Gone are the days when monolithic applications were the norm. Most applications that we use today are too complex for that type of construction. Instead, most applications that appear as a single unit are actually built as a collection of inter-operating but independent computational components. Developers are expected to have mastery over a programming language or two. Moreover, they should also know the basics of distributed systems in order to succeed.

In this course, you’ll learn what a distributed system is, followed by the challenges unique to distributed systems. You’ll cover popular architectural patterns for achieving targets like replication and sharding. You’ll finish with a study of two popular distributed systems: Apache Spark and Apache Druid.

With the knowledge gained through this course, you’ll be able to design and develop distributed systems. You’ll be able to make optimal design and architectural choices based on the application requirements.
