This video is pure gold, THE best system design I have EVER seen. Not only you provided a solution, but also how you approached it, the thought process is really helpful. The little points that reveal seniority levels are even bonus. Please keep up the great work! Thanks for sharing!
@@hello_interviewReally great content, would love to see a higher level topic as well, example some distributed system design or a complex product like multi tenant gateway.
Wow, I first found you from reddit, your blog post are exceptional, I like the break down by level of expected candidate performance. Now you're making videos. This is by far the best content I've seen so far preparing for my Meta onsite. Thank you for all the hard work you put on
Hi did you give your meta onsite interview? If yes, could you highlight your overall experience especially System Design round? I too have meta onsite interview in next few days. Thanks!
I never leave a comment but I think I have to leave a comment here. This is the best video for system design interview that I've ever seen on UA-cam. Talking in depth to break up some design choices for mid level and senior/staff is good, and I think it covers lots of other details too. I would highly recommend this!
I can't believe I was searching for a "Ticket Master" SD video 15-20 days ago. I found many good videos, but I didn't watch a video that made me say, "Wow." And then, suddenly, UA-cam recommended this pure gold. Just saw you are at the beginning of your channel; please keep providing this great content.
Love this. This is by far the most realistic demonstration I've watched on how to execute a system design interview with a minimal BS. Thanks for sharing it.
Amazing video. Please keep uploading! I'm currently preparing for an upcoming onsite SD interview so have been hopping channels. I can testify this is by far the best video I've seen! Bless the soul who has put the time & effor to wonderfully craft this video..
Finally. A system design interview that's not done by mid level folks. There's a LOT of it out there and as a staff level EM/Architect at my current workplace, I find them so confusing and hard to learn from. Many of them read a bunch of papers, and just recite whatever the paper says. In fact, following those actually made me unlearn a few of the best practices and expertise I had developed in my current job, as I tried to prep / overfit to system design interviews online. Senior folks looking to interview, BEWARE I loved that you called out "NoSQL vs SQL is an old debate". It really is. When I looked at in memory vs log based messaging queues or Cassandra vs Postgres, you are spot on, in that most of them can do most others, and it's just a question of configuring it right. Subscribing to you, and have bought some mock interviews too from your company!
You get it! Exactly how I felt when reviewing the existing resources. So much of it feels like academic regurgitation. Glad the content resonates and excited to help you prepare for the upcoming interviews :)
This was a fantastic video. I was able to follow what you were doing the entire time, and I loved how you discuss alternative ways to implement things. It's definitely one of the best system design interview videos I've seen. Please make more!
Oh yeah, I also forgot to mention that this video introduced me to the concept of locking a record using a cache entry with a TTL. I hadn't seen that one before, so I really learned something I could use in the future in other system design problems.
Thanks to this channel and videos, I passed my Google interview! I was asked a question similar to the Ticketmaster. I've watched all your videos many times, and they really helped me. Thank you! Keep doing great work!🙌
I’ve watched every System Design mock interview I could find over the past half year and Hello Interview are the BEST. Thank you for such a great resource!
This is excellent. Love how you mentioned the expected answers for different levels of seniority. Really helps to assess where I am and get an understanding of how to move up
After checking a lot of online videos of System Design, I can most certainly say, this is the best System Design content available on internet. Kudos to you!!!
These videos are just so addictive....I feel like coming back and doing more and more....These have all the details that you need in an interview....They are so precious...please add more content. A big shout out to Hello interview ❤❤❤.
This is one of the best and detailed system design video. Thanks for posting this. I like how you pointed out the differences between Mid-level, Senior and Staff in places like using Cron Job, Distributed lock etc. Most of the system design resources online lack that kind of indepth details. Kudos to you. Can't wait to learn more from your videos. Thanks again!
Great video, so far the best to address actual system design interview planning, scoping and execution, and alignment to different levels of engineers!
I am always amazed by the quality you put into your contents. You are one of the few UA-camrs that I actually spend time trying to watch every videos MULTIPLE times to grasp everything. Thank you, much love from Japan.
Please add more videos. I don't get bored by watching your videos. I liked your approach and way of solving the problem. The flow of the video is very very organised and gave a sense to people for approaching their system design interviews.
