    Mikhail is the best. His system design videos are systematic and top notch with respect to quality and crispness. Presenting how to finish a complete design in 35 to 40 mins Wow, this is a great feat and only way for us. Prior to watching these videos my ideas and presentation is messy and dis-organized, but these videos gave me the basic sense what is expected in System Design and how to approach it. I take down the notes while watching the videos and try to apply these principles to other interview questions. This is greatly helping with my preparation. Can't thank you enough Mikhail, you are one of my best teachers.

And 9 pages of notes it is, initially I thought it would be in 3-4 pages only. It's full of rich content, that I had to note everything down. Thank you. I am looking for a better way to prepare for System Design questions. With this speed, I am not sure how much time It will take for me.

    • @SystemDesignInterview
      @SystemDesignInterview  4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Hi Mukesh. You are right, preparation for a system design interview is a lengthy process. And it greatly depends on the level you plan to apply and your background.
      Just take one step at a time. First, try to learn about concepts without going too deep into each one of them. Otherwise, you will find yourself traversing a very deep graph of various interconnected concepts. Second, go deeper with every next iteration, if time allows. Third, use your daily work as a constant source of knowledge. Ask yourself how things in your project/application work. And do not stop asking yourself until you get a pretty solid understanding of a particular feature.
      It is a big and a very good question you've raised. I should, probably, create a video on how to prepare, depending on how much time one's have.

    13:17 Strictly speaking, using a database as a backend message store is a valid option (because database = storage engine + high level type system). The problem is that FIFO message ordering semantics, that is usually expected from queues, is not easily achievable on the top of off-the-shelf databases. Because the latter are usually designed for a different query/update patterns than it's common for queues. But some databases can handle this custom case perfectly, and some queues (Kafka) are even positioning themselves as a databases.

    • @junfu8695

      mysql auto increment id could be an option to implement FIFO queue. Queue name could be a secondary index, and auto increment id is a primary key.

  • @omfromam
    @omfromam 5 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    Great content! Thank you for making this. One thing that seems not clear (at least to me) ~min15-min17 you show the flow of the message from FE to backend node and to receiver. It is unclear how do you separate persisted information between MS (database) and in-cluster manager (ZooKeeper). Both seems to store mapping between Queue name and Leader Host. Do you really need to store this information in two places? How are they synchronized? Why would you need to keep this info in the MS in the first place? Isn't ZooKeeper enough for queue-to-node mapping?

    • @SystemDesignInterview
      @SystemDesignInterview  5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Both options are fine:
      1. When we store mapping in the Metadata service. Zookeeper is used for leader election and leader monitoring. And if leader changes, this information is propagated to the Metadata service.
      2. When we store mapping in Zookeeper. Zookeeper is highly optimized for reads.
      Anyway, this information is stored in one place. So that we avoid any synchronization between configuration storages and have a single source of truth.

    A uses leader to cleanup and replication
    B instances are equal, but still need something to handling of each instance

    Summary(notes):
    1. Problem statement: Producer sends data and exactly one of the consumers gets the data
    2. Resolving ambiguity in the problem statement by asking questions such as scale, priority, and so on...
    3. Just focus on the core set of requirements - sendMessage(messageBody), receiveMessage()
    4. SLA numbers for the non-functional requirements
    5. Components: LB, Control Plane(Metadata-Service), Data Plane-1(Frontend), Data Plane-2(Back-end)
    6. FE: Required Cross cutting concerns such as billing, throttling, the most important - routing to Backend since the Backend is stateful and so on.
    7. Metadata Service: Caching Layer for routing information and metadata ( high consistency required in case of very few writes, R/W Ratio)
    8. Backend Service: API Handling Layer, Storage and so on. Since Backend has to be HA and fault tolerant as it requires a consensus service like ZooKeeper or In-Cluster and Out-Cluster management strategy.
    ----
    Extend the above design of queue creation with queue deletion, message deletion, message replication, delivery semantics( exactly once delivery not supported because it requires 2PC) and Pull vs Push messages, security and monitoring.

    Scalability Bottlenecks, use-case exntensability and use-case supported/limitations?

    A few questions
    - at 10:12 you say that "read when mesg arrives, write only when queue created". why? wouldn't you write every mesg arriving to the cache?
    - metadata service is it responsible for persisting data to db other than being used as cache? if so why is backend service also doing the same?
    - when you say distributed queue, you mean queue for communicating between a single producer-single consumer resides on several machine or between several "single produce-consumer" connections on several machines? if former, wouldn't only one machine be sufficient?

    • @jmitesh01
      @jmitesh01 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Jm Ka,
      1. Metadata service is used for storing meta information such as queues to backend service host mapping so when we create a new queue then only we need to add that info to Metadata Service persistent storage and cache as well.
      2. Backend Service stores the actaul message and based on the requirements we may cache for frequeuent accessed queue to Metadata Service.

