Why no design videos these days?? What happend?
Just in case someone is still confused when to use column based DBs here's a little explaination: Consider a database which has a large volume of data with 100 columns. And your application most of the time just queries only a few columns (let’s say 4-5 columns). Then in case of document DBs or row based DBs (relational Dbs) all data will be loaded row by row in main memory for processing , parsing and other operations. It will be a waste of a lot of effort in loading and processing of unnecessary columns. Column based DBs are used to tackle this problem where a large amount of data is stored in column based fashion so that the application can query only a few columns of large volume of data. - reference: Designing Data-Intensive Applications. by Martin Kleppmann.

But you can also do the same thing in RDBMS. you can easily right a query to get only few columns in the result
WOW. Watched so many videos and finally found the gold content. No flashy animations and funky music. Just old school 1-1 explaining with clarity, examples and strong fundamentals. Beauty of online education.
This has been the most useful 23 mins of System Designs Learning I've come across yet. And this is after I took an 11 hour course... you put it all together for me so much more succinctly. Thank you!!

He's amazing
I had been struggling with starting Databases to build my conceptual knowledge and this is amazing for everyone. Thanks a lot for sharing this in the most simplistic way.
As someone with only monolithic embedded systems experience, this is hands down the only resource on the internet that made sense to me in this domain. Heartfelt thanks!
this video is an absolute gem. Finally someone that breaks this down directly without dancing around the topic
Thanks for creating such an insightful video. There are few things that I would suggest adding to all the important points that you have mentioned: 1> Write Heavy vs Read Heavy systems is also an important point to consider for database selection. We cannot write scale RDBMS (as generally in RDBMS the write is on the single primary instance). For DocumentDB, we need sharding to write scale it which can be done but are not so natural as it is in ColumnarDB like Cassandra where we need to mandatorily choose the partition key during the data modelling itself. So for write heavy systems I prefer to go with Cassandra if I don't need ACID. For write heavy systems that need ACID we should choose RDBMS with multi master configuration and for that application needs to take care of bifurcating the data to the appropriate master based on the decided key. 2> Graph database for mapping social network type of data.

Those who prefer AWS Managed Services. Here, is the list Blob Storage : AWS S3 Caching : AWS ElasticCache Full Text Searching : AWS ElasticSearch Time Series Database : AWS TimeStream Analytical Databases : AWS Redshift ( It depends, sometimes we can use AWS S3 for storing large csv files and then we can use AWS ElasticMapReduce(EMR) to process S3 Files) RDMS (Relational Databse) : AWS Aurora Document Database : AWS DynamoDB Columnar Database : Not sure, I think AWS DynamoDB will satisfy this requirement too.

I don't know why people are buying gold when by just watching this video you can be rich! Sincere gratitude to you Sandeep!
The clear explanation/flowchart at the end for choosing SQL vs document vs columnar was GOLD
This was just what I needed, gem of a video. Thanks!
This is one of the best explanation on choosing db....
Your videos are very simple to understand. I would like to thank you for explaining the FR and non-FR for each system design consideration. That sets the expectation very well.
This channel should really have lot of subscribers. This is the first channel where I found so much detailed explanation on system design. Thanks a lot.
Best video I have watched which summarizes it so simply. The best part of this is he explains it by taking examples of products such as Amazon, Netflix etc.
No words to say..the way you've cleared everything.... You should be on KZread long time before.
THANKS A TON for making things amazingly simple to understand. Great stuff indeed! I have watched all your videos on system design, they are so nicely presented and organised. Awaiting the next videos.
Your videos are a life saver for me. I have recently joined an organisation as senior developer and i have been given few system design tasks. And going through your videos is enabling me to understand the intricacies of the system design.
This man needs at least 100K subs. Love this content, extremely concise and informative, I have subbed!
Reading this a day before on-site interviews. I am much more confident on the database selection justification :). Thank you
One of the best System Design videos series on KZread. Keep up the good work!
Cool and crisp details relevant to the topic. Very few people are gifted with the skill to share the knowledge and also create an impact. I came across this channel and now I'll be watching the whole series in coming days.
Awesome !! That's exactly what we require in a DB design rounds , in more depth though , but this was a very good intro in that direction
literally no words i was struggling to find a perfect video which explains in every possible perception (user, developer, maintainer) this made all the doubts cleared ... thank you
Best video tutorial available on the internet for choosing between databases for designing systems. Period

