## Flow
|
||||
|
||||
#### A. Understand the problem and scope
|
||||
|
||||
- Define the use cases, with interviewer's help.
|
||||
- Suggest additional features.
|
||||
- Remove items that interviewer deems out of scope.
|
||||
- Assume high availability is required, add as a use case.
|
||||
|
||||
#### B. Think about constraints
|
||||
|
||||
- Ask how many requests per month.
|
||||
- Ask how many requests per second (they may volunteer it or make you do the math).
|
||||
- Estimate reads vs. writes percentage.
|
||||
- Keep 80/20 rule in mind when estimating.
|
||||
- How much data written per second.
|
||||
- Total storage required over 5 years.
|
||||
- How much data reads per second.
|
||||
|
||||
#### C. Abstract design
|
||||
|
||||
- Layers (service, data, caching).
|
||||
- Infrastructure: load balancing, messaging.
|
||||
- Rough overview of any key algorithm that drives the service.
|
||||
- Consider bottlenecks and determine solutions.

## Grading Rubrics
|
||||
|
||||
- Problem Solving - How systematic is your approach to solving the problem step-by-step? Break down a problem into its core components.
|
||||
- Communication - How well do you explain your idea and communicate it with others?
|
||||
- Evaluation - How do you evaluate your system? Are you aware of the trade-offs made? How can you optimize it?
|
||||
- Estimation - How fast does your system need to be? How much space does it need? How much load will it experience?