    • @SystemDesignInterview
      @SystemDesignInterview  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Jm Ka,
      Hopefully Mitesh's answer helped to clarify what is stored where. Metadata service for metadata only and Backend service for messages.
      As for your last question, can you please clarify what yo mean by "several single produce-consumer connections"?
      Each message lives on several machines. To achieve high availability. Simply speaking, we want to make sure that messages are not lost if a single machine crashes. Every time we store a published message, we replicate it. So, we always have several copies of the same data.

    • @jmka1222
      @jmka1222 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@SystemDesignInterview Hi, Mitesh's post doesn't answer anything, it's simply reiterates stuff he heard you say.
      1) was how at 10:12 for metadata service you say "read when mesg arrives, write only when queue created". Is metadata service (or cache) storing the whole queue including messages? Or is it storing only which queues go to which consumers? Either way, when a message arrives, then too it'd need to be cached in metadata service, so there has to be a write. In that case, saying ""read when mesg arrives, write only when queue created" would be wrong
      2) Is metadata service only a cache or can front-end service persist messages without going through metadata service?
      backend service persists messages, but it looks like in your description metadata service is doing the same too?
      3) by the term "distributed queue", one could mean several things. A) you can have a distributed queue that's conceptually a single queue for only 1 producer that's generating messages for 10 consumers, but the queue is replicated and sharded on several machines for availability concerns. B) you could have a distributed queue that's multiple queues for 5 different producers, each one catering to 10 consumers (total of 50 consumers). this queue can also be called distributed. C) a distributed queue that's multiple queues for 5 different producers, each one catering to only 1 consumer (total of 5 consumers).
      By "several single produce-consumer connections" I meant case (C).
      Which one of A or B or C you meant by "distributed queue"?

    • @SystemDesignInterview
      @SystemDesignInterview  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Jm ka,
      1. We write to Metadata service only when we create/update queue metadata. We do not store messages in Metadata service. When message arrives, we make a call to Metadata service to get details about the queue. E.g. we may retrieve message size limit value and check if the just arrived message exceeds the max size or not. Messages are only stored on back-end service machines.
      Please let me know what part of the video confused you and made you thinking we store messages in Metadata store.
      2. When message arrives, front-end service needs to pick a back-end machine for storing the message. Same is true for retrieving a message, front-end needs to forward receive message request to a machine that stores messages for the requested queue. So, front-end needs to get this information from somewhere. From some persistent storage. Calling database directly is not great in this case, as there may be too many calls. This may be both slow and expensive. Metadata service helps to avoid direct calls to the database, by storing queue metadata information in memory.
      3. Distributed simply means messages for the same queue are replicated and stored across several machines. There may be multiple producers and multiple consumers. Only one consumer gets the message.
      Let me know if you have other questions.

    Regarding how the front end service finds the leader backend nodes, you mention that this discovery would be done via metadata service. But in the in-cluster method, we actually have that information in the coordinator service (zookeeper). In this case, would the metadata service just be a thin wrapper for the coordinator service (in case of backend node discovery)?
    Thank you so much for sharing these videos Mikhail. (Also, I love that you mention several times that the interviewer is there to help us, I find it delightful to have that perspective, and definitely helps during the interview)

      Hi Suharto,
      Thank you very much for the feedback!
      Regarding your question, we can use either Metadata service or Zookeeper itself for storing and retrieving information about leaders. Please take a look at my answer here: th-cam.com/video/iJLL-KPqBpM/w-d-xo.html&lc=UgxAE6YfMUj95phbLid4AaABAg.90QChp-3ylO93AokcEr3Bu

    Really great content. I have one doubt. In the out cluster management option, let's say we split each queue into multiple partition across multiple clusters, and each partition is being handled by separate clusters with replication of data in all the nodes inside the cluster. What if an entire cluster goes down? How will we ensure durability of the message belongs to the partitions managed by that cluster.. Please help me to resolve the doubt.

    Really comprehensive coverage of the topic! Although, would've loved to see more discussion on Asynchronous out-cluster replication. It's tricky to design, eg. what happens when you receive a get request while the data hasn't fully replicated across hosts in a cluster? can we hit all hosts in a cluster? what happens if we receive a get request when the message deletion replication is in progress etc.

    Great video, thanks for doing these. Can you please explain why we need a FE component? Initially I thought it was to design a distributed message queue, the ones used by the backend services, like the one that you had drawn in your other video: System Design Interview: Step by Step Guide. Or is this a question about how to design a chat appication? And then my last question is, can we combine VIP with load balancer into one component, the API gateway? Thanks!

  • @tejvepa8521
    @tejvepa8521 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    In the backend storage design, Option B, one node in the pool of the backend hosts is responsible for distributing messages to other hosts in the pool. The downside with this approach as I see is that the client(sender Front end) has little idea about how many hosts the message is actually distributed to. What happens if the receive call selects a host which does not have the message? Wouldnt it make more sense to have a quorum based read and write approach at the front end service layer. Where it sends a send request to x hosts and wait for x acknowledgments and receive request is sent to y hosts and wait for y responses. As long as x+y > total hosts in the pool a consistent read is guaranteed. Of course this is assuming consistent reads are needed and strict ordering is needed which adds to latency. Also a little unclear on the role of metadata service here? Specifically what information does it store if there is another out cluster manager for hosting information about queue to cluster mapping.

