System Design

System design is the process of defining the architecture, components, modules, interfaces, and data for a system to satisfy specified business requirements. Think of it as creating the architectural blueprint for a digital skyscraper, ensuring it can handle traffic, store data safely, and avoid collapsing under heavy loads. Essentially, it is about making intentional architectural trade-offs to balance performance, cost, and reliability before writing a single line of core application code.
