Would system designing teach me most of this?
I needed this video. Man, I have no clue why i skipped over your videos for so long. I have been starving for content that helps me understand concepts vs tool. Thank you.
i dont understand backend engineering i thought it was just what you do to store web application data, using a server and database im so confused please help im not even sure what a database is
@Hussein Nasser....Sir,Is it a good choice to learn Java (Spring) for Backend Engineering?

I dont know why YT algorithm suggested me channel so late. This channel is like the the golden resource for Backend Engineering in a world full of okay resources.
Right?! Nobody goes in depth on the Backend stuff.
When I see comments like this I subscribe instantly lmao
Please if someone is trying InstaPortal just check the reddit link which is the second Google search result and you will find its reality 🙂
be careful, the algorithm is listening and you don't want to hurt its feelings
do you have suggestions for another golden channel like this?
"If you call yourself an expert, I don't think you know enough." Totally with you brother.
Expert never knows enough, and silence is gold.
TH-cam recommendation algorithm bit weird , it suggests this wonderful channel after so long .
Thanks Hussian Nasser for knowledge sharing .
I am Glad you found it! Enjoy the content 😊
@@hnasr I want become node developer . please suggest topic "must require for junior node developer" .
That's a sign to study the backend . So you can in future enhance TH-cam algorithm 😂🤘
@@hnasr I found it from recommendation also agree to K23raj :D
I didn't come across this channel by the algorithm, but because I have been deliberately searching for information on a backend engineering path, and have been disappointed at the overwhelming lack of resources to get started. Thank you Hussein, for creating this.

Hey guys, Thank you SO MUCH for the love and support I am so Glad you are enjoying the content. This new website will help serve as an index to my backend engineering content as the content keeps growing. I think this will help you consume the content at your pace. The levels are assigned based on my personal assessment.
Enjoy and hope it helps ❤️

What a great day to be alive that I found your channel. I am literally subbed to more than 150 tech channels and watch very niche computer science engg stuff but tbh you are someone who really wants his audience to get educated. Words fall short for your appreciation. I just added you to the list of people I want to meet in my life. Really admire your work. This is the first time I’m writing a heartfelt message. Thank you Hussein.

Great outline of backend development fundamentals. meanwhile, are there any good books that specializes in backend development that you can recommend us?
Thanks so much, this channel is what I'm looking for months. I saw there are a lot of front-end videos, but it's hard to find a backend roadmap video because it's something that people hardly see with our own eyes (not like UI, UX). Thanks for doing this!
This is gold, exactly what I have been expecting, not only about coding or doing database CRUD or APIs. Thank you much !,
How to become a expert backend engineer: "Learn 100 languages and frameworks that will be obsolete by next year and never have any free leisure time for friends or family because you are constantly learning technologies that will be obsolete soon while you managers and CEO get paid 10 times your salary for working a fraction of the time you do."
@@BillClinton228 Bueno al menos lo que dice es real, pero no esta del todo perdido, aprendes cosas siempre
@@BillClinton228 isn't it the same with other developers? LUL
@@BillClinton228 😂😂
@@avreudm7225 (if deepl translation is correct), Estoy completamente de acuerdo, por mucho que nos quejemos, las cosas no van a cambiar durante un tiempo y ¿no aprendemos estas cosas por gusto? A fin de cuentas, lo que ha dicho Yo es una exageración salvaje, Aunque algunos de los puntos mencionados por Yo es tristemente cierto.
"If you think yourself as an expert, I don't think you know enough" absolutely agree with you, the more you learn the more awareness you acquire of your own ignorance. Loving your channel, I feel guilty for being able to get all this knowledge for free. Thank you so much.
Ive been looking for this for years! I just dont have enough words to thank you!
This channel is SO underrated
I'd place it right where the big guys are, like Traversy Media
This video is so motivating and so inspirational. I have just started my career as a backend dev and I cannot believe how beautiful my profession is. Thank you Nasser for creating this content. I hope I meet you someday in person. Cannot express enough! Fired up and ready to code!!
This is for sure a very good overview on what the backend has to offer. Thank you very much for making this video, it clarifies a lot of the possible paths on the backend!
This channel should have a million views. Hard to find such quality content.
Seriously. So much crap out there
I am a fan of you! Keep working the videos ;)
I've been a backend engineer for two years now. It was my first job. Somehow I feel like I don't understand much about what I've built. I might able to create a decent app using django or so, but I feel like I miss a lot of fundamentals.
I realized it more when I got laid off because of covid and got rejected in many technical interviews. I feel I couldn't answer the technical question well enough, because I just know without understand. Always gave up
Your video saved me today. Now I'm starting to see a clear picture on where should I learn. After scrolled down your channel, oh God I wish I've met you back then at college man.