This is incredible. Learning something for an interview is one thing but enjoying the architecture is something else. I was hooked onto it like a Netflix binge series! Kudos!
Thanks for this! I'm currently prepping for my on-site and this was really helpful. Please continue to put out more videos on different designing problems.
OMG I cannot believe my stars, this the best video I've yet to find for system design, no wonder you have over 100k subscribers (including me) with just 4 videos. I am so looking forward to your next videos.
Love these, these videos provide a nice framework you can apply to solve a problem even if you don’t know about much about the problem. Love it, thanks for amazing content!
Aah thank you for this!! I'm just learning system design for the first time really. This is the first walkthrough I've watched and it is SO helpful to see your process and how all the building blocks fit together! 🤩
Towards the end the "Virtual waiting room" kept me thinking. People who are booking seats for larger venues know which places they want to choose. Keeping an uber and monolith waiting queue is sub-optimal. May be divide the ticket areas in to booking zones (premium, near stage, aisle, etc.) and offer wait for those zones. We can also show what wait queues size, % of seats filled , etc. in these zones while loading/waiting. Nice and Sweet walk through. Hard to find this kind of content for assessing levels. Thank you so much.
This video is hands down the best I've come across for system design. Having watched numerous tutorials in this space, I can confidently say that the level of detail and clarity here is unmatched. I particularly appreciate how the thought process is broken down.
I just came across a gem 💎 This is by far one of the greatest explanation & problem handling for system design interviews I’ve ever seen. Keep posting bro 👏💯
Covered so many concepts and made sense the whole time while maintaining focus on the requirements, unlike other youtubers who are all over the place not even sure what they are doing lol. Amazing video and the best channel for system design!
Great deep dive. As a mid level engineer, it highlights so many things and technologies to look at when doing a system design interview. Really great job!!!!
A very knowledge rich video and not limited to mock interview setup, this is perfect way of teaching, gonna watch all his videos. Amazing work! Thanks a lot...
Thanks Evan King and Hello Interview for this video. This is probably the best system design video I have seen in general. Most of the other available videos on UA-cam on System Design topics just try push most generic components in the diagram and technology jargons without any insight on why they choose that. Such videos just looked like a template for people to do content farming videos on System Design. This approach was much more practical and what might mostly happen in interview 1. The way you explained what kind of Non-functional requirements one should speak of should be relevant to the system you are designing instead of jargons like high availability, low latency, highly scalable, resilient etc. In this case most important was consistency 2. You kept modifying the entities to suit the design and remove bottlenecks as you proceeded. Especially the status column in Tickets table was one good example. 3. You updated the design based on each NFRs explaining how the approach would be different. 4. You continuously challenged your own most basic or naive design, showed us what kind of bottlenecks we would face in that approach, what questions an interviewer ask and how can we solve it more sophistically. It's a great insight for someone like me who do not get the opportunity to work with the big tech companies on such systems. Great learning for us and also to know how a mind should work to tackle problems. Hope to see more of this. I would also suggest people to go through the blog link which you provided since the discussions there with people asking more questions and you giving answers to them give more insights
I'm just starting my journey into System Design, and this video is absolutely fantastic! I truly appreciate the way you’ve broken down the details and clarified what depth an SDE 1/2 or staff engineer should focus on. As a beginner, it can often feel overwhelming to grasp so many concepts and articulate them effectively within 45 minutes. Your approach to keeping things simple and clear is incredibly helpful-thank you! I do have one question: I understand that load balancers and API gateways serve different purposes, but how do you decide which one to use in a scenario? It often feels intuitive to default to a load balancer because of its role in routing, but if you’re specifically asked whether a load balancer is needed, how would you approach answering that, for a problem statement like this?
The way you have structured the whole design as a 5 step process is immensely helpful. It will help us stay focused on the core things in the interview as well as act a guide/pathway to solve any interview problem.
gold video and channel, and you have the experience to back it up. Keep up the high standard (as opposed to a fast churning out of new SD videos that sometimes lack the depth the creator puts into other videos on their channel)
Please make more videos. Yours have just the right structure and content. I just want your videos on more topics. Other people's videos are either not well structured, or go into unnecessary details
I watched several youtubers doing system design, but none of them are as structured and succinct as yours. In fact some people dive so deep that it is practically impossible to tackle that much content in a 45 min interview (35 mins actually). This is awesome and I am really looking forward for more problems. Please keep up the good work.
