Facebook Production Engineering Interview

What to Expect and Tips

• 45-minute systems interview, focus on responding to real world problems with an unhealthy service, such as a web server or database. The interview will start off at a high level troubleshooting a likely scenario, dig deeper to find the cause and some possible solutions for it. The goal is to probe your knowledge of systems at scale and under load, so keep in mind the challenges of the Facebook environment.
• Focus on things such as tooling, memory management and unix process lifecycle.

Systems

More specifically, linux troubleshooting and debugging. Understanding things like memory, io, cpu, shell, memory etc. would be pretty helpful. Knowing how to actually write a unix shell would also be a good idea. What tools might you use to debug something? On another note, this interview will likely push your boundaries of what you know (and how to implement it).

Design/Architecture 

Interview is all about taking an ambiguous question of how you might build a system and letting

Set up GitHub push with SSH keys

SSH keypair setup for GitHub (or GitHub/GitLab/BitBucket, etc, etc)

Create a repo.

Make sure there is at least one file in it (even just the README.md)

Generate a SSH key pair (private/public):

ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "your_email@example.com"

Ansible SSH too many authentication failures

This exception appears to affect ansible when a playbook is executed from a host with several identities configured in the SSH agent (Tested on a development machine with 12 private keys).

I've noted this exception to be particulary common with AWS targets

Inventory configuration

Most tasks will run fine when we configure our inventory to use a specific private key.

We also need to set the IdentitiesOnly flag so that ssh does not attempt other authentication strategies.

Step-by-step on setting up vim-flake8

This is how to automatically check your Python code style to comply with PEP8 when you use vim as your text editor. The first thing to do is, make sure you have vim running 😁

$ vim

You need to setup vim-pathogen first:

$ mkdir -p ~/.vim/autoload ~/.vim/bundle && curl -LSso ~/.vim/autoload/pathogen.vim https://tpo.pe/pathogen.vim

Markdown and reStructuredText

GitHub supports several lightweight markup languages for documentation; the most popular ones (generally, not just at GitHub) are Markdown and reStructuredText. Markdown is sometimes considered easier to use, and is often preferred when the purpose is simply to generate HTML. On the other hand, reStructuredText is more extensible and powerful, with native support (not just embedded HTML) for tables, as well as things like automatic generation of tables of contents.
