Distributed Systems Courses
Distributed systems courses can help you learn about network protocols, data consistency models, fault tolerance, and scalability challenges. You can build skills in designing distributed algorithms, managing resource allocation, and ensuring data integrity across nodes. Many courses introduce tools like Apache Kafka, Kubernetes, and Docker, that support deploying and managing distributed applications.