Excellent video. The process is very good, paritcularly "don't put any detail upfront, wait for the right time to fill up when things are visited in detail". Very nice top down approach. Thanks a lot
Excellent tips about design decisions based on the seniority of the role. I liked the steps articulated at the beginning to give a sense of what's in scope for the interview. Very well structured! It was by far the best system design interview video I have watched on UA-cam
Thank you so much for these videos. They are very well explained and cover all the key parts of the solution without going into unnecessary complexity and depth that really confuses the heck out of me sometimes.
you’re about to get famous very very soon my friend. BE READY! I think you saved my career or maybe I should say my life with this job market. This helped a lot thanks!
Great Video. One of the best video for system design interviews helps point out relevant F&NF requirements, design step by step, find key problem areas, and how to approach a solution.
Best SD video for me so far. I like how you skipped estimations part as I feel the same about them not contributing anything to the design. Starting with basic solutions and evolving them to most optimal like CDC and Redis Lock Db is golden. Wish to see more of this. One thing i was lost is at the virtual Q, that sounds good but couldn’t wrap my head around it. Would love to see a deep dive into it during next videos
one of the best system design interviews I've seen, to the point, everything very clear and justified. There's so much BS out there, this is refreshing. I love how it skips the back of the envelope calculations, truly many times people do it for nothing!
Best system design interview I've seen yet, but it also illustrates the whole challenge of FAANG industrializing the software engineer employment interview.. (ie, this person has been doing dozens of these specific sys designs ) instead of having standard and certification for engineers we rely on a flawed interview process , ie one that encourages people to memorize leetcode and sys design interviews about famous use cases.. I feel like this process is counterproductive for healthy engineering teams, but again this is the best one I've seen..
I think 'how you pick a ticket id from db and then put it safely in redis' needs more detailing.. as by the time we pick a ticket for a user same can be picked for other users unless we introduce randomness and this will result in more db hits to reserve a ticket for a user. Btw you are doing a mind blowing job.. Best channels on youtube for content and especially for the presentability and right behaviour!
Amazingly detailed design..Most of the time, I only get to the 30minute mark of this video in my interviews...I now realize, how deep we can go and what interviews almost always expect these days!
FWIW, keep in mind this is likely more than is needed an in interview (depending on your level). It’s more illustrative of the places you can go deep, rather than where you must
The best video ever. I love the fact that you break the norm around scalability and sql vs nosql. With the advent of aws and managed services the scalability argument really doesn’t makes sense in terms of horizontal scaling. Thank you for the video. Please keep making more videos
Very rarely I comment on videos, and especially tech videos. But this explanation is absolutely wonderful. Loved it so much. The way you approached the problem, slowly getting into the details, and tidbits here n there, makes it perfect way to explain anything. Subscribing right away. THANK YOU!
One of the best system design videos on youtube. Really well explained and detailed designed. Especially liked how you talked about what signals are sent by how you design individual components and how that impacts your seniority level
Amazing video! A friend of mine who took hellointerview course told me to watch this Ticketmaster video to prep my upcoming interviews as it's pure gold. I'm glad I actually listened to him because this video helped clearing out uncertain discussions like SQL vs NoSQL, back of the envelope calculation, etc. Also, love how you pin-point seniority levels based on details and deep diving. Thank you for sharing!
Wow, this is so far my favorite system design video. Superb video my friend, excellent content. I love how you have a very well defined framework to the system design, which allows you to systematically build the design little by little, in a way that makes sense and it is very easy to follow. I cannot wait to see more of your videos. Keep up the good work man 👏🏼
Well done, clearly you've been on both sides of the table in interviews. I understand you wanted to watch the clock closely, but I found the last part of the interview (scalability) a bit hand wavy compared to what came before it.
Additionally I would like you to stress out and discuss a) backend types: like reactive vs non-reactive where applicable. Reactive is non-blocking and hence should serve bigger loads. b) keeping open search in sync feels challenging, maybe better to consider read-only replica set of postgres (aws supports up to 5 replicas syncing asynchronously) with separate access url, though losing full text search possibility, but here we are not dealing with huge texts.
