I was contemplating how to develop my backend skills as a junior full-stack developer, and this was a very nutritious lecture as I was able to understand the general goals and direction to proceed. Thank you for the great lecture~~

This is a great introductory lecture that taught me what perspective to approach system design from. The materials and explanations were also good as they were made so that anyone could understand them.

While working on projects, I felt the importance of design that considers stability and scalability and have been studying on my own, but the content felt vast and abstract, which sometimes left me feeling overwhelmed. This lecture was a great help in finding direction amid such vagueness. Rather than simply introducing what technologies exist, it first presented actual problem situations that could be encountered, explained concepts centered on solving them, and then pointed out the pros and cons or considerations of appropriate technologies along with each one, making the vague concepts clear to me. Through this process, I came to understand 'why this technology is needed' and 'what problems it's chosen to solve' before the technology itself, allowing me to develop the ability to think about the essence of design rather than being tied to specific technologies. Though it was a short time, it was a valuable period where I could establish direction suitable for my projects and set standards to make judgments and design on my own. I would highly recommend this lecture to those who find design vague or want to learn problem-solving-centered design thinking rather than simple technology acquisition.

System Architecture
Large-Scale System Design Trade-offs
How to do a project that stands out in an interview
I want to quickly go over the basics of system design.
About backend system design
For those who want to quickly organize concepts and draw the big picture
I want to work on a project that will demonstrate my technical depth for employment.
Beyond simple functional implementation,
Anyone who wants to create a project that can explain the reason for the design and the process of selecting technology.
I'm a new developer and I have no experience designing systems yet.
Those who want to understand the goals and components of system design and develop the ability to design their own architecture.
Who is this course right for?
Backend job seeker who has implemented basic features but never designed architecture
Job seeker aiming to boost employability via projects contemplating large-scale system tradeoffs.
A new backend developer who has to design system architecture for the first time at the company
Need to know before starting?
Basic understanding of HTTP and RESTful API is a plus.
Experience building a simple CRUD server with web frameworks (Spring, Express ...) will be helpful for your learning.
If you have DB-related knowledge like SQL and relational databases (RDB), you can follow the lecture better.

Hello, I am developer Seongjang Lantern.
I am currently working at a major IT company in Korea, and I dream of a world where anyone can become a developer and create what they imagine.
I want to share real-world challenges and technologies used in the field in a way that even beginners can easily understand.
As someone who loves the process of learning and growing, I hope those who take my courses can also experience the joy of growing together.

It seems like about 3 years have passed since I started working as an architect. Since I've been working according to the domain (manufacturing services), I feel like I'm always approaching system design from a similar perspective, so I'm watching this with the mindset of returning to my original intentions. Especially since I've never designed service-based architectures like e-commerce and fulfillment, your similar explanations have been very helpful. I think it would be great if you could create additional courses on heterogeneous data integration and real-time processing (multithreading, GPU acceleration, etc.) as additional services, since these are being used a lot in the manufacturing (energy) sector these days. Also, if you have the opportunity, I think uploading content about vector database design, which everyone is interested in these days, would be very helpful for job seekers. These days, even manufacturing-based SI group companies are looking for new hires who don't seem like typical new hires. Thank you.
sungho kang, thank you for leaving such a positive review. I'm glad the course was helpful even though you already have experience as an architect in design work😊! The real-time processing of heterogeneous data integration that you mentioned is indeed a great topic, but it seems a bit too advanced for this introductory course, so I'll consider including it in a follow-up course that covers more in-depth content. Architecture design including vector databases and AI models seems to be something that many job seekers experience in their projects these days, so I'll create an additional course on that topic! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such valuable feedback.

This is a great lecture that provides direction for designing backend systems. Until now, I haven't thought much about it since I've only developed using the typical monolithic approach, but I'll try applying these concepts one by one while working on side projects. Thank you for the great lecture!

This is my first course review. As a job seeker, I believe that with the recent advancements in AI, code implementation has largely become an area that can be resolved. So, as I pondered what would be important, the thought suddenly struck me, "Ah, now it will be important to design systems well, and system design communication will be crucial." Therefore, while reading "Fundamentals of Large-Scale System Design 1," which was introduced in the lecture, just as I thought it would be great if there was a lecture explaining things from a practitioner's perspective, I seemed to have stumbled upon this lecture and purchased it immediately. Personally, it was immensely helpful in grasping the big picture. Even for technologies I had never used but only heard of, I was able to broaden my background knowledge by thinking, "Ah, this could be used in this kind of situation," and I learned a lot about what needs to be considered in the early stages of an actual project. Why did you only appear now...? Not only that, but I also learned how to present projects effectively in an interview as a backend developer. I genuinely find documentation tedious, but from now on, I will diligently document the troubleshooting I've performed. Thank you for this truly excellent lecture. The PPT materials were very easy to read, and I loved the beautifully designed lecture materials! I don't know what other lectures you're planning next, but I will trust and enroll in them :>
dt10002, thank you so much for leaving such a heartfelt course review! I created this course thinking that the experiences I've gained through development might be helpful to someone, and reading reviews like this, that it has actually been helpful, makes me feel incredibly proud and energized! 😆 Going forward, I will continue to develop this course so that it can be of practical help to even more people. I will sincerely support dt10002's future job search and system design journey! If any questions arise while you're studying, please feel free to leave a question anytime. Thank you!
