๐ Hi, Iโm Karishma - Senior Software Engineer ๐ฉ๐ปโ๐ป
๐ฑ Iโm starting a learn-in-public journey focused on building strong fundamentals in DSA & System Design.
๐ Starting Jan 1, 2026 - DSA & System Design Journey
From Day 1 of 2026, Iโll share content to help you learn DSA and System Design step by step, from basics to advanced concepts.
๐ Plan
โข First few months โ DSA (basics โ advanced)
โข Then โ Low-Level Design (LLD) & High-Level Design (HLD)
โข Simple concepts first, gradually moving to modular & advanced topics
๐ How itโll work
โข 1 topic = 1 post
โข Clear & simple explanations
โข Practice questions with every topic
๐ค Iโll need your support
Your feedback will help me improve future posts and stay motivated.
If you find this useful, please share it with students & peers so we can learn and grow together.

When you hit โBuy Now,โ should your app wait for each service to respond, or just publish an event and move on?
Thatโs the key difference between ๐๐๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ฌ๐ญ-๐๐ซ๐ข๐ฏ๐๐ง (๐ฌ๐ฒ๐ง๐๐ก๐ซ๐จ๐ง๐จ๐ฎ๐ฌ) and ๐๐ฏ๐๐ง๐ญ-๐๐ซ๐ข๐ฏ๐๐ง (๐๐ฌ๐ฒ๐ง๐๐ก๐ซ๐จ๐ง๐จ๐ฎ๐ฌ) systems.
In this blog, we break down:
โ How each architecture works
โ Real-world pros and cons
โ When to mix both for scalability
๐ก Perfect for engineers mastering system design interviews.

Clearing DSA rounds doesnโt mean youโre a great developer.
It means youโre good at surviving an ancient ritual of pain.
Codeforces is the gym.
LeetCode is the mirror.
Choose wisely.
