It's the first time ever that I see the #1 computer science book on Amazon written by someone I personally know. This is huge!! Congratulations @alexxubyte on the amazing launch, and for making it to the top 50 most-sold Amazon books. 1.5 years of full-time writing paying off:

For System Design Interviews: You can’t beat @alexxubyte’s System Design Interview books Volume 1 transformed the way I viewed design interviews I haven’t read volume 2 yet but it looks even more focused on designing online services amazon.com/System-Design-Interview-insiders-Second/dp/B08CMF2CQF?&linkCode=ll1&tag=9687293-20&linkId=c8d054b7c9d87b705e35ec1ecc40bd11&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl

@TechnocratSingh @shanselman @davidfowl Check the system design interview book by @alexxubyte. This is not just interview questions; but gives clear understanding of system design.

Yes, I got my own copy! In my opinion, Machine Learning System Design is one of the most important subjects for anyone interested in the field. Learn something new in Machine Learning every week: TheAiEdge.io #AI #MachineLearning

I just got a copy of @alexxubyte and @sahnlam’s book and after skimming a bit it looks really good, not only to prepare for interviews but to learn some new patterns! 👌 I’m also thinking of doing a giveaway! Details on that soon… 😀

@alexxubyte Thank You Alex. This is awesome. Your books are truly gamechangers and I hoping these newsletters are cherry on top. Than you once again.

Well, this is a newsletter you really don’t want to miss out. Alex is one of the few persons that share incredibly interesting threads about system design. Can’t wait to read the first issue of his newsletter twitter.com/alexxubyte/status/1507380005138968580

@alexxubyte @sahnlam Just got it yesterday. Impressive work so far! Looking forward for time to reading this great continuation. Thank you, Alex!

One reason to look forward to the weekend 😀 Having really enjoyed the first volume and going through the distributed message queue case I’m sure this book won’t disappoint either. Thanks to @alexxubyte and @sahnlam for all the effort they put into this. #systemdesign

@GergelyOrosz Can’t wait to read this volume 2. I read @alexxubyte’s volume 1 along with Designing Data-Intensive Applications and it was the most useful book for me to prepare to System Design Interviews for the Big Techs. That book along with Murali’s training on IK were 🤯. Got 3 offers.

@alexxubyte Great news!! Your book helped me a lot to prepare me for the interviews that I did last year!! I'm excited to read the new one!! 🤩

@noahberm @SamAllenX Get System Design interview book by Alex Xu Normally taking a course of scalable software architecture will cover all this stuff you need for interview and on the job.

How to Scale a Distributed System freecodecamp.org/news/how-to-scale-a-distributed-system Designing a distributed system that supports millions of users is a complex task, and one that requires continuous improvement and refinement. Recently I read a book by Alex Xu called "System Design Interview – An Insider

@GergelyOrosz System design interview - An Insider's guide by Alex Xu. It was a great primer into the world of both system design and system design rounds. It is better read before starting the designing data intensive applications IMO.

You must read the "System Design Interview – An Insider's Guide" by Alex Xu (@alexxubyte). At least because of references after each chapter. There is as much information in it as in the book if no more.

For more common Distributed System Design Interview; There are plenty of resources online but I personally got good results with: System Design Interview (Alex Xu), Designing Data-intensive applications and: youtube.com/c/SystemDesignInterview/videos

5 of 5 stars to System Design Interview – An insider'... by Alex Xu goodreads.com/review/show/3936781668

The book is "System Design Interview" by Alex Xu. It was the only dedicated system design book I could find. You might need to look up terms in a CS dictionary as you go. It's dense but approachable
