## Study guide

> Suggested topics to review based on your interview timeline (short, medium, long).

![Imgur](http://i.imgur.com/OfVllex.png)

**Q: For interviews, do I need to know everything here?**

**A: No, you don't need to know everything here to prepare for the interview**.

What you are asked in an interview depends on variables such as:

* How much experience you have
* What your technical background is
* What positions you are interviewing for
* Which companies you are interviewing with
* Luck

More experienced candidates are generally expected to know more about system design.  Architects or team leads might be expected to know more than individual contributors.  Top tech companies are likely to have one or more design interview rounds.

Start broad and go deeper in a few areas.  It helps to know a little about various key system design topics.  Adjust the following guide based on your timeline, experience, what positions you are interviewing for, and which companies you are interviewing with.

* **Short timeline** - Aim for **breadth** with system design topics.  Practice by solving **some** interview questions.
* **Medium timeline** - Aim for **breadth** and **some depth** with system design topics.  Practice by solving **many** interview questions.
* **Long timeline** - Aim for **breadth** and **more depth** with system design topics.  Practice by solving **most** interview questions.

| | Short | Medium | Long |

## Study guide

> Предлагаемые темы для повторения в зависимости от того, сколько у вас есть времени для подготовки к интервью (мало, средне, много)

![Imgur](http://i.imgur.com/OfVllex.png)

**Вопрос: Надо ли мне знать все из этого документа для интервью?**

**Ответ: Нет, не обязательно**.

То, что вас будут спрашивать на интервью, зависит от:

* Вашего опыта - сколько времени и чем вы занимались
* Должности, на которую вы собеседуетесь
* Компания, в которую вы собеседуетесь
* Удача

Ожидается, что более опытные кандидаты в общем случае знают больше о проектировании систем, а архитекторы и руководители комманд знают больше, чем индивидуальные разработчики. Топовые IT компании скорее всего будут проводить один или более этапов собеседования по проектированию систем.

Начинайте широко, и углубляейтесь в некоторые области. Это поможет узнать больше о различных темах по проектированию систем. Корректируйте ваш план в зависомости от того, сколько у вас есть времени, какой у вас опыт, на какую должность вы собеседуетесь и в какие компании.

* **Короткий срок** - настраиватесь на **широту** покрытия тем. Тренируйтесь отвечать на **некоторые** вопросы.
* **Средний срок** - настраиватесь на **широту** и **немного глубины** покрытия тем. Тренируйтесь отвечать на **многие** вопросы.
* **Длительный срок** - настраиватесь на **широту** и **больше глубины** покрытия тем. Тренируйтесь отвечать на **большинство** вопросов.

| | Малый срок | Средний срок | Длительный срок |
|---|---|---|---|
| Читайте [System design topics](#index-of-system-design-topics), чтобы получить общее понимание, как работают системы | :+1: | :+1: | :+1: |
| Почитайте несколько статей из блогов компаний, в который вы собеседуетесь [Company engineering blogs](#company-engineering-blogs)  | :+1: | :+1: | :+1: |
| Посмотрите несколько [Real world architectures](#real-world-architectures) | :+1: | :+1: | :+1: |

## How to approach a system design interview question

> How to tackle a system design interview question.

The system design interview is an **open-ended conversation**.  You are expected to lead it.

You can use the following steps to guide the discussion.  To help solidify this process, work through the [System design interview questions with solutions](#system-design-interview-questions-with-solutions) section using the following steps.
l10n:p -->

## How to approach a system design interview question

> Как отвечать на вопросы на интерьвю по проектированию систем

Это интервью является **открытой беседой**. Ожидается, что вы возьмете инициативу по его ведению на себя.

Изучите раздел [System design interview questions with solutions](#system-design-interview-questions-with-solutions) и используйте шаги, описанные ниже.


<!-- l10n:p
### Step 1: Outline use cases, constraints, and assumptions

Gather requirements and scope the problem.  Ask questions to clarify use cases and constraints.  Discuss assumptions.

* Who is going to use it?
* How are they going to use it?
* How many users are there?
* What does the system do?
* What are the inputs and outputs of the system?
* How much data do we expect to handle?
* How many requests per second do we expect?
* What is the expected read to write ratio?
l10n:p -->

### Step 1: Outline use cases, constraints, and assumptions

Соберите требование и оцените рамки задачи. Задавайте вопросы, чтобы уточнить варианты использования и ограничения. Обсудите допущения.

* Кто будет использовать решение?
* Как его будут использовать?
* Сколько пользователей?
* Что система должна делать?
* Что система получает на вход, и что должно быть на выходе?
* Какое количество данных система должна обрабатывать?
* Сколько ожидается запросов в секунду?
* Какое соотношение количества операций на чтение и запись?

<!-- l10n:p
### Step 2: Create a high level design

Outline a high level design with all important components.

* Sketch the main components and connections
* Justify your ideas
l10n:p -->

### Step 2: Create a high level design

Сделайте набросок проекта с наиболее важными компонентами:

* Выделите главные компоненты и связи между ними
* Обоснуйте ваши идеи

<!-- l10n:p
### Step 3: Design core components

Dive into details for each core component.  For example, if you were asked to [design a url shortening service](solutions/system_design/pastebin/README.md), discuss:

* Generating and storing a hash of the full url
    * [MD5](solutions/system_design/pastebin/README.md) and [Base62](solutions/system_design/pastebin/README.md)
    * Hash collisions
    * SQL or NoSQL
    * Database schema
* Translating a hashed url to the full url
    * Database lookup
* API and object-oriented design
l10n:p -->

### Step 3: Design core components

Детализируйте каждый компонент. Например, если вас попросили разработать [design a url shortening service](solutions/system_design/pastebin/README.md), обсудите следующие моменты:

* Генерация и хранения хэша оригинального URL
    * [MD5](solutions/system_design/pastebin/README.md) и [Base62](solutions/system_design/pastebin/README.md)
    * Коллизии хэш-функции
    * SQL или NoSQL
    * Схема базы данных
* Перевод хэшированного URL в оригинальный URL
    * Поиск в базе данных
* API и объектно-ориентированное проектирование

<!-- l10n:p
### Step 4: Scale the design

Identify and address bottlenecks, given the constraints.  For example, do you need the following to address scalability issues?

* Load balancer
* Horizontal scaling
* Caching
* Database sharding

Discuss potential solutions and trade-offs.  Everything is a trade-off.  Address bottlenecks using [principles of scalable system design](#index-of-system-design-topics).
l10n:p -->

### Step 4: Scale the design

Определите узкие места и разберитесь с ними, учитывая данные ограничения. Например, для решение проблем с масштабируемостью, может ли вам понадобиться что-то из:

* Балансировщик нагрузки
* Горизонтальное машстабирование
* Кэширование
* Шардинг (sharding) базы данных

Обсудите потенциальные варианты и компромиссы. Разберитесь с узкими местами используя [principles of scalable system design](#index-of-system-design-topics).

<!-- l10n:p
### Back-of-the-envelope calculations

You might be asked to do some estimates by hand.  Refer to the [Appendix](#appendix) for the following resources:

* [Use back of the envelope calculations](http://highscalability.com/blog/2011/1/26/google-pro-tip-use-back-of-the-envelope-calculations-to-choo.html)
* [Powers of two table](#powers-of-two-table)
* [Latency numbers every programmer should know](#latency-numbers-every-programmer-should-know)
l10n:p -->

### Next steps

Next, we'll look at high-level trade-offs:

* **Performance** vs **scalability**
* **Latency** vs **throughput**
* **Availability** vs **consistency**

Keep in mind that **everything is a trade-off**.

Then we'll dive into more specific topics such as DNS, CDNs, and load balancers.
l10n:p -->

### Next steps

Далее, изучим компромиссы в общем виде:

* **Производительность** и **масштабирование**
* **Задержка** и **пропускная способность**
* **Доступность** и **согласованность данных**

Помните, что **везде необходимы компромиссы**.

Далее, изучем более детально DNS, CDN, балансировщики нагрузки и другие темы.

<!-- l10n:p
## Performance vs scalability

A service is **scalable** if it results in increased **performance** in a manner proportional to resources added. Generally, increasing performance means serving more units of work, but it can also be to handle larger units of work, such as when datasets grow.<sup><a href=http://www.allthingsdistributed.com/2006/03/a_word_on_scalability.html>1</a></sup>

Another way to look at performance vs scalability:

* If you have a **performance** problem, your system is slow for a single user.
* If you have a **scalability** problem, your system is fast for a single user but slow under heavy load.
l10n:p -->

## Performance vs scalability

Сервис считается **масштабируемым**, если его **производительность** растет пропорционально добавленным ресурсам. Обычно под увеличением производительности подразумевают увеличение количества обрабатываемых единиц работы. Однако, это может быть и обработка более крупных единиц работы, как, например, при росте объема данных.<sup><a href=http://www.allthingsdistributed.com/2006/03/a_word_on_scalability.html>1</a></sup>

Иначе говоря:

* если у вас проблемы с **производительностью**, ваша система медленная для одного пользователя;
* если у вас проблемы с **масштабируемостью**, ваша системы быстрая для одного пользователя, но становится медленной под большой нагрузкой.

## Latency vs throughput

**Latency** is the time to perform some action or to produce some result.

**Throughput** is the number of such actions or results per unit of time.

Generally, you should aim for **maximal throughput** with **acceptable latency**.
l10n:p -->

## Latency vs throughput

**Задержка** - это время, необходимое для выполнения действия или достижения некоторого результата.

**Пропускная способность** - это количество такие действий или результататов в единицу времени.

Обычно следует стремиться к **максимальной пропускной способности**, при этом сохраняя **задержку приемлимой**.

