Hey PH fam 👋
Super excited to hunt System Design on AWS today—a must-have for software architects, engineers, and anyone scaling applications on AWS!
Building enterprise-grade systems comes with a unique set of challenges: scalability, resilience, security, and cost optimization. This book, authored by Jayanth Kumar & Mandeep Singh, is packed with real-world insights and best practices to help you navigate system design on AWS effectively.
What caught my attention:
✅ Deep dive into AWS-native solutions for scalability & performance
✅ Practical case studies on real-world system design challenges
✅ Best practices for building cloud-native architectures
✅ Covers modern AWS services & patterns for high availability
Whether you're an aspiring architect, a startup scaling on AWS, or an experienced engineer refining your cloud strategy, this book is a valuable resource!

@suryansh_tiwari2 Are there specific chapters that focus on designing for scalability and fault tolerance in large-scale AWS environments?
@camden_granger Yes. Part I and Part II introduce the readers to these concepts and Part III actually talks about achieving scalability and fault tolerance in the proposed architectures. Every use-case chapters talks about building systems from day 0 (MVP, launched for few users) to day N (scaling to millions of customers)
This is an amazing idea. Does the book primarily focus on AWS services or does it also touch on best practices that can be applied across various cloud platforms?
@scytalelabs_marketing Part II of the book focuses on AWS services but the system design concepts apply across the cloud providers or deploying on-premise.
