Building a scalable content creation app
Hello everyone,
What are the skillset to build a scalable content creation app (Tiktok,Youtube etc). I have skills and experience in software engineering, building apps and content (Games). However I don't have much knowledge in distributed systems, load balancing and other backend server related topics.
Where do I start and what all I need to know in the following topics if I want to have 10 profiles, able to create upload videos and have connections between them.
Language used :
Database used :
Distributed system techniques :
Other skills ?
Feel free to add any other skill I might require, Currently I have no other person working with me. I want to build a prototype before I can hunt for a team.
Thanks for your help ! #engineering #software #swe #systemdesign #distributedsystem

If you just want a primer on the basics, I suggest reading designing data intensive applications by Martin Kleppman. Read the reference papers as well
