Distributed Systems Design with Node.js

$222/ week
1 day trial

Build systems that scale to millions — the hard way, the right way.

A comprehensive, project-driven course that takes you from single-process Node.js applications to production-grade distributed systems. You’ll build real infrastructure — message brokers, consensus algorithms, distributed caches, and fault-tolerant services — using the same patterns that power systems at scale.

What you’ll learn:
• Distributed consensus and leader election (Raft, Paxos fundamentals)
• Event-driven architectures with message queues (RabbitMQ, Kafka, NATS)
• Service discovery, load balancing, and circuit breakers
• Distributed data patterns: CQRS, event sourcing, saga orchestration
• Building fault-tolerant microservices with gRPC and Protocol Buffers
• Observability: distributed tracing, structured logging, and metrics
• CAP theorem in practice — choosing consistency vs. availability
• Container orchestration and deployment with Docker & Kubernetes

Who this is for:
Intermediate to senior Node.js developers ready to architect systems that handle millions of requests. You should be comfortable with async/await, streams, and basic networking concepts.

What you get:
→ 8 modules with 40+ video lessons and hands-on labs
→ Real-world capstone project: build a distributed task queue from scratch
→ Private community chat for peer discussion and code reviews
→ Direct access to ask questions and get feedback
→ New content added monthly as the field evolves