### CAP theorem

<p align="center">
  <img src="http://i.imgur.com/bgLMI2u.png"/>
  <br/>
  <i><a href=http://robertgreiner.com/2014/08/cap-theorem-revisited>Source: CAP theorem revisited</a></i>
</p>

In a distributed computer system, you can only support two of the following guarantees:

* **Consistency** - Every read receives the most recent write or an error
* **Availability** - Every request receives a response, without guarantee that it contains the most recent version of the information
* **Partition Tolerance** - The system continues to operate despite arbitrary partitioning due to network failures

*Networks aren't reliable, so you'll need to support partition tolerance.  You'll need to make a software tradeoff between consistency and availability.*
l10n:p -->

### CAP theorem

<p align="center">
  <img src="http://i.imgur.com/bgLMI2u.png"/>
  <br/>
  <i><a href=http://robertgreiner.com/2014/08/cap-theorem-revisited>Источник: CAP theorem revisited</a></i>
  <br/>
  <i><a href=https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A2%D0%B5%D0%BE%D1%80%D0%B5%D0%BC%D0%B0_CAP>Дополнительный источник: Wikipedia</a></i>
</p>

В распределённый системах можно обеспечить только два из трех свойств, указанных ниже:

* **Согласованность данных (Consistency)** - каждый запрос на чтение возвращает самые актуальные данные либо ошибку.
* **Доступность (Availability)** - любой запрос возвращает результат, но без гарантии, что он содержит самую актуальную версию данных.
* **Устойчивость к разделению (Partition Tolerance)** - система продолжает работать, несмотря на произвольное разделение узлов системы из-за проблем с сетью.

*Сетевые соединения ненадеждны, поэтому поддерживать **устойчивость к разделению** необходимо. Выбор придется делать между **согласованностью данных** и **доступностью**.*

<!-- l10n:p
#### CP - consistency and partition tolerance

Waiting for a response from the partitioned node might result in a timeout error.  CP is a good choice if your business needs require atomic reads and writes.
l10n:p -->

#### CP - consistency and partition tolerance

При таком подходе ожидание ответа от узла может привести к ошибке - истечению времени ожидания (timeout error). CP решение хорошо подходит для систем, где необходима атомарность операций чтения и записи.

<!-- l10n:p
#### AP - availability and partition tolerance

Responses return the most recent version of the data available on a node, which might not be the latest.  Writes might take some time to propagate when the partition is resolved.

AP is a good choice if the business needs allow for [eventual consistency](#eventual-consistency) or when the system needs to continue working despite external errors.
l10n:p -->

#### AP - availability and partition tolerance

При таком решении ответы на запросы возвращают данные, которые могут быть не самыми актуальными. Операция на запись может занять некоторое время, если придется ожидать восстановления потерянного соединения с одним из узлов распределённой системы.

AP решение подходит для систем, где система должна продолжать работать несмотря на внешние ошибки и допустима [eventual consistency](#eventual-consistency).

## Consistency patterns

With multiple copies of the same data, we are faced with options on how to synchronize them so clients have a consistent view of the data.  Recall the definition of consistency from the [CAP theorem](#cap-theorem) - Every read receives the most recent write or an error.
l10n:p -->

## Consistency patterns

В распределённой системе можете существовать несколько копий одних и тех же данных. Для достижения согласованности данных, получаемых клиенстким приложением, существует несколько подходов синхронизации этих копий.

<!-- l10n:p
### Weak consistency

After a write, reads may or may not see it.  A best effort approach is taken.

This approach is seen in systems such as memcached.  Weak consistency works well in real time use cases such as VoIP, video chat, and realtime multiplayer games.  For example, if you are on a phone call and lose reception for a few seconds, when you regain connection you do not hear what was spoken during connection loss.
l10n:p -->

### Weak consistency

После операции записи данных, операция чтения может увидеть эти данные, а может и не увидеть. Используется подход, при котором можно сделать как можно лучше, но с учетом данной ситуации.

Этот подход используеются в таких системах, как memcached. Слабая согласованность применяется в таких системах как VoIP, видео чаты и игры реального времени на несколько игроков.

<!-- l10n:p
### Eventual consistency

After a write, reads will eventually see it (typically within milliseconds).  Data is replicated asynchronously.

This approach is seen in systems such as DNS and email.  Eventual consistency works well in highly available systems.
l10n:p -->

### Eventual consistency

После операции записи данных, операция чтения в конечном счете увидит эти данные (обычно в течение нескольких миллисекунд). Данных в таком случае реплицируются асинхронно.

Такой подход используется в таких системах, как DNS и электронная почта. Согласованность в конечном счете хорошо подходит для систем с высокой доступностью.

<!-- l10n:p
### Strong consistency

After a write, reads will see it.  Data is replicated synchronously.

This approach is seen in file systems and RDBMSes.  Strong consistency works well in systems that need transactions.
l10n:p -->

### Strong consistency

После операции записи данных, операция чтения увидит эти данны. Данные реплицируются синхронно.

Такой подход используеются в файловых системаях и реляционных БД. Сильная согласованность хорошо подходит для систем, где требуются транзакции.

## Availability patterns

There are two main patterns to support high availability: **fail-over** and **replication**.
l10n:p -->

## Availability patterns

Для обеспечения высокой доступности существует два основных паттерна: **отказоустойчивость** и **репликация**.

<!-- l10n:p
### Fail-over
l10n:p -->

### Fail-over

<!-- l10n:p
#### Active-passive

With active-passive fail-over, heartbeats are sent between the active and the passive server on standby.  If the heartbeat is interrupted, the passive server takes over the active's IP address and resumes service.

The length of downtime is determined by whether the passive server is already running in 'hot' standby or whether it needs to start up from 'cold' standby.  Only the active server handles traffic.

Active-passive failover can also be referred to as master-slave failover.
l10n:p -->

#### Active-passive

В таком режиме, активный и пассивный сервер, находящийся в режиме ожидания, обмениваются специальными сообщениями - heartbeats. Если такой сообщение не приходит, то пассивный сервер получает IP адрес активного сервера и восстанавливает работу сервера.

Время простоя определяется в каком состоянии находится пассивный сервер:

* горячее (hot) ожидание - сервер уже работает
* холодное (cold) ожидание - сервер должен быть запущен.

Только активный сервер может обрабатывать клиентские запросы.

<!-- l10n:p
#### Active-active

In active-active, both servers are managing traffic, spreading the load between them.

If the servers are public-facing, the DNS would need to know about the public IPs of both servers.  If the servers are internal-facing, application logic would need to know about both servers.

Active-active failover can also be referred to as master-master failover.
l10n:p -->

#### Active-active

В таком режиме, оба сервера обрабатывают клиентские запросы, распределяют нагрузку между собой.

Если сервера имеют общий доступ, то публичные IP адреса обоих серверов должны быть зарегистрированы в DNS. Если сервера находятся во внутренней сети, то клиентское приложение знать про оба сервера.

Режим "активный-активный" также известен как "ведущий-ведущий".

<!-- l10n:p
### Disadvantage(s): failover

* Fail-over adds more hardware and additional complexity.
* There is a potential for loss of data if the active system fails before any newly written data can be replicated to the passive.
l10n:p -->

### Disadvantage(s): failover

* Отказоустойчивость делает систему более сложной и требует большего количества аппаратного обеспечения.
* Существует вероятность потери данных, если данных не успели реплицироваться во время переключения активного и пассивного серверов.

<!-- l10n:p
### Replication

### Availability in numbers

Availability is often quantified by uptime (or downtime) as a percentage of time the service is available.  Availability is generally measured in number of 9s--a service with 99.99% availability is described as having four 9s.
l10n:p -->

### Availability in numbers

Доступность обычно измеряется как сотношение времени, когда система доступна ко всему промежутку времени измерения. Обычно это количество девяток. Говорят, что сервис с доступностью 99.99%, имеет доступность в четыре девятки.

<!-- l10n:p
#### Availability in parallel vs in sequence

If a service consists of multiple components prone to failure, the service's overall availability depends on whether the components are in sequence or in parallel.
l10n:p -->

#### Availability in parallel vs in sequence

Если сервис состоит из нескольких компонентов, которые могут отказать в обслуживании, доступность сервиса зависит от того, как связаны эти компоненты - последовательно или параллельно.

