You need to make applications highly available (minimizing downtime) and operationally robust.

You want to learn how to make data systems scalable, for example, to support web or mobile apps with millions of users.

If any of the following are true for you, you’ll find this book valuable:

Peek behind the scenes of major online services, and learn from their architectures.

Understand the distributed systems research upon which modern databases are built.

Navigate the trade-offs around consistency, scalability, fault tolerance, and complexity.Make informed decisions by identifying the strengths and weaknesses of different tools.Peer under the hood of the systems you already use, and learn how to use and operate them more effectively.With this book, software engineers and architects will learn how to apply those ideas in practice, and how to make full use of data in modern applications. Software keeps changing, but the fundamental principles remain the same. In this practical and comprehensive guide, author Martin Kleppmann helps you navigate this diverse landscape by examining the pros and cons of various technologies for processing and storing data. What are the right choices for your application? How do you make sense of all these buzzwords?

In addition, we have an overwhelming variety of tools, including relational databases, NoSQL datastores, stream or batch processors, and message brokers. Difficult issues need to be figured out, such as scalability, consistency, reliability, efficiency, and maintainability.
