What this session would cover
Proposed outline — the mentor finalises the agenda once this topic is scheduled.
- 1Why resilience & distributed transactions matters — the common problem: One slow dependency cascades into a full outage.
- 2Core concepts in plain language: Timeouts, retries with backoff, circuit breakers, bulkheads, backpressure, load shedding
- 3Going further: graceful degradation, idempotency, sagas, compensating transactions, two-phase commit, failure isolation
- 4Framework walkthrough: Back-of-the-Envelope Estimation, CAP / PACELC, Resilience Patterns
- 5Practical workflow, built live: Timeouts, backoff retries, a circuit breaker and a saga with compensation, tested with fault injection.
- 6How to measure it: Throughput, p99 latency, Availability, Error budget consumption
- 7An illustrative case (a fictional example, not a client result), then live Q&A on your own situation
Who it's for
- • Students and freshers entering tech
- • Working developers and engineers
- • Tech leads and architects
You'd leave with
- Timeouts, backoff retries, a circuit breaker and a saga with compensation, tested with fault injection.
- A working understanding of Back-of-the-Envelope Estimation and CAP / PACELC
- A short list of measures to track: Throughput, p99 latency, Availability
