I learned these lessons late. They make your systems reliable.
Learn these 7 ideas:
- Replication: Copy data across nodes.
- Sharding: Divide data to scale.
- Consensus: Make nodes agree on a value.
- Leader election: Choose one node to lead.
- Eventual consistency: Let data sync over time.
- Distributed transactions: Keep data consistent across services.
- Idempotency: Prevent duplicate actions.
These concepts stop common bugs. They help you scale.