<!-- l10n:p
###### In sequence

Overall availability decreases when two components with availability < 100% are in sequence:

```

###### In sequence

Общая доступность уменьшается, если два компонента (например, Foo и Bar) с доступностью менее 100% связаны последовательно:

</p>

A Domain Name System (DNS) translates a domain name such as www.example.com to an IP address.

DNS is hierarchical, with a few authoritative servers at the top level.  Your router or ISP provides information about which DNS server(s) to contact when doing a lookup.  Lower level DNS servers cache mappings, which could become stale due to DNS propagation delays.  DNS results can also be cached by your browser or OS for a certain period of time, determined by the [time to live (TTL)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_to_live).

* **NS record (name server)** - Specifies the DNS servers for your domain/subdomain.
* **MX record (mail exchange)** - Specifies the mail servers for accepting messages.
* **A record (address)** - Points a name to an IP address.
* **CNAME (canonical)** - Points a name to another name or `CNAME` (example.com to www.example.com) or to an `A` record.

Services such as [CloudFlare](https://www.cloudflare.com/dns/) and [Route 53](https://aws.amazon.com/route53/) provide managed DNS services.  Some DNS services can route traffic through various methods:

* [Weighted round robin](https://www.g33kinfo.com/info/round-robin-vs-weighted-round-robin-lb)
    * Prevent traffic from going to servers under maintenance
    * Balance between varying cluster sizes
    * A/B testing
* Latency-based
* Geolocation-based

</p>

Система домменных имен (DNS) преобразует доменное имя (например, www.example.com) в IP адрес.

DNS иерархична и имеет несколько корневых серверов. Информацию о том, какой DNS сервер надо использовать, предоставляется вашим маршрутизатором или интернет-провайдером. Нижестоящие DNS сервера кэшируют таблицы соответствия хостов и IP адресов, которые могут устаревать из-за задержки обновления. Результаты преобразования могут быть закэшированы браузером или операционной системой на определенное [Время жизни (Time to live - TTL)](https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_to_live)

Типы записей:

* **Запись NS (name server)** - указывает DNS сервер для вашего домена/поддомена.
* **Запись MX (mail exchange)** - указывает сервера электронной почты для получения сообщений.
* **Запись A (address)** - связывает имя с IP адресом.
* **CNAME (canonical)** - связывает имя с другим именем, записью CNAME (example.com to www.example.com) или записью А.

Такие сервисы, как [CloudFlare](https://www.cloudflare.com/dns/) и [Route 53](https://aws.amazon.com/route53/) предоставляют управлемые DNS сервисы. Некоторые DNS сервисы могут направлять трафик, используя различные методы:

* взвешенный циклический ([Weighted round robin](https://www.g33kinfo.com/info/round-robin-vs-weighted-round-robin-lb)):
  * предотвращает попадания трафика на сервера, находящиеся на обслуживании
  * балансирует трафик для кластера, размер которого может меняться
  * может использоваться для A/B тестирования
* на основе задержки отклика серверов
* на основе геораспределения серверов

### Disadvantage(s): DNS

* Accessing a DNS server introduces a slight delay, although mitigated by caching described above.
* DNS server management could be complex and is generally managed by [governments, ISPs, and large companies](http://superuser.com/questions/472695/who-controls-the-dns-servers/472729).
* DNS services have recently come under [DDoS attack](http://dyn.com/blog/dyn-analysis-summary-of-friday-october-21-attack/), preventing users from accessing websites such as Twitter without knowing Twitter's IP address(es).
l10n:p -->

### Disadvantage(s): DNS

* Запрос на DNS сервер занимает некоторое время, которое может быть сокращено, используя кэширование, описанное выше.
* Управление DNS серверами может быть трудоёмким и поэтому обычно они управляются [правительствами государств, интернет-провайдерами и большими компаниями](http://superuser.com/questions/472695/who-controls-the-dns-servers/472729)
* DNS серверы могут подвергаться [DDoS-атакам](http://dyn.com/blog/dyn-analysis-summary-of-friday-october-21-attack/), в результате пользователи не могут получить доступ к сервисам, например Twitter, не зная его IP адреса(-ов).

## Content delivery network

  <br/>
  <i><a href=https://www.creative-artworks.eu/why-use-a-content-delivery-network-cdn/>Source: Why use a CDN</a></i>
</p>

A content delivery network (CDN) is a globally distributed network of proxy servers, serving content from locations closer to the user.  Generally, static files such as HTML/CSS/JS, photos, and videos are served from CDN, although some CDNs such as Amazon's CloudFront support dynamic content.  The site's DNS resolution will tell clients which server to contact.

Serving content from CDNs can significantly improve performance in two ways:

* Users receive content at data centers close to them
* Your servers do not have to serve requests that the CDN fulfills
l10n:p -->

## Content delivery network

<p align="center">
  <img src="http://i.imgur.com/h9TAuGI.jpg"/>
  <br/>
  <i><a href=https://www.creative-artworks.eu/why-use-a-content-delivery-network-cdn/>Источник: Why use a CDN</a></i>
</p>

Сеть доставки содержимого (Content Delivery Network, CDN) - это глобальная распределённая сеть прокси-серверов, которые доставляют содержимое с серверов, наиболее близко находящихся к пользователю. Обычно в CDN размещаются статические файлы, такие как HTML/CSS/JS, фотографии и видео. Некоторые сервисы, как, например Amazon CloudFront, поддерживают доставку динамического содержимого. DNS запрос на сайт даст ответ на какой DNS сервер клиент должен делать запрос.

<!-- l10n:p
### Push CDNs

Push CDNs receive new content whenever changes occur on your server.  You take full responsibility for providing content, uploading directly to the CDN and rewriting URLs to point to the CDN.  You can configure when content expires and when it is updated.  Content is uploaded only when it is new or changed, minimizing traffic, but maximizing storage.

Sites with a small amount of traffic or sites with content that isn't often updated work well with push CDNs.  Content is placed on the CDNs once, instead of being re-pulled at regular intervals.
l10n:p -->

### Push CDNs

Содержимое Pull CDN обновляется тогда, когда оно обновлеятся на сервере. Разработчик сайта загружает содержимое на CDN и обновляет соотвествующие URL адреса, чтобы они указывали на CDN. Далее, можно сконфигурировать время жизни содержимого в CDN и когда оно должно быть обновлено. Загружается только новое или обновленное содержимое, минимизируя трафик и увеличивая объем хранящихся данных в CDN.

<!-- l10n:p
### Pull CDNs

Pull CDNs grab new content from your server when the first user requests the content.  You leave the content on your server and rewrite URLs to point to the CDN.  This results in a slower request until the content is cached on the CDN.

A [time-to-live (TTL)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_to_live) determines how long content is cached.  Pull CDNs minimize storage space on the CDN, but can create redundant traffic if files expire and are pulled before they have actually changed.

Sites with heavy traffic work well with pull CDNs, as traffic is spread out more evenly with only recently-requested content remaining on the CDN.
l10n:p -->

### Pull CDNs

Pull CDN загружает новое содержимое при первом обращении пользователя. Разработчик сайта оставляет содержимое на своем сервере, но обновляет адреса, чтобы они указывали на CDN. В результате, запрос обрабатывается медленее, ожидая пока содержимое будет закэшировано в CDN.

[Время жизни (Time to live - TTL)](https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_to_live) определяет как долго содержимое будет закэшировано. Pull CDN минимизирует объем хранящихся данных в CDN, но может привести к дополнительному трафику, если время жизни в CDN истекло, а файл на сервере изменен не был.

Pull CDN подходит для загруженных сайтов. Трафик в таком случае распределяется более равномерно и в результате в CDN хранится только то содержимое, к которому обращались недавно.

<!-- l10n:p
### Disadvantage(s): CDN

* CDN costs could be significant depending on traffic, although this should be weighed with additional costs you would incur not using a CDN.
* Content might be stale if it is updated before the TTL expires it.
* CDNs require changing URLs for static content to point to the CDN.
l10n:p -->

### Disadvantage(s): CDN

* Стоимость CDN может быть высока и зависит от объема трафика, но стоит иметь в виду и дополнительные расходы, которые будут если CDN не использовать.
* Содежимое в CDN может оказаться устаревшим, если оно будет обновлено до того, как истечет время жизни (TTL).
* Исходные URL ссылки должны быть изменены и указывать на CDN.

## Load balancer

<p align="center">

  <i><a href=http://horicky.blogspot.com/2010/10/scalable-system-design-patterns.html>Source: Scalable system design patterns</a></i>
</p>

Load balancers distribute incoming client requests to computing resources such as application servers and databases.  In each case, the load balancer returns the response from the computing resource to the appropriate client.  Load balancers are effective at:

* Preventing requests from going to unhealthy servers
* Preventing overloading resources
* Helping eliminate single points of failure

Load balancers can be implemented with hardware (expensive) or with software such as HAProxy.

Additional benefits include:

* **SSL termination** - Decrypt incoming requests and encrypt server responses so backend servers do not have to perform these potentially expensive operations
    * Removes the need to install [X.509 certificates](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X.509) on each server
* **Session persistence** - Issue cookies and route a specific client's requests to same instance if the web apps do not keep track of sessions

To protect against failures, it's common to set up multiple load balancers, either in [active-passive](#active-passive) or [active-active](#active-active) mode.

Load balancers can route traffic based on various metrics, including:

* Random
* Least loaded
* Session/cookies
* [Round robin or weighted round robin](https://www.g33kinfo.com/info/round-robin-vs-weighted-round-robin-lb)
* [Layer 4](#layer-4-load-balancing)
* [Layer 7](#layer-7-load-balancing)

</p>

Балансировщик нагрузки распределяет входящие клиентские запросы между серверами приложений или баз данных, возвращая ответ от конкретного сервера клиенту, от которого пришел запрос. Балансировщики нагрузки используются для:

* предотвращения запроса на неработающий сервер
* предотвращения чрезмерной нагрузки ресурсов
* избежания единой точки отказа

Балансировщики нагрузки могут быть аппаратными (дорогой вариант) или программными (например, HAProxy).

Дополнительные плюсы:

* **SSL-терминация** - расшифровка входящих запросов и шифровка ответов; в таком случае бэкенд-сервера не тратят свои ресурсы на эти потенциально трудоемкие операции
  * нет необходимости устанавливать [X.509 сертификаты](https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/X.509)
* **Сохранение сессии** - выдает куки и перенаправляет клиенсткий запрос на тот же сервер в случае, если сами веб-приложения не хранят сессии.

Для защиты от сбоев, можно использовать вместе несколько балансировщиков в [active-passive](#active-passive) или [active-active](#active-active) режиме.

Балансировщики могут направлять трафик опираюсь на различные метрики, включая:

* случайно
* наименее загруженные сервер
* сессия/куки
* взвешенный циклический ([Weighted round robin](https://www.g33kinfo.com/info/round-robin-vs-weighted-round-robin-lb))
* [Layer 4](#layer-4-load-balancing)
* [Layer 7](#layer-7-load-balancing)

<!-- l10n:p