This video is pure gold, THE best system design I have EVER seen. Not only you provided a solution, but also how you approached it, the thought process is really helpful. The little points that reveal seniority levels are even bonus. Please keep up the great work! Thanks for sharing!
Sweet! Encouraging feedback, thank you!

Towards the end the "Virtual waiting room" kept me thinking. People who are booking seats for larger venues know which places they want to choose.

Thanks Evan King and Hello Interview for this video. This is probably the best system design video I have seen in general. Most of the other available videos on UA-cam on System Design topics just try push most generic components in the diagram and technology jargons without any insight on why they choose that. Such videos just looked like a template for people to do content farming videos on System Design.
This approach was much more practical and what might mostly happen in interview
1. The way you explained what kind of Non-functional requirements one should speak of should be relevant to the system you are designing instead of jargons like high availability, low latency, highly scalable, resilient etc. In this case most important was consistency
2. You kept modifying the entities to suit the design and remove bottlenecks as you proceeded. Especially the status column in Tickets table was one good example.
3. You updated the design based on each NFRs explaining how the approach would be different.
4. You continuously challenged your own most basic or naive design, showed us what kind of bottlenecks we would face in that approach, what questions an interviewer ask and how can we solve it more sophistically.

I think 'how you pick a ticket id from db and then put it safely in redis' needs more detailing.. as by the time we pick a ticket for a user same can be picked for other users unless we introduce randomness and this will result in more db hits to reserve a ticket for a user.
Btw you are doing a mind blowing job.. Best channels on youtube for content and especially for the presentability and right behaviour!
There is more than one Redis, can you be more specific as to what you're talking about?
Amazingly detailed design..Most of the time, I only get to the 30minute mark of this video in my interviews...I now realize, how deep we can go and what interviews almost always expect these days!
FWIW, keep in mind this is likely more than is needed an in interview (depending on your level). It’s more illustrative of the places you can go deep, rather than where you must
You just earn a subscriber from this video. Very clear explanations and how to approach the design.
The best video ever. I love the fact that you break the norm around scalability and sql vs nosql. With the advent of aws and managed services the scalability argument really doesn’t makes sense in terms of horizontal scaling. Thank you for the video. Please keep making more videos
Very rarely I comment on videos, and especially tech videos. But this explanation is absolutely wonderful. Loved it so much. The way you approached the problem, slowly getting into the details, and tidbits here n there, makes it perfect way to explain anything.
Subscribing right away.
THANK YOU!
This is super helpful. Best system design video I've watched.
Unbelievable, for the first time I understood system design and so well.. damn... Loved this. keep the work going.
High praise! Love it
One of the best system design videos on youtube. Really well explained and detailed designed. Especially liked how you talked about what signals are sent by how you design individual components and how that impacts your seniority level
These videos are the best! I love the 5 step roadmap, it makes it very easy to build up the design. Thank you so much! More videos please!
Soon!
THIS IS THE BEST SO FAR, PERIOD.
Amazing video! A friend of mine who took hellointerview course told me to watch this Ticketmaster video to prep my upcoming interviews as it's pure gold. I'm glad I actually listened to him because this video helped clearing out uncertain discussions like SQL vs NoSQL, back of the envelope calculation, etc. Also, love how you pin-point seniority levels based on details and deep diving. Thank you for sharing!
Wow, this is so far my favorite system design video. Superb video my friend, excellent content. I love how you have a very well defined framework to the system design, which allows you to systematically build the design little by little, in a way that makes sense and it is very easy to follow. I cannot wait to see more of your videos. Keep up the good work man 👏🏼
Well done, clearly you've been on both sides of the table in interviews. I understand you wanted to watch the clock closely, but I found the last part of the interview (scalability) a bit hand wavy compared to what came before it.
Additionally I would like you to stress out and discuss a) backend types: like reactive vs non-reactive where applicable. Reactive is non-blocking and hence should serve bigger loads. b) keeping open search in sync feels challenging, maybe better to consider read-only replica set of postgres (aws supports up to 5 replicas syncing asynchronously) with separate access url, though losing full text search possibility, but here we are not dealing with huge texts.
Absolute Genius. Watching this video made me want to replace my brain with yours the day before my amazon interview

I'm entry level and even though I couldn't come up with half this stuff I still was able to follow. Learned a lot of new ideas so thanks
