System Design Cheatsheet

System Design Cheatsheet

Picking the right architecture = Picking the right battles + Managing trade-offs

Basic Steps

  1. Clarify and agree on the scope of the system
  • User cases (description of sequences of events that, taken together, lead to a system doing something useful)
    • Who is going to use it?
    • How are they going to use it?

I've been working with Apache Kafka for over 7 years. I inevitably find myself doing the same set of activities while I'm developing or working with someone else's system. Here's a set of Kafka productivity hacks for doing a few things way faster than you're probably doing them now. 🔥

Get the tools

Applicability

The instructions below apply to older versions of Homebrew which still provide switch capability.

For current Homebrew, you'll likely need to keep Versions around, and build locally. Here's my versions repository https://github.com/rdump/homebrew-versions

MacPorts is now keeping versioned installations available as well, by default.

This gist contains everything you need to install StatsD and Graphite on CentOS 6.3. Unless I forgot something. If I did, shoot a reminder email to noah at one more bug dot com. tl;dr: womm, ymmv, yolo.

I (mostly) followed the steps shown in the EZUnix wiki

And I also referred back to this gist by Michael Grace

AWS Lambda AMI Backups
# Automated AMI Backups
#
# @author Bobby Kozora
#
# This script will search for all instances having a tag with the name "backup"
# and value "Backup" on it. As soon as we have the instances list, we loop
# through each instance
# and create an AMI of it. Also, it will look for a "Retention" tag key which
# will be used as a retention policy number in days. If there is no tag with
# that name, it will use a 7 days default value for each AMI.