Thank you Karle, you have solved my mysterious about databases that has been going thru my head for many years.
Excellent video talking about key considerations in choosing the "right" DB/ data store. Sincere thanks for your efforts!
Thanks for the video. It's worth stressing on is the consistency aspect of databases. RDBMS's provide strong consistency, whereas a NoSQL like Casandra provides eventual consistency, but higher availability owing to its masterless model, and thus lack of a single point of failure. HBase, on the other hand, is a single-leader system with a single-point of failure.
Your videos are pure gold!! Hands down the best system design tutor!!! Thanks a lot!
Such an amazing video! I am glad I came across your channel. This is very informative and you have a knack for explaining things well! Keep up the good work :)
This is the best video on this topic on KZread. This is a confusing topic but you explained in so simple and elegant way. Thankyou! for making this video.
I have always wished for a video like this! Since, I am non-CS background, I am a bit oblivious to the world of DB products out there. I had always heard many of these names, but only as lingo - never really understood why they were being mentioned in the context. Thank you for putting this together, I will now probably understand more future such discussions in life :D
I like the way you present.. you look like a humble human being with lots of knowledge and work experience... please continue your good work..
Amazing explanation of various databases at a breadth. Candid for quick brush up. Thanks
This video is exactly what I wanted for quick revision. Thank you so much
I could binge watch your videos forever. such an informative videos
Really informative. Loved it, coming out burnt from GKCS, that guy always leaves me confused for some reason. This channel is must recommended.

What an amazing explanation for choosing databases. Kudos to you man.
I'm only 4 minutes in and I've already learned a lot! Keep it up!
Wow !!! What clarity in explaining Database use cases, scenerios, categories of database with pictorial representation. The way you explained the concept is quite impressive. The way you corelate the concept with example is best fit. Keep the good work. May your light shine upon people like me the beneficiary. Thanks.
Well explained and informative. works well as a cheat sheet with clear overview, leaving to us to get in depth wherever needed.
You have great communication ability and explain things crisply. Thank you.

Oh my God! I didn't know this kind of content is also available on the net and that too is free with so many details explained beautifully and concisely. Subscribed and gonna share it with others. Thanks again for putting so much effort for the learners like us.
Good explanation of document DB, you are the first who made me understand the use case!
I was happy after going through the video. Just one short and clear.
This is awesome, I am amazed that everything you share has so much detail and thought.
Wow! This explanation is so lucid and logical, yet concise. Summarizing things this well should be considered an art form!
Seedhi Baat.. No Bakwaas.. Excellent short cheat sheet video for choosing right DB.
This is a very good video, something no one has done. So many terms I hear on a day to day basis but didn't know, are clear now.
Really an awesome video. After seeing your one design video, I am on system design spree as if I want to finish the Netflix series. Every sentence you speak make to note it down in my notes. Thanks for all of it. One last thing, please whenever you time, keep the momentum of your system design input through videos.
You have just fulfilled my all queries for interviews.
Love you brother. This video is so much informative. 1 video talks about so many solutions.
Awesome content dude. I ensure I watch all the ads during the video and click on all of them because I don't know how else I can give back to you for the invaluable knowledge you share with us!

This is a perfect learning video, thank you. I found it very useful how you associated real world examples with type of db. Info about use of combination of database is also lot of helpful understanding how real world system might be using them.
I had a lot of confusions on this, Thank You So Much!
This is gem!! Thanks for such amazing content.
awesome, the video gets to the heart of the matter and doesn't go around.
Really amazing playlist. I wonder why you don't have subscribers in lakhs. I have a final interview for SDE-I at a unicorn startup in 4 days and this is a life saver.

OMG, I didn't know shit about no-SQL and just with this video I think I can propose the adequate database type in an exercise. Amazing, specially loved the way to combine databases. Thank you so much.
Best content on this topic! Thank you so much for your efforts!
Great Man! Nice way of explaining. Kudos to your thoughts!
The intro part in which you used the explanation of functional and non-functional requirements made me like the video and comment here.
Amazing video, one feedback, please keep it at the top of the series, before the beginning of the design discussion of other systems.
Amazing video, very professional and well described !
Thanks for making this review! I enjoyed it.
