systems.

4. ACID Transactions
- Guarantees reliable database processing through atomicity, consistency, isolation, and durability.

5. Rate Limiting
- Controls the amount of incoming and outgoing traffic to prevent overload and abuse.

6. API Design
- Ensures APIs are user-friendly, efficient, and maintainable.

7. Strong vs Eventual Consistency
- Balances the need for immediate data consistency versus eventual data accuracy in distributed systems.

8. Distributed Tracing
- Helps monitor and debug complex, distributed systems by tracking requests across multiple services.

9. Synchronous vs Asynchronous Communications
- Determines how systems interact, either waiting for responses (synchronous) or continuing independently (asynchronous).

10. Batch Processing vs Stream Processing
- Differentiates between processing large volumes of data at once (batch) and processing data in real-time (stream).

11. Fault Tolerance
- Ensures systems remain operational despite failures or errors.

  AI Developers: Reference Links: 1. Basic overview of Gen AI, AI agent and Agentic AI:   https://youtube.com/watch?v=O2gerCxEXvc&feature=shared 2. How to select LLm Models to build Gen AI: https://huggingface.co/spaces/lmarena-ai/chatbot-arena-leaderboard 3. When to train code agents with own data. Ideally this is suited for Products based companies who owns huge code base and domain specific codes. Since services companies doesn't own much of code, not suitable for them. Here are the 3 approaches,      1. For General Purpose code - use pretrained modesl - GPT-4, CodeLlama     2. For Doamin specific and consistency with local code and security purpose - Train Model     3. Hybrid Approach - Use Pretrain model as base.   Fine-tune or  embed your codebase  into a retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) system.  This allows the model to  reference your code   without full retraining. When to Use Whic...

 1 . Design Principles  SOLID Single Responsibility Principle (SRP) Open/Closed Principle (OCP) Liskov Substitution Principle (LSP) Interface Segregation Principle (ISP) Dependency Inversion Principle (DIP) DRY (Don’t Repeat Yourself) KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid) Other Important Principles YAGNI (You Ain’t Gonna Need It) Convention over Configuration (CoC) Composition over Inheritance Law of Demeter (LoD) 2. Design Patterns: 1. Creational: Pattern Purpose Abstract Factory Create families of related objects without specifying concrete classes Builder Construct complex objects step by step Factory Method Define interface for creating objects, let subclasses decide instantiation Prototype Create new objects by cloning existing ones Singleton Ensure a class has only one instance and provide global access   2 . Structural Pattern Purpose Adapter Conve...