### Layer 4 load balancing

Layer 4 load balancers look at info at the [transport layer](#communication) to decide how to distribute requests.  Generally, this involves the source, destination IP addresses, and ports in the header, but not the contents of the packet.  Layer 4 load balancers forward network packets to and from the upstream server, performing [Network Address Translation (NAT)](https://www.nginx.com/resources/glossary/layer-4-load-balancing/).
l10n:p -->

### Layer 4 load balancing

Для распределения запросов балансировщики 4го уровня используют транспортный уровень модели OSI [transport layer](#communication). Обычно, используются IP адрес и порт источника и получателя из заголовков пакетов, но не из их содержимого. Балансировщики этого уровня перенаправляют сетевые пакеты с серверов, используя [Network Address Translation (NAT)](https://www.nginx.com/resources/glossary/layer-4-load-balancing/).

<!-- l10n:p
### Layer 7 load balancing

Layer 7 load balancers look at the [application layer](#communication) to decide how to distribute requests.  This can involve contents of the header, message, and cookies.  Layer 7 load balancers terminates network traffic, reads the message, makes a load-balancing decision, then opens a connection to the selected server.  For example, a layer 7 load balancer can direct video traffic to servers that host videos while directing more sensitive user billing traffic to security-hardened servers.

At the cost of flexibility, layer 4 load balancing requires less time and computing resources than Layer 7, although the performance impact can be minimal on modern commodity hardware.
l10n:p -->

### Layer 7 load balancing

Для распределения запросов балансировщики 7го уровня используют прикладной уровень модели OSI [application layer](#communication). Для этого могут быть задействованы заголовок, сообщение и куки. Балансировщики на этом уровне прерывают сетевой трафик, сканируют сообщение, принимают решение, куда отправить запрос и открывают соединение с выбранным сервером. Например, они могут отправить запрос на видео на видео-сервер, а запрос на биллинг - на сервера с усиленной безопасностью.

Балансировка на 4м уровне быстрее и требует меньше ресусров, чем на 7м уровне, но имеет меньшую гибкость. Хотя на современном аппаратном обеспечении эта разница может быть незаметна.

<!-- l10n:p
### Horizontal scaling

Load balancers can also help with horizontal scaling, improving performance and availability.  Scaling out using commodity machines is more cost efficient and results in higher availability than scaling up a single server on more expensive hardware, called **Vertical Scaling**.  It is also easier to hire for talent working on commodity hardware than it is for specialized enterprise systems.
l10n:p -->

### Horizontal scaling

Балансировщики нагрузки могут быть использованы для горизонтального масштабирования, улучшая производительность и доступность. "Масштабирование вширь" используя стандартные сервера дешевле и приводит к более высокой доступности, чем "масштабирование вверх" одного сервера с более дорогим аппаратным обеспечением (**Вертикальное масштабирование**). Так же проще найти и специалиста, который умеет работать со стандартным аппаратным обеспечением, чем со специализированными Enterprise-системами.

<!-- l10n:p
#### Disadvantage(s): horizontal scaling

* Scaling horizontally introduces complexity and involves cloning servers
    * Servers should be stateless: they should not contain any user-related data like sessions or profile pictures
    * Sessions can be stored in a centralized data store such as a [database](#database) (SQL, NoSQL) or a persistent [cache](#cache) (Redis, Memcached)
* Downstream servers such as caches and databases need to handle more simultaneous connections as upstream servers scale out
l10n:p -->

#### Disadvantage(s): horizontal scaling

* Горизонтальное масштабирование увеливает сложность система и предполагает клонирование серверов:
  * Сервера не должны хранить состояние, например сессию или изображение пользователя
  * Сессии должны хранится в центразиванном хранилище, например в [database](#database) (SQL, NoSQL) или в [cache](#cache) (Redis, Memcached)
* С увеличением количества серверов, принимающие сервера на следующем уровне должны обрабатывать больше одновременных запросов

<!-- l10n:p
### Disadvantage(s): load balancer

* The load balancer can become a performance bottleneck if it does not have enough resources or if it is not configured properly.
* Introducing a load balancer to help eliminate single points of failure results in increased complexity.
* A single load balancer is a single point of failure, configuring multiple load balancers further increases complexity.
l10n:p -->

### Disadvantage(s): load balancer

* Балансировщик нагрузки может стать узким место в производительности системы, если он неправильно сконфигурирован или его аппаратное обеспечение слишком слабое.
* Балансировщик нагрузки позволяет избежать единой точки отказа, но увеличивает совокупную сложность всей системы.
* Единственный балансировщик становится единой точкой отказа, использование нескольких балансировщиком еще больше усложняет систему.

  <br/>
</p>

A reverse proxy is a web server that centralizes internal services and provides unified interfaces to the public.  Requests from clients are forwarded to a server that can fulfill it before the reverse proxy returns the server's response to the client.

Additional benefits include:

* **Increased security** - Hide information about backend servers, blacklist IPs, limit number of connections per client
* **Increased scalability and flexibility** - Clients only see the reverse proxy's IP, allowing you to scale servers or change their configuration
* **SSL termination** - Decrypt incoming requests and encrypt server responses so backend servers do not have to perform these potentially expensive operations
    * Removes the need to install [X.509 certificates](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X.509) on each server
* **Compression** - Compress server responses
* **Caching** - Return the response for cached requests
* **Static content** - Serve static content directly
    * HTML/CSS/JS
    * Photos
    * Videos
    * Etc

Обратный прокси-сервер - это веб-сервер, который централизует внутренние сервисы и предоставляет уницифицированный интерфейс для доступа из публичной сети. Клиенсткие запросы перенаправляются на сервер, который их будет обрабабывать, и затем обратный прокси возвращает ответ клиенту.

Дополнительные преимущества:

* **повышенная безопасность** - скрывает информацию о бэкенд-серверах, блокирует IP адреса, ограничивает допустимое количество соединений на клиента
* **повешенная масштабируемость и гибкость** - клиенсткое приложение знает только IP адрес прокси-сервера, таким образом можно менять количество серверов или изменять их конфигурацию
* **SSL терминация** - расшифровка входящих запросов и шифровка ответов; в таком случае бэкенд-сервера не тратят свои ресурсы на эти потенциально трудоемкие операции
  * нет необходимости устанавливать [X.509 сертификаты](https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/X.509)
* **Сжатие** - сжатие ответов сервера клиенту
* **Кэширование** - возвращает ответы для закэшированных запросов
* **Статическое содержимое** - предоставляет статическое содержимое напрямую:
  * HTML/CSS/JS
  * Фотографии
  * Видео
  * и т.д.

### Load balancer vs reverse proxy

* Deploying a load balancer is useful when you have multiple servers.  Often, load balancers  route traffic to a set of servers serving the same function.
* Reverse proxies can be useful even with just one web server or application server, opening up the benefits described in the previous section.
* Solutions such as NGINX and HAProxy can support both layer 7 reverse proxying and load balancing.
l10n:p -->

### Load balancer vs reverse proxy

* Использование балансировщика нагрузки полезно при наличии нескольких серверов. Часто балансировщики направляют трафик на сервера, выполняющие одинаковую функцию.
* Обратный прокси-сервер может быть полезен даже при использовании одного веб-сервера или сервера приложений, предоставляе преимущества, описанные в предыдущей секции
* Такие решения, как NGINX и HAProxy могут поддерживать как реверс-прокси 7го уровня, так и балансировку нагрузки

<!-- l10n:p
### Disadvantage(s): reverse proxy

* Introducing a reverse proxy results in increased complexity.
* A single reverse proxy is a single point of failure, configuring multiple reverse proxies (ie a [failover](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Failover)) further increases complexity.
l10n:p -->

### Disadvantage(s): reverse proxy

* Использование обратного прокси-сервера увиличивает сложность системы в целом
* Использование одного прокси-сервера создает единую точку отказа. Настройка нескольких обратных прокси-серверов ([Аварийное переключение](https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%90%D0%B2%D0%B0%D1%80%D0%B8%D0%B9%D0%BD%D0%BE%D0%B5_%D0%BF%D0%B5%D1%80%D0%B5%D0%BA%D0%BB%D1%8E%D1%87%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%B5)) еще больше усложняет систему.

Separating out the web layer from the application layer (also known as platform layer) allows you to scale and configure both layers independently.  Adding a new API results in adding application servers without necessarily adding additional web servers.  The **single responsibility principle** advocates for small and autonomous services that work together.  Small teams with small services can plan more aggressively for rapid growth.

Workers in the application layer also help enable [asynchronism](#asynchronism).

Разделение веб-уровня и уровня приложение (так же известного как уровень платформы) позволяет масштабировать и настраивать оба уровня независимо. Для добавления нового API может понадобиться добавление нового сервера на уровне приложение, но необязатльно на веб-уровне. **Принцип единой отвественности** подразумевает созданте небольших и автономных сервисов, который работают вместе. Небольшие команды с небольшими сервисами могут быстрее расти.

Worker-сервера на уровне приложений позволяют поддерживать [asynchronism](#asynchronism).

Related to this discussion are [microservices](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microservices), which can be described as a suite of independently deployable, small, modular services.  Each service runs a unique process and communicates through a well-defined, lightweight mechanism to serve a business goal. <sup><a href=https://smartbear.com/learn/api-design/what-are-microservices>1</a></sup>

Pinterest, for example, could have the following microservices: user profile, follower, feed, search, photo upload, etc.

Каждый сервис работает как независый процесс и взаимодействует на основе предустановленного легковесного протокола для обслуживания бизнес задачи. <sup><a href=https://smartbear.com/learn/api-design/what-are-microservices>1</a></sup>

Микросервисы Pinterest могут включать: профиль пользователя, подписчик, лента, поиск, загрущка фото и т.д.

### Service Discovery

Systems such as [Consul](https://www.consul.io/docs/index.html), [Etcd](https://coreos.com/etcd/docs/latest), and [Zookeeper](http://www.slideshare.net/sauravhaloi/introduction-to-apache-zookeeper) can help services find each other by keeping track of registered names, addresses, and ports.  [Health checks](https://www.consul.io/intro/getting-started/checks.html) help verify service integrity and are often done using an [HTTP](#hypertext-transfer-protocol-http) endpoint.  Both Consul and Etcd have a built in [key-value store](#key-value-store) that can be useful for storing config values and other shared data.

### Disadvantage(s): application layer

* Adding an application layer with loosely coupled services requires a different approach from an architectural, operations, and process viewpoint (vs a monolithic system).
* Microservices can add complexity in terms of deployments and operations.

### Disadvantage(s): application layer

* Добавление уровня приложений со слабосвязанными сервисами требует другого подхода для архитектуры и процессов (в отличие от монолитной системы).
* Микросервисная архитектура усложняет развертывание и эксплуатацию сервисов.

