Basic & Generic System Design for FE Engineer

Why should I learn SD as a frontend engineer ? 🧐

Interview

Frontend Engineer

Backend Engineer

DevOps Engineer

Data Engineer

Software Engineer

Cloud Engineer

曾經,我也有一次系統設計的面試經驗...🙈

I think it‘s not just for the interviews. 🎃

🌚 - Ability to work with complex system

🥺 - Junior Developer -> Senior Developer

😀 - Communicate with different roles

🧐 - FE tends to need BE skills today

From LINE Developer talk in conference

Distributed System 分散式系統 👌

Assume that...

How about..

And how about..

And if...

???

把剛剛的人想成網路流量,交通工具想成伺服器,我們知道單機的 Vertical Scaling 有局限性,也暴露了 Single Point Of Failure 的風險

分散式系統是一組電腦,透過網路相互連接傳遞訊息與通訊後並協調他們行為而成的系統。

運算

服務分流

儲存

只要是分散式,就要特別注意資料一致性的問題。

分散式系統是一個超級複雜的 Topic,今天只會講到皮毛,有興趣可以參考 MIT 6.824 分散式系統課程

我們希望設計出來的系統擁有哪些特性? 👀

「效能增長程度」與「資源投入」成正比

當系統遇到的流量漸漸變大時,我們會希望系統的伺服器或儲存空間也能夠跟著擴展,避免無法負荷的狀況。

 

 

Scalability 可擴展性/可擴縮性

可靠性代表一個系統在它開始執行之後到某個時間點,系統正常執行的機率,也就是系統無故障執行的概率。

Reliability 可靠性

Availability 可用性

可用性是一個容易跟可靠性搞混的指標,它的定義為系統在面對各種異常時可以正確提供服務的能力,更嚴謹的定義為「系統服務不中斷運行時間占實際運行時間的比例。」如果以公式來看:

 

Availability % = (available time / total time) *100

Availability 可用性

Efficiency 高效率

Latency 延遲:執行一個操作要花費的「時間長度」。

Throughput 吞吐量:以一個時間區間作為單位,單位時間內可以執行「幾次」操作,或運算的「次數」。

High Concurrency

 

故名思義,代表一個系統是不是方便管理,是不是能快速迭代新功能?是不是能夠快速追蹤 bug?或是能不能把 infrastructure 抽象化,讓應用工程師可以專注在程式邏輯的開發。

 

 

Manageability 可管理性

IaC (Infrastructure as Code)

面對系統設計時的思維走向 🐝

Step 1. 釐清系統需求

🌚 - Non-Functional Requirements

🌞 - Functional Requirements

Step 2. 關於系統流量、容量、網路頻寬等指標的粗略估算

DAU ? Network Traffic ? Storage Capacity ?Memory  For Caching ? Read : Write = {} : {} ?.......

Step 3. 定義 System Interface

uploadVideo(user_id, video_content, video_location, user_location, ……)

addVideoToFavorite(user_id, video_id, timestamp, …….)

Step 4. 定義 Data Model | DB Schema

User: UserID, Name, Email, DoB, CreationDate, LastLogin, ….


Video: VideoID,VideoLink, VideoLocation, NumberOfLikes, TimeStamp, …

Step 5. High Level Design

Step 6. System Detailed Design

Step 7. Find Trade Off And Try To Solve It

Never feel that your design is perfect

Let's design a Netflix (or YT) like streaming system 🙈

Step 1. 釐清系統需求

🌞 - Functional Requirements

  • Users should be able to upload videos
  • Users should be able to share and view videos.
  • Users should be able to perform searches based on video titles.
  • Our services should be able to record stats of videos, e.g., likes/dislikes, total number of views, etc.
  • Users should be able to add and view comments on videos.

Step 1. 釐清系統需求

🌚 - Non-Functional Requirements

  • The system should be highly reliable, any video uploaded should not be lost.
  • The system should be highly available. Consistency can take a hit (in the interest of availability); if a user doesn’t see a video for a while, it should be fine.
  • Users should have a real-time experience while watching videos and should not feel any lag.

Step 2. 關於系統流量、容量、網路頻寬等指標的粗略估算

Total users:  1.5 Billion

DAU:  800 Million

A user view 5 videos per day on average

So, the total video view per second of our system will be...

800M * 5 / 86400 sec => 46K videos/sec

Step 2. 關於系統流量、容量、網路頻寬等指標的粗略估算

upload : view ratio =>  1 : 200

46K / 200 => 230 videos/sec

230 videos uploaded per second

What about  Storage ?

every minute 500 hours worth of videos are uploaded to our system

One minute of video needs 50MB of storage

 Total storage needed for videos uploaded in a minute would be ...

500 hours * 60 min * 50MB => 1500 GB/min (25 GB/sec)

Step 2. 關於系統流量、容量、網路頻寬等指標的粗略估算

What about  Bandwidth ?

 With 500 hours of video uploads per minute , assuming uploading each minute of the video takes 10MB of the bandwidth, we would be getting 300GB of uploads every minute.

500 hours * 60 mins * 10MB => 300GB/min (5GB/sec)

Assuming an upload:view ratio of 1:200, we would need 1TB/s outgoing bandwidth.

Step 3. 定義 System Interface

Step 4. 定義 Data Model | DB Schema

Step 4. 定義 Data Model | DB Schema

Video metadata storage - MySQL


Videos metadata can be stored in a SQL database. The following information should be stored with each video

  • VideoID
  • Title
  • Description
  • Size
  • Thumbnail
  • Uploader/User
  • Total number of likes
  • Total number of dislikes
  • Total number of views

Step 5. High Level Design

Step 6. System Detailed Design

🌚 - Load Balancing

🎃 - Caching

🌍 - CDN

所以...你現在覺得...我當初面試表現的如何? 🙈
