How to become a better software engineer?

 Becoming a software engineer is a dream of many IT aspirant, but if you would like to become a better at Software Engineering , You would need to follow these tips sooner or later in your career.

Learn and master at-least one programming language like Python/Java or C# : 

Well that's obvious, if you want to become a programmer you would at-least need to learn one programming language specially Object oriented programming language, but Mastering one is more important to crack interviews and solve real world problems.

Learn Data Structures and Algorithms: 

Believe me you will thank me later if you learn DSA as early as possible in your career, Because more you get experienced more you will regret not learning DSA in the beginning of your career when you will see your colleagues and batch mates will be growing by having DSA as a skill.

Learn System Design Fundamentals:

 Some people thinks System design is for experienced professionals, but it is important for freshers as well, because System is the real engineering and you wont get a feel of becoming software engineer if you don't know how to deal with real world problems in Software engineering.

Learn to write Clean code:

Its very very important to learn and follow clean coding practice as it shows how modular and organized your code is so that other engineers can understand it.

Top trending concepts in System Design Interviews.

  Here are some trending topics on system design:   Microservices Architecture: Microservices architecture is a design pattern that structures an application as a collection of small, independent services that communicate with each other using APIs. It allows for more flexibility and scalability, as each service can be updated, deployed, and scaled independently.   Serverless Architecture: Serverless architecture is a design pattern where the application is hosted on third-party servers, and developers don't have to worry about the underlying infrastructure. It is a cost-effective and scalable option for developing and deploying applications.  examples are  Azure Functions and AWS Lambda            Cloud-Native Architecture: Cloud-native architecture is an approach that utilizes cloud computing to build and run applications. It allows for rapid development, deployment, and scaling of applications. There are 3 major platforms available in the market Amazon Webservices(AWS) ,

Domain Driven Design (DDD) Pros and Cons

  Domain Driven Design   Domain-Driven Design (DDD) is a software development methodology that emphasizes the importance of understanding the domain of a problem before creating a solution. DDD involves collaborating with domain experts and creating a shared language to develop a deep understanding of the problem domain. It also focuses on designing the software around the core business processes and models, rather than around technical concerns.   The benefits of DDD include:   Improved collaboration: By involving domain experts in the development process, DDD fosters collaboration and understanding between developers and domain experts .   Better alignment with business needs : DDD focuses on designing software around core business processes, which helps ensure that the software aligns with the needs of the business . Improved software quality: By focusing on the core business processes and models, DDD helps ensure that the software is more maintainable, scalable, and flexib

How to improve performance of a system?

There are several ways to improve the performance of a system using system design concepts: Caching: Use caching to reduce the response time for frequently accessed data. This can be done at various levels, such as application-level caching, in-memory caching, and CDN caching.   Load balancing: Use load balancing to distribute the workload across multiple servers or nodes. This can help to improve the throughput and reduce response times.   Database optimization: Optimize the database by using indexing, query optimization, and database replication. This can help to improve the database performance and reduce response times.   Sharding : Use database sharding to horizontally partition data across multiple servers or nodes. This can help to improve scalability and reduce response times.   Asynchronous processing: Use asynchronous processing to offload non-critical tasks to background threads or queues. This can help to reduce response times and improve the throughput of the