### Relational database management system (RDBMS)

A relational database like SQL is a collection of data items organized in tables.

**ACID** is a set of properties of relational database [transactions](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_transaction).

* **Atomicity** - Each transaction is all or nothing
* **Consistency** - Any transaction will bring the database from one valid state to another
* **Isolation** - Executing transactions concurrently has the same results as if the transactions were executed serially
* **Durability** - Once a transaction has been committed, it will remain so

There are many techniques to scale a relational database: **master-slave replication**, **master-master replication**, **federation**, **sharding**, **denormalization**, and **SQL tuning**.
l10n:p -->

### Relational database management system (RDBMS)

Реляционная база данных (SQL) - это набор данных, организованных в виде таблиц.

**ACID** - описывает набор свойст [транзакций для реляционных баз данных](https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A2%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%B7%D0%B0%D0%BA%D1%86%D0%B8%D1%8F_(%D0%B8%D0%BD%D1%84%D0%BE%D1%80%D0%BC%D0%B0%D1%82%D0%B8%D0%BA%D0%B0)).

* **Атомарность (Atomicity)** - каждая транзакция выполняется либо целиком, либо не выполняется совсем (откатывается)
* **Согласованность (Consistency)** - любая транзакция переводит базу данных из одного правильного состояния в другое правильное состояние, сохраняя согласованность данных
* **Изолированность (Isolation)** - параллельное выполнение транзакцией должно иметь такие же результаты, как и их последовательное выполнение
* **Стойкость (Durability)** - после завершение транзакции, данные должны остаться сохранёнными

Существует ряд подходов для масштабирования реляционных баз данных:

* репликация "ведущий-ведомый"
* репликация "ведущий-ведущий"
* федерализация
* шардирование
* денормализация
* SQL тюнинг

<!-- l10n:p
#### Master-slave replication

The master serves reads and writes, replicating writes to one or more slaves, which serve only reads.  Slaves can also replicate to additional slaves in a tree-like fashion.  If the master goes offline, the system can continue to operate in read-only mode until a slave is promoted to a master or a new master is provisioned.

</p>
l10n:p -->

#### Master-slave replication

Ведущий сервер работает на чтение и запись, реплицируя записи на один или более ведомых серверов. Ведомый сервер работает только на чтение. Ведомые сервера могу реплицировать на дополнительные ведомые сервера (как в древовидной структуре). Если ведущий сервер перестает работать, система продолжает работать в режиме только на чтение до тех пор, пока один из ведомых серверов не станет ведущим, или пока новый ведущий сервер не будет создан.

<!-- l10n:p
##### Disadvantage(s): master-slave replication

* Additional logic is needed to promote a slave to a master.

##### Disadvantage(s): master-slave replication

* Для переключения ведомого сервера в ведущий необходима дополнительная логика
* См. [Disadvantage(s): replication](#disadvantages-replication) для пунктом, характерных для подходов "ведущий-ведомый" и "ведущий-ведущий".

<!-- l10n:p
#### Master-master replication

Both masters serve reads and writes and coordinate with each other on writes.  If either master goes down, the system can continue to operate with both reads and writes.

#### Master-master replication

Оба ведущих сервера работают на чтение и запись и координирует операции записи между собою. Если один из ведущих серверов перестают работать, система может продолжать работать на чтение и запись.

</p>

<!-- l10n:p
##### Disadvantage(s): master-master replication

* You'll need a load balancer or you'll need to make changes to your application logic to determine where to write.
* Most master-master systems are either loosely consistent (violating ACID) or have increased write latency due to synchronization.
* Conflict resolution comes more into play as more write nodes are added and as latency increases.
* See [Disadvantage(s): replication](#disadvantages-replication) for points related to **both** master-slave and master-master.
l10n:p -->

##### Disadvantage(s): master-master replication

* Необходим балансировщик нагрузки или понадобиться изменить логику приложение для опеределения куда будет идти запись.
* Большинство систем "ведущий-ведущий" либо слабо согласованы (нарушая ACID) либо имеют большую задержку из-за необходимости синхронизации.
* При возрастании количества серверов на запись (ведущих) возрастает задержка и возникает необходимость разрешения конфликтов.
* См. [Disadvantage(s): replication](#disadvantages-replication) для пунктом, характерных для подходов "ведущий-ведомый" и "ведущий-ведущий".

<!-- l10n:p
##### Disadvantage(s): replication

* There is a potential for loss of data if the master fails before any newly written data can be replicated to other nodes.
* Writes are replayed to the read replicas.  If there are a lot of writes, the read replicas can get bogged down with replaying writes and can't do as many reads.
* The more read slaves, the more you have to replicate, which leads to greater replication lag.
* On some systems, writing to the master can spawn multiple threads to write in parallel, whereas read replicas only support writing sequentially with a single thread.
* Replication adds more hardware and additional complexity.
l10n:p -->

##### Disadvantage(s): replication

* Существует риск потери данных, если ведущий сервер перестает работать до того, как новые данные будут реплицированы на другие сервера.
* Операции записи реплицируются на ведомый сервера. Если совершается много операций на запись, ведомые сервера могут быть перегружены реплицированием этих операций, влияя на производительность операций на чтение.
* С ростом количества ведомых серверов увеличивается объем репликации, что приводит к задержке репликации.
* На некоторых системах, запись на ведущем сервере может делаться в несколько потоков, выполняемых параллельно. Запись на ведомых серверах происходит последовательно в один поток.
* Репликация требует большего количества аппаратного обеспечения и увеличивает общую сложность системы.

#### Federation

<p align="center">

  <br/>
  <i><a href=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w95murBkYmU>Source: Scaling up to your first 10 million users</a></i>
</p>

Federation (or functional partitioning) splits up databases by function.  For example, instead of a single, monolithic database, you could have three databases: **forums**, **users**, and **products**, resulting in less read and write traffic to each database and therefore less replication lag.  Smaller databases result in more data that can fit in memory, which in turn results in more cache hits due to improved cache locality.  With no single central master serializing writes you can write in parallel, increasing throughput.
l10n:p -->

#### Federation

<p align="center">
  <img src="http://i.imgur.com/U3qV33e.png"/>
  <br/>
  <i><a href=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w95murBkYmU>Source: Scaling up to your first 10 million users</a></i>
</p>

Федерализация (или функциальное разделение) разбивает базы данных по функциям. Например, вместо одной монолитной базы данных, можно создать три отдельных базы данных:
**форум**, **пользоватили** и **товары**, что приведет к меньшему количествую операций чтения и записи в каждую базу данных и, как следствие, сократить задержку репликации. Меньшие базы данных позволяют хранить больше данных в памяти, что приводит к более оптимальному использованию кэширования. Из-за отстуствие единого ведущего сервера, операции записи можно делать параллельно, увеличавая пропускную способность.

<!-- l10n:p
##### Disadvantage(s): federation

* Federation is not effective if your schema requires huge functions or tables.
* You'll need to update your application logic to determine which database to read and write.
* Joining data from two databases is more complex with a [server link](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5145637/querying-data-by-joining-two-tables-in-two-database-on-different-servers).
* Federation adds more hardware and additional complexity.
l10n:p -->

##### Disadvantage(s): federation

* Федерализация неэффективна, если схема базы данных требует больших функций или таблиц.
* Неободимо изменить логику приложения, чтобы определить, с какими базами данных работать.
* Операция соединения данных (JOIN) становится сложнее [server link](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5145637/querying-data-by-joining-two-tables-in-two-database-on-different-servers).

#### Sharding

<p align="center">
  <img src="http://i.imgur.com/wU8x5Id.png"/>
  <br/>
  <i><a href=http://www.slideshare.net/jboner/scalability-availability-stability-patterns/>Source: Scalability, availability, stability, patterns</a></i>
</p>

Sharding distributes data across different databases such that each database can only manage a subset of the data.  Taking a users database as an example, as the number of users increases, more shards are added to the cluster.

Similar to the advantages of [federation](#federation), sharding results in less read and write traffic, less replication, and more cache hits.  Index size is also reduced, which generally improves performance with faster queries.  If one shard goes down, the other shards are still operational, although you'll want to add some form of replication to avoid data loss.  Like federation, there is no single central master serializing writes, allowing you to write in parallel with increased throughput.

Common ways to shard a table of users is either through the user's last name initial or the user's geographic location.
l10n:p -->

#### Sharding

<p align="center">
  <img src="http://i.imgur.com/wU8x5Id.png"/>
  <br/>
  <i><a href=http://www.slideshare.net/jboner/scalability-availability-stability-patterns/>Источник: Scalability, availability, stability, patterns</a></i>
</p>

Шардирование распределяет данны между разными базами данных так, что каждя база данных управляет только частью данных. Например, с увеличением количества пользователей в базу данных пользователей добавляются новые сервера (шарды).

Аналогично [federation](#federation), шардинг уменьшает количество операций записи и чтения на каждый сервер, уменьшая репликацию и улучшая кэширование. Размер индексов также уменьшается, что приводит к улучшение производительность и более быстрым запросам. Если один из шардов выходит из строя, другие шарды продолжают работать. Во избежание потери данных можно ввести дополнительную репликацию данных. Так же как и с федерализацией, нету централизованного сервера на запись, что позволяет делать запись параллельно, увиличая пропускную способность.

Расптространненый подход шардирования таблицы пользователей основан на разделении по имени или местоположению.

<!-- l10n:p
##### Disadvantage(s): sharding

* You'll need to update your application logic to work with shards, which could result in complex SQL queries.
* Data distribution can become lopsided in a shard.  For example, a set of power users on a shard could result in increased load to that shard compared to others.
    * Rebalancing adds additional complexity.  A sharding function based on [consistent hashing](http://www.paperplanes.de/2011/12/9/the-magic-of-consistent-hashing.html) can reduce the amount of transferred data.
* Joining data from multiple shards is more complex.
* Sharding adds more hardware and additional complexity.
l10n:p -->

##### Disadvantage(s): sharding

* Логика приложения должна быть адаптирована к работе с шардами, что может привести к более сложным SQL запросам.
* Данные могут неравномерно распределяться среди шардов. Например, использование данных активных пользователей, находящихся на одном шарде, увеличивают нагрузку на него.
  * Балансировка усложняет систему. Функция шардирования, основанная на [consistent hashing](http://www.paperplanes.de/2011/12/9/the-magic-of-consistent-hashing.html) может уменьшить общий объем передаваемых данных.
