Misconception: "Just add Nginx and everything is solved." In reality a load balancer only distributes traffic – it won’t speed up a slow DB query.

📷 When all traffic lands on one server it crashes. A load balancer sits in front, decides which server gets each request, and keeps the system alive.

Health checks are the silent hero – they pull unhealthy instances out of rotation automatically.

Round Robin is simple but assumes every request is equal. Weighted Least Connections considers server capacity and current load.

Think of a movie theater with one ticket window vs 5 counters. More counters = faster service, but you still need a rule to assign patrons.

Many think “just add Nginx and you’re done”. It only spreads load – it can’t fix slow DB queries or memory leaks.

This setup didn’t happen in one Amazon cart — it was built slowly, piece by piece, while working full-time and figuring things out along the way.Still not “perfect,” but it’s mine.Drop your setup below 👇
Would love to see what you’re building with.

I used to think load balancing simply means:
“Send traffic to multiple servers.”
But while writing about it, I realized the real job is different:
• avoid overloaded servers
• route traffic to healthy instances
• handle traffic spikes
• reduce single-server dependency

🧵 One thing I've learned building countless systems: Your product WILL fail if you don't design for scale & resilience from day one. I've seen startups crash at 1000 users. Here's why System Design is non-negotiable for every dev 👇💡

Why System Design is critical for YOU:
• 🚀 Job offers are within reach: Top companies test HLD skills.
• ✅ Accelerated career growth: Influence decisions, get promoted.
• 🔥 Product survival: Your own SaaS needs this to pass 1000 users.
I've seen this impact on my projects.

This isn't just theory; it's practical wisdom I wish I knew sooner for every project I've built. It saves headaches, reputations, and cash.
I wrote the full breakdown here:

I've learned System Design is your software's blueprint. It's about anticipating failures & managing load before a single line of production code. High-Level Design (HLD) is where real impact is made, differentiating junior from senior engineers.
