I am looking for something to help with generic system design and building a base for questions especially outside of the usual system design that focuses on web apps.<p>I was once asked a system design question for designing a sports book betting model. I had to come up with a model that calculated odds for many games / parleys.<p>There was nothing about load balances, end users, APIs, or DB choices.<p>Every time I look online I see resources that seem to almost entirely focus on system design for full-stack web and mobile apps. Everything is about load balancers/APIs/latency/replicating data...nothing about how someone might design any other piece of software.<p>Any run into this and have recommendations?
Load balancing / APIs / latency / replicating data is usually handled at OS level (drivers, 'database as an os', traditional 'os', 'caching', memory,hard drive, network load balancing )<p>Programming languate data structure level detail : "Database Internals, A Deep Dive into How Distributed Data Systems Work" by Alex Petrov
This is pretty interesting:<p>The Architecture of Open Source Applications