* Соединение данных (JOIN) из нескольких шардов сложнее
* Шардирование требует большего количества аппаратного обеспечения и увеличивает общую сложность системы.

<!-- l10n:p
#### Denormalization

Denormalization attempts to improve read performance at the expense of some write performance.  Redundant copies of the data are written in multiple tables to avoid expensive joins.  Some RDBMS such as [PostgreSQL](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PostgreSQL) and Oracle support [materialized views](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Materialized_view) which handle the work of storing redundant information and keeping redundant copies consistent.

Once data becomes distributed with techniques such as [federation](#federation) and [sharding](#sharding), managing joins across data centers further increases complexity.  Denormalization might circumvent the need for such complex joins.

In most systems, reads can heavily outnumber writes 100:1 or even 1000:1.  A read resulting in a complex database join can be very expensive, spending a significant amount of time on disk operations.
l10n:p -->

#### Denormalization

Денормализация - это попытка улучшить скорость чтения за счет производительности записи. Избыточные копии данных записываюся в несколько таблиц для избежания сложных операций соединения данных. Некоторый СУБД, например [PostgreSQL](https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/PostgreSQL) и Oracle поддерживают [материализованное представление](https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9C%D0%B0%D1%82%D0%B5%D1%80%D0%B8%D0%B0%D0%BB%D0%B8%D0%B7%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%BD%D0%BE%D0%B5_%D0%BF%D1%80%D0%B5%D0%B4%D1%81%D1%82%D0%B0%D0%B2%D0%BB%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%B5), которые выполнюят задачу хранения избыточных данных и поддержку их согласованности.

При использовании [federation](#federation) и [sharding](#sharding), данные становятся распределенными. В результате выполнение операций соединения данных усложняется. Денормализация может позволить избавиться от необходимости в сложных JOIN запросах.

В большинстве систем, количество операций на чтение значительно больше операций на запись (100:1, или даже 1000:1). Операция на чтение в результате сложного соединения данных может быть очень ресурсоемкой и требованть значительного времени, потраченного на операции c жестким диском.

<!-- l10n:p
##### Disadvantage(s): denormalization

* Data is duplicated.
* Constraints can help redundant copies of information stay in sync, which increases complexity of the database design.
* A denormalized database under heavy write load might perform worse than its normalized counterpart.
l10n:p -->

##### Disadvantage(s): denormalization

* Данные дублируются.
* Ограничения могу помочь поддерживать избыточные копии данных в актуальном состоянии, но увиличивают сложность архитектуры базы данных
* Денормализованная база данных под большой нагрузкой может работать медленее, чем её нормализованный аналог.

#### SQL tuning

SQL tuning is a broad topic and many [books](https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=sql+tuning) have been written as reference.

It's important to **benchmark** and **profile** to simulate and uncover bottlenecks.

* **Benchmark** - Simulate high-load situations with tools such as [ab](http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/programs/ab.html).
* **Profile** - Enable tools such as the [slow query log](http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/slow-query-log.html) to help track performance issues.

Benchmarking and profiling might point you to the following optimizations.
l10n:p -->

#### SQL tuning

SQL тюнинг - это обширная тема, описанная во многих [книгах](https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=sql+tuning)).

Очень важно проводить **бенчмарки** и **профилирование** для имитации и обнаружения узких мест.

* **Бенчмарк** - эталонный тест производительности, имитация высокой нагрузки с помощью таких средств, как [ab](http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/programs/ab.html).
* **Профилирование** - отслеживание проблем производительность с помощью таки средства, как [slow query log](http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/slow-query-log.html)

Проведение бенчмарков и профилирования может указать на следующие шаги оптимизации.

<!-- l10n:p
##### Tighten up the schema

* MySQL dumps to disk in contiguous blocks for fast access.
* Use `CHAR` instead of `VARCHAR` for fixed-length fields.
    * `CHAR` effectively allows for fast, random access, whereas with `VARCHAR`, you must find the end of a string before moving onto the next one.
* Use `TEXT` for large blocks of text such as blog posts.  `TEXT` also allows for boolean searches.  Using a `TEXT` field results in storing a pointer on disk that is used to locate the text block.
* Use `INT` for larger numbers up to 2^32 or 4 billion.
* Use `DECIMAL` for currency to avoid floating point representation errors.
* Avoid storing large `BLOBS`, store the location of where to get the object instead.
* `VARCHAR(255)` is the largest number of characters that can be counted in an 8 bit number, often maximizing the use of a byte in some RDBMS.
* Set the `NOT NULL` constraint where applicable to [improve search performance](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1017239/how-do-null-values-affect-performance-in-a-database-search).
l10n:p -->

##### Tighten up the schema

* Запись в MySQL на смежные блоки для быстрого доступа.
* Использование `CHAR` вместо `VARCHAR` для полей с фиксированной длиной.
  * `CHAR` обеспечивает быстрый произвольный доступ, в случае с `VARCHAR` необходимо найти конец строки для перехода на следующую.
* Использование `TEXT` для больших фрагментов текста (например, блог-посты). `TEXT` позволяет делать булевый поиск. Использование поля типа `TEXT` приводит к хранению указателя на диске, которые иоспользуется для поиска этого блока.
* Использование `INT` для больших числе до 2^32.
* Использование `DECIMAL` для денежных едениц для избежания ошибок, связанных с представлением в формате с плавающей точкой.
* Избежание хранения большиъ `BLOBS`, вместо этого хранение указателя на место хранения объекта.
* Установка ограничения `NOT NULL`, где возможно, для улучшения производительности ([improve search performance](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1017239/how-do-null-values-affect-performance-in-a-database-search)).


<!-- l10n:p
##### Use good indices

* Columns that you are querying (`SELECT`, `GROUP BY`, `ORDER BY`, `JOIN`) could be faster with indices.
* Indices are usually represented as self-balancing [B-tree](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B-tree) that keeps data sorted and allows searches, sequential access, insertions, and deletions in logarithmic time.
* Placing an index can keep the data in memory, requiring more space.
* Writes could also be slower since the index also needs to be updated.
* When loading large amounts of data, it might be faster to disable indices, load the data, then rebuild the indices.
l10n:p -->

##### Use good indices

* Запрос столбцов (включая операторы `SELECT`, `GROUP BY`, `ORDER BY`, `JOIN`) может быть быстрее с индексами.
* Индексы обычно представляют собой самобалансирующиеся [B-деревья](https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/B-%D0%B4%D0%B5%D1%80%D0%B5%D0%B2%D0%BE), которые хранят данные отсортированными, позволяют поиск, последовательный доступ, вставку и удаление с логарифмической сложностью.
* Создание индексы может потребовать хранения данных в памяти, требуя больше места.
* Операции записи могут быть медленне, так как индекс тоже необходимо обновлять.
* При загрузке большого объема данных отключение индексов может помочь для ускорения этой операции; индексы в таком случае обновляются после загрузки данных.

### NoSQL

NoSQL is a collection of data items represented in a **key-value store**, **document store**, **wide column store**, or a **graph database**.  Data is denormalized, and joins are generally done in the application code.  Most NoSQL stores lack true ACID transactions and favor [eventual consistency](#eventual-consistency).

**BASE** is often used to describe the properties of NoSQL databases.  In comparison with the [CAP Theorem](#cap-theorem), BASE chooses availability over consistency.

* **Basically available** - the system guarantees availability.
* **Soft state** - the state of the system may change over time, even without input.
* **Eventual consistency** - the system will become consistent over a period of time, given that the system doesn't receive input during that period.

In addition to choosing between [SQL or NoSQL](#sql-or-nosql), it is helpful to understand which type of NoSQL database best fits your use case(s).  We'll review **key-value stores**, **document stores**, **wide column stores**, and **graph databases** in the next section.
l10n:p -->

### NoSQL

NoSQL - это набор данных, представленных в виде **базы ключ-значение**, **документориентированной базы данных**, **колоночной базы данных** или **графовой база данных**. Данны денормализованы и операции соединения данных обычно происходят на уровне кода. Большинство NoSQL хранилищ не поддерживают ACID свойств транзакий и характеризуются [согласованностью в конечном счете](https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A1%D0%BE%D0%B3%D0%BB%D0%B0%D1%81%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%BD%D0%BE%D1%81%D1%82%D1%8C_%D0%B2_%D0%BA%D0%BE%D0%BD%D0%B5%D1%87%D0%BD%D0%BE%D0%BC_%D1%81%D1%87%D1%91%D1%82%D0%B5).

Для описания свойств NoSQL баз данных используют **BASE** свойства. Согласно [CAP Theorem](#cap-theorem), BASE придерживается доступности данных, а не их согласованности.

* **В целом доступные** - система гарантирует доступность.
* **Неокончательное (soft) удаление** - состояние ситемы может со временем измениться, даже без дополнительный операций.
* **Согласованность в конечном счете (eventual consistency)** - данные в системе станут согласованными в течение некоторого времени, если в течение этого времени не будут приходить новые данные.

Вместе с выбором между [SQL or NoSQL](#sql-or-nosql), надо сделать выбор типа NoSQL базы данных, которая подходит для вашего сценария использования. В следующей секции представлены **базы ключ-значение**, **документориентированные базы данных**, **колоночные базы данных** или **графовые база данных**.

#### Key-value store

> Abstraction: hash table

A key-value store generally allows for O(1) reads and writes and is often backed by memory or SSD.  Data stores can maintain keys in [lexicographic order](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lexicographical_order), allowing efficient retrieval of key ranges.  Key-value stores can allow for storing of metadata with a value.

Key-value stores provide high performance and are often used for simple data models or for rapidly-changing data, such as an in-memory cache layer.  Since they offer only a limited set of operations, complexity is shifted to the application layer if additional operations are needed.

A key-value store is the basis for more complex systems such as a document store, and in some cases, a graph database.
l10n:p -->

#### Key-value store

> Абстракция: хэщ-таблица

База данных типа ключ-значение обычно позволяет выполнять операции чтение и записи со сложностью O(1) и используют оперативную память или SSD. Эти базы данных могут поддерживать [лексикографический порядок](https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9B%D0%B5%D0%BA%D1%81%D0%B8%D0%BA%D0%BE%D0%B3%D1%80%D0%B0%D1%84%D0%B8%D1%87%D0%B5%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B8%D0%B9_%D0%BF%D0%BE%D1%80%D1%8F%D0%B4%D0%BE%D0%BA), позволяя эффективно выполнять запросы на диапазон ключей. Базы этого типа позволяют хранить мета-данные вместе с данными.

