Designing a great system takes years of accumulated knowledge. One shortcut is to delve into real-world system architectures. Here are some readings to help with your studies. We strongly recommend that you pay attention to both the shared principles and the underlying technology. Studying each technique and understanding what problem it solves is a great way to enhance your knowledge base and improve your design process.

Hello, I am Shisan, a veteran driver who has been developing for 7 years, and a foreign company for 5 years in the Internet for 2 years. I can beat Ah San and Lao Mei, and I have also been ruined by PR comments. Over the years, I have worked part-time, started a business, took over private work, and mixed upwork. Made money and lost money. Along the way, my deepest feeling is that no matter what you learn, you must keep learning. As long as you can persevere, it is easy to achieve corner overtaking! So don't ask me if it's too late to do what I do now. If you still have no direction, you can follow me [public account: More AI (power_ai)], where I will often share some cutting-edge information and programming knowledge to help you accumulate capital for cornering and overtaking.
