This article is first one from the series of articles dedicated to system design interviews. Here i am going to present the base scenario to consider before starting to solve system design problems. Questions to ask? 1) what is the number of requests a website will recieve in a day/month/second? 2) what is the amount of memory a website will deal in a day/month/second? 3) what is the number of servers that can accomodate these requests? To answer this , first we need to remember the below numbers:- 1 million = 10 lakh = 1000000 = 10^6 1 billion = 1000 million = 10^9 1 KB = 1024 B = 10^3 1 MB= 10^6 = 1024 KB 1 GB= 10^9 = 1024 MB 1 TB = 10^12 = 1024 GB Memory we need to see in Bytes Requests we need to see in numbers example :- suppose a website recieves 100M requests every month then:- requests per day = request per month /24 = 416700 requests requests per second = requests per day / (24*360...
