This text identifies, examines, and illustrates fundamental concepts in computer system design that are common across operating systems, networks, database systems, distributed systems, programming languages, software engineering, security, fault tolerance, and architecture. Through carefully analyzed case studies from each of these disciplines, it demonstrates how to apply these concepts to tackle practical system design problems.
To support the focus on design, the text identifies and explains abstractions that have proven successful in practice such as, remote procedure call, client/service organization, file systems, data integrity, consistency, and authenticated messages. Most computer systems are built using a handful of such abstractions. The text describes how these abstractions are implemented, demonstrates how they are used in different systems, and prepares the reader to apply them in future designs.
Features:
Concepts of computer system design guided by fundamental principles.
Cross-cutting approach that identifies abstractions common to networking, operating systems, transaction systems, distributed systems, architecture, and software engineering.
Case studies that make the abstractions real: naming (DNS and the URL); file systems (the UNIX file system); clients and services (NFS); virtualization (virtual machines); scheduling (disk arms); security (TLS).
Numerous pseudocode fragments that provide concrete examples of abstract concepts.
Extensive support. The authors and MIT OpenCourseWare provide on-line, free of charge, open educational resources, including additional chapters, course syllabi, board layouts and slides, lecture videos, and an archive of lecture schedules, class assignments, and design projects.

我旦软院大四教科书,课程直接从mit买的,目前mit这门课的授课教授是spark作者Matei Zaharia。既有趣又硬核的系统设计书。

上半部分刚读过一半,内容比较高大上,尤其是下半部分。

救命为什么都是一堆比喻➕名言警句啊呜呜呜 确实是以生活常见现象来帮助理解but对cs领域介绍度不够深入吧!

starts from first principles, but some of the examples given are kinda dated

只读了一部分。有些啰嗦。收获还是可以的。

- 习题很有意思。尤其是用来印证自己做过的项目的设计问题。值得反复读。- 有机会再读,这个还是兴趣爱好 和 好奇心 还有mental model
