Ever wondered how Instagram handles billions of photos? In this video, I use my 7-step framework to design Instagram from scratch, covering both HLD and LLD for SDE-1/2 interviews.
"Design Instagram"—it’s a classic interview question, but most candidates fail because they dive straight into the newsfeed. In this video, I show you the exact system design framework I use to ensure I never go blank in an interview.
We’ll move beyond the basics and look at how a production-level system actually works, including hybrid feed strategies and database sharding.
🚀 What you will learn:
✅ Requirements: Clarifying functional vs. non-functional needs.
✅ Capacity Estimation: Calculating DAU, storage, and throughput.
✅ API Design: Creating RESTful endpoints for posts and follows.
✅ Data Modeling: Choosing between SQL, NoSQL, and Object Storage.
✅ HLD: Building the high-level architecture (Load Balancers, Caching, CDNs).
✅ LLD (The Deep Dive): Fan-out on Write vs. Fan-out on Read for Feed Generation.
Interview Tips: The "Gold Standard" closing line to show confidence.