This is way more useful for me than you intended to. I felt lost and now I'm seeing a tiny light to pursue.
Never subscribed to anyone with this much gratefulness, hats off to you
Ardy Jovi I am very happy that the content is helpful Ardy! Thanks for your kind words. Keep learning and see what you absolutely like and question everything 🙏
@@hnasr 💪💪 keep the spirit to create another great contents man, I like the way you explain things
What questions were you asked??
I m kinda in the same boat. It's hard to find what to prepare for backend engineering interviews.
So much value in this video. And in your channel. I don’t subscribe to many coding channels but I couldn’t resist here.
Thank you Hussein! You are just... Great!
I feel like I found a mentor I don't have. This channel is awesome.
Extremely simple and direct explanations, exactly what I always wanted. Some people like to overcomplicate things to inflate their egos. Subscribed immediately
I LOOOOOVE you! Can't believe the amazing-ness of your channel. Thank you so much for sharing with us some of your knowledge.
Great Video. Thank you so much for providing broad content of backend engineer Qualities.
I'm very glad that the youtube recommendation engine for giving me this video.
Thanks for putting stuff out. Love this channel already.
great video! found this channel at the right time. i just graduated and doing my internship as a backend developer and it seems like there are alot to learn.
Mohamad Harith congratulations Mohd on the graduation and all the best in your career! It does seem like a lot that is why you have to take it slow and enjoy the ride you will not learn everything in a day. taste everything until you find what you like and dive deep into it. All the best
I love this video. Though after watching it i am a little bit scared of backend now but i am enlightened . The depth of the video and the quality is just superb . well done
Gabriel Aggrey thanks Gabriel! Any technology feels intermediating at first until you tame it. You can’t possibly know all of this that is why you taste everything and see what you fall in love with.
Check this Advice for Junior backend engineers who just started their new jobs in software companies th-cam.com/video/V3C0VvNrFZ8/w-d-xo.html
I thought TH-cam didn't have this stuff in depth. Joined the party late. But better late than never. Excited to go through all the videos.
Nice video, Hussein.
If you allow me to add to your list, i would say "Distributed Systems", of course it's a broad topic. It has very abstract ideas, algorithms and its own famous problems. It's patterns appear in databases, proxies, servers...etc. So it's often a good idea to deal with it as a separate discipline. 2nd thing you can add to list is could services, thinking about when we should NOT reinvent the wheel and consider using these services. 3rd thing is operations stuff like docker and so, i think a backend developer should have some knowledge in those.
just discover your channel from twitter, glad to find this!
18:21 one of the best pieces of advice when it comes to CS it really is always crucial to know the problem that some tool solves rather than learn the tool just because it's become popular or something
This is such an amazing content on backend. Each topics explained so well as a starter video on backend.
Fantastic content. I got an interview for a backend engineer trainee position and I am using this as my guide to understanding the Backend as a whole. Thanks for putting time and effort into this. Cheers from Brazil
All the best in your interview Nicole
This was an eye opening for someone like me who have just started learning Backend. Huge Thanks !
Best overview of backend ecosystem i have ever watched. Good job
things are nicely bundled together in one video.. Thank You..
great job! best channel ever seen
i was seekong for content like this to just undetstand the fendamentals without showing code or terminals haha.
You looks like Dua Lipa!!!
pd: I'm nearsighted Lol
Love your attitude, so glad I found your videos!
This was awesome. I'm trying to change career to a backend engineer role and this helped me list the thing I need to study.
All the best
Love this video. Subbed, and I will be watching your backend series. Thank you for the content!
Awesome, thank you!
I love your enthusiasm for JavaScript!! It's infectious!
YT algo did something good this time. First time coming to this type of content where it doesn't talk about the next programming language or framework to learn. Subscribed! Easy decision.
Hussein is so relaxed that even his voice at 2x speed seems very slow, really like the way you explain
Pretty true hahaha
Analytical people speak slowly bruhhh
@@rocknroll7967 really didn't know that
@@rocknroll7967 and kind of people speak fast ?
It is very informative. I had a time that I think I didn't know where to start. Like you said, starting building something and find what you are interested in. Some like the backend end that even build their own server in the basement. Now I can build a web application from scratch, even though I know there are many problems with my website I learn as I go. Thanks for your insight.
Hii Hussein thanks for sharing, after watching your video, i realised that all you explain is inside
my company backend developer roadmap from junior to senior level.
Thumbs up for recommending learning TCP and networking basics. Lots of great channels like David Bombal, Network Chuck, Jon Hammond while geared more towards Network Engineers and Cybsec, as a backend dev I find their content very educational
again, i love this approach concepts/fundamentals >> tools!!! there are enough. tutorials on tools!
