First, congratulations on completing this challenging course! We hope the journey of the “Grokking the Product Architecture Design Interview” course has been a good one for you. Best of luck with applying the learned concepts in real-life applications.
In this course, we learned the importance of API design and understood the necessary principles to orchestrate effective and efficient APIs based on a defined set of requirements. Before designing, we focused on some vital design concepts to help us design reliable, scalable, and maintainable APIs.
This course had an incremental difficulty level, where each section served as a background or prerequisite for the next section. For instance, foundational design problems served as building blocks and allowed us to focus on the interesting business aspects of an API. We coined the REDCAMEL approach to ...
