Designing Data-Intensive Applications

Martin is a regular conference speaker, blogger, and also open source contributor. He believes that profound technical ideas should be accessible to everyone, and also that deeper understanding will help us develop better software.

Data is at the center of many challenges in system design today. Difficult issues need to be figured out, such as scalability, consistency, reliability, efficiency, and maintainability. In addition, we have an overwhelming variety of tools, including relational databases, NoSQL datastores, stream or batch processors, and message brokers. What are the right choices for your application? How do you make sense of all these buzzwords?

In this practical and also comprehensive guide, author Martin Kleppmann helps you navigate this diverse landscape by examining the pros and cons of various technologies for processing and also storing data. Software keeps changing, but the fundamental principles remain the same. With this book, software engineers and also architects will learn how to apply those ideas in practice, and how to make full use of data in modern applications.
