System Design Thinking 1

Описание: System Design Thinking 1

Most system design videos show you boxes and arrows. This one shows you how architects actually think — with real numbers, real trade-offs, and real stakeholder arguments from Philippine banking and enterprise systems.

I'm Jeril Thomas, Solutions Architect at Ascendion Philippines with 15+ years building systems for Metrobank, BPI, GCash integrations, and government platforms covering 25 million land title certificates. This masterclass is the video I wish existed when I was becoming an architect.

⏱ WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN 60 MINUTES
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

✅ The Six Pillars Framework — Security, Performance, Reliability, Cost, Sustainability, Operations — and how to apply them simultaneously to every design decision
✅ Philippine Super App Architecture — how GCash, Maya, Metrobank Online are actually built. Mini App platforms, Core Financial Kernels, BSP Circular 982 compliance in real code
✅ Kafka vs SQS vs RabbitMQ — not just comparison, but how to argue for the right choice in front of a skeptical CTO with numbers and benchmark data
✅ Disaster Recovery Engineering — RTO/RPO math, Active-Active vs Active-Passive architectures, why the cost argument for Active-Active is often decisive
✅ Chaos Engineering in Production — how to find your architecture's failure points before a real incident does, using AWS FIS and Gremlin
✅ Real-Time Fraud Detection Architecture — processing 50,000 transactions per minute with sub-200ms ML inference using Feature Stores, Kafka, and SageMaker
✅ Stakeholder Persuasion Techniques — how to defeat bad technical decisions using business impact analysis, not just technical arguments. Real scenarios with scripted responses.
✅ Architecture Decision Records — the one document every architect should be writing but most aren't