Dude! Just Love it. Great insight about backend.
I think, i finish of all your 3 playlist, before this month end. Challenge accepted. And thank you for content 👍
Thank you for this video, taking my next steps in my career and this is giving me a path forward and some motivation!
Came across your channel today, and am learning so much from you!
Love your voice and the way you articulate your thoughts so well!
Thank you so much for this amazing advice
Thank you so much! and Welcome aboard!
@@hnasr thank you!
I can't believe I just found this channel.. It's like a diamond mine!
I really love your channel, I have recently taken backend engineering serious, being a frontend developer, understanding concepts is a big part of my learning journey, your channel makes backend engineering concepts easier us and thank you for that
Love your channel. Suggestions for the future: you might want to show real-time screen sharing showing how you use the different concepts you mention. For example when you talk about http, instead of … no, I mean in addition to the slides video you do, you can do videos showing how http3 would work instead of http2 or http1 with real time case examples
Thank you for Awesome Discussion on Backend Engineering!🔥
Thank you for putting this together
My pleasure!
I was gonna read some idle novel while I ate but then I saw this video and decided to watch it instead, man am I glad I did. Great content
Thank you! Awesome video, thank you for making this information so friendly!
Thanks alot bro, , your description help us to know more unknown titles/concepts to search and read
I agree with every word you say. Thank you for filling in a couple of gaps in my training plan.
Thank talk.
Thanks for the awesome content 👍
Damn useful! I have no words to thank you enough sir! You cleared a lot of confusion and all vague idea I had about backend
as always awesome!
Keep working, great content!
Thank you John 🙏
Thank you so much for this sweet concise video about backend stuff.
Like seriously where has this channel been all this time? This is exactly what I was looking for . Thanks brother Nasser . Take Love
Great tutorial with high quality content! Really like your check list and thanks a lot!
Rong Liao thank you Rong! 🙏 enjoy the content
Thank you so much Hussein Nasser for your videos. These are greatly helpful. Thank you again.
Thank you, I took notes now time to dig in....
Great content and presentation. Keep up the good work!
Bill Blackmon thanks Bill!
Bro...thank you for your content. Seems like everybody teaches front end on YT!
This channel is gold
Best channel for system design, will be the go to channel for backend
Very Inspiring. Thanks mate!
You make everything clear. Thank's a lot.
Thanks Hussain. Another awsome video!
I think performances aspects are also important. Engineers who understand and consider this aspect create robust and good software!
Thank you for such great content Hussein...!!
This is so enlightening.
Thank you for sharing.
You got almost everything :) "Testing" as always getting forgotten :D
Thank you Mr. Nasser.
Thanks for this. Really helpful.
Solid information man, thanks for sharing.
Riza Khan thanks Riza!
Hussein Nasser Marathon coming on, buckle your seats folks, this is going to be AMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAZZZIIIIIING
how come I haven't discovered you earlier in my life :) the content is great, immediately subscribed can't wait to watch all of the stuff I need
Wonderfully explained. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful Sunil!
Excellent explanations!!
The greatest video I’ve watched about this topic.
Amazing content! Thank you!
Thank you very much, brother Hussein. :)
Oh my God! I heard you say "Have an Opinion". I have been saying the same to my juniors and colleagues at my company, and I always use to think that if I am the only person who thinks like that. I like FE but I like backend more, but sometimes, I spend too much time to make my page beautiful than required and regret later that I should have got it done someone else who is pro and I should have focused more on the backend side. But in the end it is a happy learning.
From last 100 years yt is recommending me this video, finally I am watching it.
Thanks so much for your backend playlists. I am a software dev by profession, which has finished his job education and have been graduated last year. Currently I am working as a (junior) full-stack Java dev and your playlist are a good starting point for me getting more into the backend world, which I am more interested in than the frontend world. I like both worlds but I am preferring, for some reason the backend world.
I am so excited that I will watch your videos
Hussein, you are awesome. You have make things very easy to understand for a non-tech person like me. Have just joined a web app company as BA, and the lingo and backend process are killing me when i do not understand them at all...You have shed some light to me, and it's very helpful to get me started in high level. Keep your good work going. :) Love your videos, stay safe.
Thanks May! All the best in your new job, glad my content helps , stay safe. 😊
Wonder why youtube recommendations took so long to recommend this channel to me. you're doing a great job. Just found the right channel for me.. Keep up the good work..
Awesome, thank you! welcome to the channel
Macha diya bhai NE.
I seriously want you to make a course on all the in-depth concepts you know in back-end engineering 🤩🤩
Very educational video, thanks
Bibel for back end developers ❤️ thanks for your content
You're a badass Hussein, thank you!
thanks for the great video
Thanks for sharing this.
