Show notes

CAP stands for Consistency, Availability, and Partition tolerance. Understanding the CAP theorem can help engineers make better design choices when building distributed systems. In this show, I will explain the CAP theorem and how you can use it to make tradeoffs in your backend design. You probably already are using the CAP theorem without even knowing.
