Web Crawler System Design

Prepare to dive into a System Design Mock Interview modeled after real interview rounds at FAANG+ companies and other leading tech firms. In this session, you’ll design the architecture of a web crawler system, focusing on scalability, efficiency, and reliability. The interview simulates a real System Design round, challenging you to define, design, and discuss a platform capable of crawling and indexing vast amounts of web data while maintaining low latency and fault tolerance. Expect a blend of conceptual reasoning, detailed technical exploration, and scenario-based challenges.

What You'll Practice:

• Structuring and communicating end-to-end system architectures clearly.
• Designing scalable, fault-tolerant systems for web crawling, data ingestion, and storage.
• Applying System Design principles to API design, database selection, and concurrency handling.
• Creating clear, well-organized diagrams to illustrate architecture, data flow, and optimization strategies.
• Thinking critically about trade-offs in performance, consistency, and scalability under interview pressure.

By the end of this System Design Mock Interview, you’ll be ready to confidently approach system design interviews for high-complexity web platforms, demonstrating strong architectural thinking and problem-solving skills.