    • @tejvepa8521
      @tejvepa8521 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I guess it really depends on the semantics of the queue. Ex: Is FIFO guaranteed etc

  • @onePunch95
    @onePunch95 3 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Great content! I have some confusion regarding the queue identification.
    1. In the API definition, we are only sending the message, so when the first-ever message comes, how is that message getting mapped to a queue number? For example in the slides it says a sendMessage(msg) comes for queue id =1, how does the sender know about the queue id? Similarly, when the receiveMessage() API is called, how does the receiver know which queue to get the message from, secondly there are several messages in the queue, so how do we know which message it wants to receive, and how are we deciding?
    Let's say., when the first message comes around, the backend stores the data and takes care of replication, then writes the mapping in the DB. But how is this information being propagated to the receiver, that wants the message, how do they get to know about the queue id?
    2. In the table shown for in-cluster management, for qid 1, the leader is A and followers are C, B. But if the queue is distributed over nodes, then how are we just having one leader node as A? Doesn't that mean we are storing the entire queue 1 in A, and the copies in the followers?

    • @AshishNegi1618
      @AshishNegi1618 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      1a. Message should contain QueueId.
      1b. API should be queue.ReceiveMessage() ; Queue object knows about queue_id and sends in either every poll request or is tied to tcp/grpc/websocket connection.
      1c. Messages are received from queue in kind of FIFO order. So, client sends last Message id or Sequence Number and server sends SequenceNumber+1 th message.
      1d. Client knows queue name and that should be able to give them queue id. It can be either hash of "queue_name" Or they ping Frontend service to get QueueId for a QueueName.
      2. A distributed queue does not mean partial data on different nodes. It means full copy of data on all nodes. One of the node can only currently write -- this node is called Primary node. This is done so that even if one machine goes down for ever, full copy of data is available in other machines. This gives high availability/durability in case of failures.

    Thanks for the great video. Just a question below:
    If we have multiple consumers, say, application deployed in a cluster and assuming consumers poll for new messages, how do we ensure that only one instance of them gets the message? Do we need to have some distributed lock on the message so that only one consumer would get it?

    • @SystemDesignInterview
      @SystemDesignInterview  5 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Hi Chandra,
      In case of a pull-based consumer (like the one described in the video) we indeed need a mechanism to "lock" a message. So that it is not available for other consumers. One option is to do something similar to what AWS SQS does: docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSSimpleQueueService/latest/SQSDeveloperGuide/sqs-visibility-timeout.html
      We could have also implement a push-based mechanism, when queue service itself is responsible for sending a message to one of the subscribed consumers (please check a video about Notification Service, similar idea is described there but for pub/sub use case, not a queue). In this scenario queue ensures that only one consumer gets the message by sending it to a single consumer from the list (e.g. using round-robin algorithm).
      Please let me know if more details are needed.

    One thing: about TLS termination I don't think it's a common practice to be done on service instance. It's usually done on LB. For example AWS LBs can be configured to be TLS terminators.

  • @himangshuroy3571
    @himangshuroy3571 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi Mikhail, Others
    Not sure whether you will see this or not, but wanted to ask one thing. If I try to design gmail using a similar architecture outlined above then
    1. Whether the Metadata server will store time, sender, size etc? While the backend store will store the actual mail?
    2. Can the MD Server( No SQL with a Cache/façade in front) organized in a consistent hash ring using the User name( through hash) as primary key?
    3. If 2 is correct how do I display the most recent mails? Seems I need to sort the data stored in a node, when to do it? Where and how to store it?
    4. If I sort based on time and store in a distributed cache and then I want to sort by size how can I do it, Will the Frontend Service help on this? Does No SQL allows this kind of queries?
    5. How will I know Which Backend Storage store the mail? Is there a mapping exists between MD server and Backend Cluster?
    Many thanks in advance.

  • @akshaynathr
    @akshaynathr 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I have a doubt. During sendMessage ,Why is the FrontEnd checking Metadata service to get the leader of the queue ? The data is available in zookeeper right , so it should check the zookeeper instance? Or is it that the zookeeper also is saving data in DB which can be fetced by Metadata service?
    Thanks a lot for the great content

    When frontend needs to call which backend service host to call, you mentioned it will contact Metadata service. But I belive it should contact in-cluster manager (ZK) as it has the authoritative information of which queue is owned by which backend host. Correct?

    • @rajrishav
      @rajrishav 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @Naveen I was also confused on this point which Mikhail himself has answered in one of the comments above:
      ​ Both options are fine:
      1. When we store mapping in the Metadata service. Zookeeper is used for leader election and leader monitoring. And if leader changes, this information is propagated to the Metadata service.
      2. When we store mapping in Zookeeper. Zookeeper is highly optimized for reads.
      Anyway, this information is stored in one place. So that we avoid any synchronization between configuration storages and have a single source of truth.
      Hope it helps