Такие базы данных имеют высокую производительность и обычно используют для простых моделей данных или для быстро изменяющихся данных, таких как кэши, находящиейся в оперативной памяти. Обычно они предоставляют ограниченный набор действий. Поэтому сложность смещается на уровень приложение в том случае, если необходимы дополнительные действия.

Базы данных типа ключ-значнеие являются основой для более сложных система, таких как Документоориентированных базы данных, и, в некоторых случаях, графовые базы данных.

#### Document store

> Abstraction: key-value store with documents stored as values

A document store is centered around documents (XML, JSON, binary, etc), where a document stores all information for a given object.  Document stores provide APIs or a query language to query based on the internal structure of the document itself.  *Note, many key-value stores include features for working with a value's metadata, blurring the lines between these two storage types.*

Based on the underlying implementation, documents are organized by collections, tags, metadata, or directories.  Although documents can be organized or grouped together, documents may have fields that are completely different from each other.

Some document stores like [MongoDB](https://www.mongodb.com/mongodb-architecture) and [CouchDB](https://blog.couchdb.org/2016/08/01/couchdb-2-0-architecture/) also provide a SQL-like language to perform complex queries.  [DynamoDB](http://www.read.seas.harvard.edu/~kohler/class/cs239-w08/decandia07dynamo.pdf) supports both key-values and documents.

Document stores provide high flexibility and are often used for working with occasionally changing data.
l10n:p -->

#### Document store

> Абстракция: база данных "ключ-значение" с документами в качестве значения

Документнориентированная база данных работает с документами (XML, JSON, бинарные и др.), где документ хранит все информацию об объекте. Такие базы данные предоставляют API или язык для запросов по внутренней структуре самих документов. *Обратите внимание, что такая же функциональность может быть доступна и для метаданных, тем самым размывая разницу между этими двумя типа данных.*

В зависимости от реализации, документы могут быть организованы по коллекциям, меткам, метаданным или директориям. Документы могут быть организованы и сгруппированы вместе, и одновременно иметь поля, которых нет в других документах.

Такие базы данных как [MongoDB](https://www.mongodb.com/mongodb-architecture) и [CouchDB](https://blog.couchdb.org/2016/08/01/couchdb-2-0-architecture/) предоставляют SQL-подобный язык для выполнения сложных запросов. [DynamoDB](http://www.read.seas.harvard.edu/~kohler/class/cs239-w08/decandia07dynamo.pdf) работает с данными в виде "ключ-значение" и с документами.

Документоориентированные базы данных предоставляют высокую гибкость и часто используются для работы с данными, структура которых может меняться.

#### Wide column store

  <i><a href=http://blog.grio.com/2015/11/sql-nosql-a-brief-history.html>Source: SQL & NoSQL, a brief history</a></i>
</p>

> Abstraction: nested map `ColumnFamily<RowKey, Columns<ColKey, Value, Timestamp>>`

A wide column store's basic unit of data is a column (name/value pair).  A column can be grouped in column families (analogous to a SQL table).  Super column families further group column families.  You can access each column independently with a row key, and columns with the same row key form a row.  Each value contains a timestamp for versioning and for conflict resolution.

Google introduced [Bigtable](http://www.read.seas.harvard.edu/~kohler/class/cs239-w08/chang06bigtable.pdf) as the first wide column store, which influenced the open-source [HBase](https://www.mapr.com/blog/in-depth-look-hbase-architecture) often-used in the Hadoop ecosystem, and [Cassandra](http://docs.datastax.com/en/cassandra/3.0/cassandra/architecture/archIntro.html) from Facebook.  Stores such as BigTable, HBase, and Cassandra maintain keys in lexicographic order, allowing efficient retrieval of selective key ranges.

Wide column stores offer high availability and high scalability.  They are often used for very large data sets.

</p>

> Абстракция: вложенная ассоциативная таблица `ColumnFamily<RowKey, Columns<ColKey, Value, Timestamp>>`

Основной единицой данных в колоночных базах данных является колонка - пара имя/значение. Колонки могут быть сгруппированы в семейства колонок (по аналогии с SQL таблицей). Следующим уровнем будет супер-семейство колонок. Значение каждой колонки можно получить по ключу строки. Все колонки с одинаковым ключом строки формируют строку. Каждое значение содержит временную метку для версионности и разрешения конфликтов.

Google представили [Bigtable](http://www.read.seas.harvard.edu/~kohler/class/cs239-w08/chang06bigtable.pdf), как первую колоночную базу данных, которая была создана под влиянием [HBase](https://www.mapr.com/blog/in-depth-look-hbase-architecture), часто используемой в экосистеме Hadoop, и [Cassandra](http://docs.datastax.com/en/cassandra/3.0/cassandra/architecture/archIntro.html) от Facebook. BigTable, HBase, and Cassandra и другие базы данных этого типа хранят ключи в лексикографическом порядке, позволяя делать эффективные запросы по диапазону ключей.

Колоночные базы данных имеют высокую доступность и масштабируемость. Часто они используются для очень больших объемов данных.

</p>

> Abstraction: graph

In a graph database, each node is a record and each arc is a relationship between two nodes.  Graph databases are optimized to represent complex relationships with many foreign keys or many-to-many relationships.

Graphs databases offer high performance for data models with complex relationships, such as a social network.  They are relatively new and are not yet widely-used; it might be more difficult to find development tools and resources.  Many graphs can only be accessed with [REST APIs](#representational-state-transfer-rest).

> Абстракция: граф

В графовой базе данных, каждый узел это запись, а ребра это связь между двумя узлаим. Графовые базы данных оптимизированы для представление сложных связей с множеством внешних ключей или связей многих ко многим.

Графовые базы данных имеют высокую производительность для моделей данных со сложными связями, как в социальных сетях. Они относительно новые и не пока не используются широко. Может быть сложно найти средства и ресурсы для их разработки. Получить доступ ко многим графам можно только с помощью [REST APIs](#representational-state-transfer-rest).

Reasons for **SQL**:

* Structured data
* Strict schema
* Relational data
* Need for complex joins
* Transactions
* Clear patterns for scaling
* More established: developers, community, code, tools, etc
* Lookups by index are very fast

Reasons for **NoSQL**:

* Semi-structured data
* Dynamic or flexible schema
* Non-relational data
* No need for complex joins
* Store many TB (or PB) of data
* Very data intensive workload
* Very high throughput for IOPS

Sample data well-suited for NoSQL:

* Rapid ingest of clickstream and log data
* Leaderboard or scoring data
* Temporary data, such as a shopping cart
* Frequently accessed ('hot') tables
* Metadata/lookup tables

  <br/>
  <i><a href=https://www.infoq.com/articles/Transition-RDBMS-NoSQL/>Source: Transitioning from RDBMS to NoSQL</a></i>
</p>

Причины использовать **SQL**:

* Структурированные данные
* Строгая схема
* Реаляционные данные
* Необходимость сложных соединений (JOIN)
* Транзакции
* Понятные шаблоны масштабирования
* Широко используются: разработчики, сообщество, код, средства и т.д.
* Поиск по индексу очень быстрый

Причины использовать **NoSQL**:

* Частично-структурированные данные
* Динамическая или гибкая схема данных
* Нереляицонные данные
* Нет необходимости в сложных соединениях (JOIN)
* Хранение большого количества данных (TB или PB)
* Очень большая нагрузка связанная с работой с данными
* Большая пропуская способность для IOPS (количество операций ввода-вывода в секунду)

Примеры данных, хорошо подходящих для NoSQL:

* Скоростное сохранение clickstream данных и данных журналирования (logs)
* Список лидеров или общий счет
* Временные данные, например, корзина
* Таблицы с частым доступом (горячие таблицы)
* Метаданные или данные для поиска

</p>

Caching improves page load times and can reduce the load on your servers and databases.  In this model, the dispatcher will first lookup if the request has been made before and try to find the previous result to return, in order to save the actual execution.

Databases often benefit from a uniform distribution of reads and writes across its partitions.  Popular items can skew the distribution, causing bottlenecks.  Putting a cache in front of a database can help absorb uneven loads and spikes in traffic.

## Cache

TBD

<!-- l10n:p
### Client caching

Caches can be located on the client side (OS or browser), [server side](#reverse-proxy-web-server), or in a distinct cache layer.
l10n:p -->

### Client caching

TBD

<!-- l10n:p
### CDN caching

[CDNs](#content-delivery-network) are considered a type of cache.
l10n:p -->

### CDN caching

TBD

<!-- l10n:p
### Web server caching

[Reverse proxies](#reverse-proxy-web-server) and caches such as [Varnish](https://www.varnish-cache.org/) can serve static and dynamic content directly.  Web servers can also cache requests, returning responses without having to contact application servers.
l10n:p -->

### Web server caching

TBD

<!-- l10n:p
### Database caching

Your database usually includes some level of caching in a default configuration, optimized for a generic use case.  Tweaking these settings for specific usage patterns can further boost performance.
l10n:p -->

### Database caching

TBD

<!-- l10n:p
### Application caching

In-memory caches such as Memcached and Redis are key-value stores between your application and your data storage.  Since the data is held in RAM, it is much faster than typical databases where data is stored on disk.  RAM is more limited than disk, so [cache invalidation](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cache_algorithms) algorithms such as [least recently used (LRU)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cache_algorithms#Least_Recently_Used) can help invalidate 'cold' entries and keep 'hot' data in RAM.

Redis has the following additional features:

* Persistence option
* Built-in data structures such as sorted sets and lists

There are multiple levels you can cache that fall into two general categories: **database queries** and **objects**:

* Row level
* Query-level
* Fully-formed serializable objects
* Fully-rendered HTML

Generally, you should try to avoid file-based caching, as it makes cloning and auto-scaling more difficult.
l10n:p -->

### Application caching

TBD

<!-- l10n:p
### Caching at the database query level

Whenever you query the database, hash the query as a key and store the result to the cache.  This approach suffers from expiration issues:

* Hard to delete a cached result with complex queries
* If one piece of data changes such as a table cell, you need to delete all cached queries that might include the changed cell
l10n:p -->

### Caching at the database query level

TBD

<!-- l10n:p
### Caching at the object level

See your data as an object, similar to what you do with your application code.  Have your application assemble the dataset from the database into a class instance or a data structure(s):

* Remove the object from cache if its underlying data has changed
* Allows for asynchronous processing: workers assemble objects by consuming the latest cached object

Suggestions of what to cache:

* User sessions
* Fully rendered web pages
* Activity streams
* User graph data
l10n:p -->

### Caching at the object level

TBD

<!-- l10n:p
### When to update the cache

Since you can only store a limited amount of data in cache, you'll need to determine which cache update strategy works best for your use case.

The application is responsible for reading and writing from storage.  The cache does not interact with storage directly.  The application does the following:

* Look for entry in cache, resulting in a cache miss
* Load entry from the database
* Add entry to cache
* Return entry

