Database Selection
Choose a database that supports high read throughput and scalability, such as NoSQL databases (e.g., MongoDB, Cassandra) or NewSQL databases (e.g., CockroachDB, TiDB). Consider using database replicas and sharding to distribute read queries and scale horizontally.
How to Design a Read-Heavy System?
Designing a read-heavy system requires careful consideration of various factors to ensure optimal performance and scalability. A read-heavy system is one in which the majority of operations involve reading data rather than writing or updating it. Examples include content delivery networks (CDNs), social media feeds, and analytics systems. To design a read-heavy system, you need to focus on maximizing read throughput, minimizing latency, and ensuring data consistency.