```python
def get_user(self, user_id):
    user = cache.get("user.{0}", user_id)
    if user is None:
        user = db.query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE user_id = {0}", user_id)
        if user is not None:
            key = "user.{0}".format(user_id)
            cache.set(key, json.dumps(user))
    return user
```

[Memcached](https://memcached.org/) is generally used in this manner.

Subsequent reads of data added to cache are fast.  Cache-aside is also referred to as lazy loading.  Only requested data is cached, which avoids filling up the cache with data that isn't requested.

#### Cache-aside

TBD

<!-- l10n:p
##### Disadvantage(s): cache-aside

* Each cache miss results in three trips, which can cause a noticeable delay.
* Data can become stale if it is updated in the database.  This issue is mitigated by setting a time-to-live (TTL) which forces an update of the cache entry, or by using write-through.
* When a node fails, it is replaced by a new, empty node, increasing latency.

The application uses the cache as the main data store, reading and writing data to it, while the cache is responsible for reading and writing to the database:

* Application adds/updates entry in cache
* Cache synchronously writes entry to data store
* Return

Application code:

```python
set_user(12345, {"foo":"bar"})
```

Cache code:

```python
def set_user(user_id, values):
    user = db.query("UPDATE Users WHERE id = {0}", user_id, values)
    cache.set(user_id, user)
```

Write-through is a slow overall operation due to the write operation, but subsequent reads of just written data are fast.  Users are generally more tolerant of latency when updating data than reading data.  Data in the cache is not stale.
l10n:p -->

#### Write-through

TBD

<!-- l10n:p
##### Disadvantage(s): write through

* When a new node is created due to failure or scaling, the new node will not cache entries until the entry is updated in the database.  Cache-aside in conjunction with write through can mitigate this issue.
* Most data written might never be read, which can be minimized with a TTL.

TBD

<!-- l10n:p

You can configure the cache to automatically refresh any recently accessed cache entry prior to its expiration.

Refresh-ahead can result in reduced latency vs read-through if the cache can accurately predict which items are likely to be needed in the future.

Asynchronous workflows help reduce request times for expensive operations that would otherwise be performed in-line.  They can also help by doing time-consuming work in advance, such as periodic aggregation of data.
l10n:p -->

## Asynchronism

TBD

<!-- l10n:p
### Message queues

Message queues receive, hold, and deliver messages.  If an operation is too slow to perform inline, you can use a message queue with the following workflow:

* An application publishes a job to the queue, then notifies the user of job status
* A worker picks up the job from the queue, processes it, then signals the job is complete

The user is not blocked and the job is processed in the background.  During this time, the client might optionally do a small amount of processing to make it seem like the task has completed.  For example, if posting a tweet, the tweet could be instantly posted to your timeline, but it could take some time before your tweet is actually delivered to all of your followers.

**[Redis](https://redis.io/)** is useful as a simple message broker but messages can be lost.

**[RabbitMQ](https://www.rabbitmq.com/)** is popular but requires you to adapt to the 'AMQP' protocol and manage your own nodes.

**[Amazon SQS](https://aws.amazon.com/sqs/)** is hosted but can have high latency and has the possibility of messages being delivered twice.

### Task queues

### Back pressure

If queues start to grow significantly, the queue size can become larger than memory, resulting in cache misses, disk reads, and even slower performance.  [Back pressure](http://mechanical-sympathy.blogspot.com/2012/05/apply-back-pressure-when-overloaded.html) can help by limiting the queue size, thereby maintaining a high throughput rate and good response times for jobs already in the queue.  Once the queue fills up, clients get a server busy or HTTP 503 status code to try again later.  Clients can retry the request at a later time, perhaps with [exponential backoff](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_backoff).

### Hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP)

HTTP is a method for encoding and transporting data between a client and a server.  It is a request/response protocol: clients issue requests and servers issue responses with relevant content and completion status info about the request.  HTTP is self-contained, allowing requests and responses to flow through many intermediate routers and servers that perform load balancing, caching, encryption, and compression.

A basic HTTP request consists of a verb (method) and a resource (endpoint).  Below are common HTTP verbs:

| Verb | Description | Idempotent* | Safe | Cacheable |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| GET | Reads a resource | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| POST | Creates a resource or trigger a process that handles data | No | No | Yes if response contains freshness info |
| PUT | Creates or replace a resource | Yes | No | No |
| PATCH | Partially updates a resource | No | No | Yes if response contains freshness info |
| DELETE | Deletes a resource | Yes | No | No |

*Can be called many times without different outcomes.

HTTP is an application layer protocol relying on lower-level protocols such as **TCP** and **UDP**.

</p>

TCP is a connection-oriented protocol over an [IP network](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Protocol).  Connection is established and terminated using a [handshake](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handshaking).  All packets sent are guaranteed to reach the destination in the original order and without corruption through:

* Sequence numbers and [checksum fields](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_Control_Protocol#Checksum_computation) for each packet
* [Acknowledgement](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acknowledgement_(data_networks)) packets and automatic retransmission

If the sender does not receive a correct response, it will resend the packets.  If there are multiple timeouts, the connection is dropped.  TCP also implements [flow control](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_control_(data)) and [congestion control](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_congestion#Congestion_control).  These guarantees cause delays and generally result in less efficient transmission than UDP.

To ensure high throughput, web servers can keep a large number of TCP connections open, resulting in high memory usage.  It can be expensive to have a large number of open connections between web server threads and say, a [memcached](https://memcached.org/) server.  [Connection pooling](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connection_pool) can help in addition to switching to UDP where applicable.

TCP is useful for applications that require high reliability but are less time critical.  Some examples include web servers, database info, SMTP, FTP, and SSH.

Use TCP over UDP when:

* You need all of the data to arrive intact
* You want to automatically make a best estimate use of the network throughput

</p>

UDP is connectionless.  Datagrams (analogous to packets) are guaranteed only at the datagram level.  Datagrams might reach their destination out of order or not at all.  UDP does not support congestion control.  Without the guarantees that TCP support, UDP is generally more efficient.

UDP can broadcast, sending datagrams to all devices on the subnet.  This is useful with [DHCP](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_Host_Configuration_Protocol) because the client has not yet received an IP address, thus preventing a way for TCP to stream without the IP address.

UDP is less reliable but works well in real time use cases such as VoIP, video chat, streaming, and realtime multiplayer games.

Use UDP over TCP when:

* You need the lowest latency
* Late data is worse than loss of data
* You want to implement your own error correction

### Remote procedure call (RPC)

<p align="center">

</p>

In an RPC, a client causes a procedure to execute on a different address space, usually a remote server.  The procedure is coded as if it were a local procedure call, abstracting away the details of how to communicate with the server from the client program.  Remote calls are usually slower and less reliable than local calls so it is helpful to distinguish RPC calls from local calls.  Popular RPC frameworks include [Protobuf](https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/), [Thrift](https://thrift.apache.org/), and [Avro](https://avro.apache.org/docs/current/).

RPC is a request-response protocol:

* **Client program** - Calls the client stub procedure.  The parameters are pushed onto the stack like a local procedure call.
* **Client stub procedure** - Marshals (packs) procedure id and arguments into a request message.
* **Client communication module** - OS sends the message from the client to the server.
* **Server communication module** - OS passes the incoming packets to the server stub procedure.
* **Server stub procedure** -  Unmarshalls the results, calls the server procedure matching the procedure id and passes the given arguments.
* The server response repeats the steps above in reverse order.

Sample RPC calls:

```
GET /someoperation?data=anId

POST /anotheroperation
{
  "data":"anId";
  "anotherdata": "another value"
}
```

RPC is focused on exposing behaviors.  RPCs are often used for performance reasons with internal communications, as you can hand-craft native calls to better fit your use cases.

Choose a native library (aka SDK) when:

* You know your target platform.
* You want to control how your "logic" is accessed.
* You want to control how error control happens off your library.
* Performance and end user experience is your primary concern.

HTTP APIs following **REST** tend to be used more often for public APIs.
l10n:p -->

### Remote procedure call (RPC)

TBD

<!-- l10n:p
#### Disadvantage(s): RPC

* RPC clients become tightly coupled to the service implementation.
* A new API must be defined for every new operation or use case.
* It can be difficult to debug RPC.
* You might not be able to leverage existing technologies out of the box.  For example, it might require additional effort to ensure [RPC calls are properly cached](http://etherealbits.com/2012/12/debunking-the-myths-of-rpc-rest/) on caching servers such as [Squid](http://www.squid-cache.org/).
l10n:p -->

#### Disadvantage(s): RPC

TBD

<!-- l10n:p
### Representational state transfer (REST)

REST is an architectural style enforcing a client/server model where the client acts on a set of resources managed by the server.  The server provides a representation of resources and actions that can either manipulate or get a new representation of resources.  All communication must be stateless and cacheable.

There are four qualities of a RESTful interface:

* **Identify resources (URI in HTTP)** - use the same URI regardless of any operation.
* **Change with representations (Verbs in HTTP)** - use verbs, headers, and body.
* **Self-descriptive error message (status response in HTTP)** - Use status codes, don't reinvent the wheel.
* **[HATEOAS](http://restcookbook.com/Basics/hateoas/) (HTML interface for HTTP)** - your web service should be fully accessible in a browser.

Sample REST calls:

```
GET /someresources/anId

PUT /someresources/anId
{"anotherdata": "another value"}
```

REST is focused on exposing data.  It minimizes the coupling between client/server and is often used for public HTTP APIs.  REST uses a more generic and uniform method of exposing resources through URIs, [representation through headers](https://github.com/for-GET/know-your-http-well/blob/master/headers.md), and actions through verbs such as GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, and PATCH.  Being stateless, REST is great for horizontal scaling and partitioning.
l10n:p -->

### Representational state transfer (REST)

TBD

<!-- l10n:p
#### Disadvantage(s): REST

* With REST being focused on exposing data, it might not be a good fit if resources are not naturally organized or accessed in a simple hierarchy.  For example, returning all updated records from the past hour matching a particular set of events is not easily expressed as a path.  With REST, it is likely to be implemented with a combination of URI path, query parameters, and possibly the request body.
* REST typically relies on a few verbs (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, and PATCH) which sometimes doesn't fit your use case.  For example, moving expired documents to the archive folder might not cleanly fit within these verbs.
* Fetching complicated resources with nested hierarchies requires multiple round trips between the client and server to render single views, e.g. fetching content of a blog entry and the comments on that entry. For mobile applications operating in variable network conditions, these multiple roundtrips are highly undesirable.
* Over time, more fields might be added to an API response and older clients will receive all new data fields, even those that they do not need, as a result, it bloats the payload size and leads to larger latencies.

Send packet CA->Netherlands->CA    150,000,000   ns  150,000 us  150 ms

Notes
-----
1 ns = 10^-9 seconds
1 us = 10^-6 seconds = 1,000 ns
1 ms = 10^-3 seconds = 1,000 us = 1,000,000 ns
```

Handy metrics based on numbers above:

* Read sequentially from disk at 30 MB/s
* Read sequentially from 1 Gbps Ethernet at 100 MB/s
* Read sequentially from SSD at 1 GB/s
* Read sequentially from main memory at 4 GB/s
* 6-7 world-wide round trips per second
* 2,000 round trips per second within a data center
