Do you think working on startup like this needs more experience or hands-on knowledge (i mean if you are just fresher then working under company which has more employees can teach you more but startup like this you have to learn by yourself alot) What’s your thoughts?
It was quite a journey for InterviewReady! Thank you for going live and interacting. I am a pre-final year student and your channel has helped me a lot with DSA. I might go ahead and buy InterviewReady for final year interviews (though it would be an overkill). But you deserve the support and more for putting out such great content!
Hey Gaurav, I have been following you for a while now and I love your energy levels, clarity on teaching and explaining concepts. The fact that you are being transparent about interviewReady design process speaks volumes. Consider me sold on the course. Keep at it! Kudos.
Hi Gaurav, it always feels good watching and listening to you. I really like your way of analysing different aspects of a system whether technical or non-technical. Please keep posting such videos
For analytics, you can just create a simple angular frontend on top of SQL . U can add data aggregate queries . You can also look for Dgraph if u want a lot of relations in your data . Dgraph is open source . Also, would u care to have some part of your project as open source like analytics frontend - backend . We will try to make something for u ...as a gift
I was gonna comment something similar, rather than investing on your own frontend you could look at using open source visualization tools like grafana which let you select ur sql datasource and directly set views there. For sales analytics there are specific tools such as hubspot that u can look at.
I'm just curious to know how much approx. money is spent each month in running this platform infrastructure excluding developer costs? It would be great if you create a general video on the expenses that occurred for you while developing this platform.
Just a suggestion (not criticism). If you improve ur voice quality that would be great bcz right now I really have to make extra efforts to understand what you are saying; not in terms of volume but the quality of speakers I guess
@@gkcs 1. Move to a self managed Postgres instance on EC2. And automate backups. 2. Start using reserved instances. (InterviewReady is going to be around for more than a year I guess). We could reserve an instance for 1-3 years. 3. If we scale, moving to Spot Instances for extra servers.
I actually enrolled for this course but at that time your user experience was pathetic (sorry) so i didn't even use it. Today i see this and checked the website again (thanks to life time free i guess), it looks way better. I hope i will use it now :)
Hey! I believe it is possible to start a startup from any tier city as it does not really matter as far as I am concerned (depends on your product or service) I would suggest signing up at Y Combinator and also consuming their content on RUclips to learn how to start a startup - All the best!
Thanks gaurav sir for mentioning me and glad to be part of your team 😃

Wish you all the best!!! You are great person I am sure that you will do everything that is needed!!
Thank you so much!
Congrats Gaurav.
I like the way you simplify Systems design. Wishing you good luck from Pakistan.
Thank you!
Love you for your honesty !!

Making parts of it open source is definitely what we'd like. But we have to reach some stability before we can do that :D

You are an inspiration to tons of software engineers out there to be an entrepreneur 💯
I am gonna purchase that course for sure. not today, not tomorrow. But surely will :)
Yey!
Congrats on your endeavour! :)

AWS. Approximately costs us $700. Thinkific cost us much lesser at around $350.
Best wishes Gaurav.. thanks for all the informative videos :)

Sure, I'll hook up a lapel mic next time. Have to figure out the way though 👍
Great. What tech stack are you using in frontend and backend?
We have Golang in the backend. The frontend is in vue.js and react.
@@gkcs Why Vue as well as React for frontend? Just wanted to know the pros and cons.
No real reason, our initial dev was comfortable with it. I can understand it, so it's there.
The new code is being written in React now.
Golang is defn interesting... And react is the best for frontend.👍
Awesome, we should start optimizing the AWS bills. 😛 Especially moving out of RDS soon. It's too expensive.
Agreed! Any ideas?

1. Move to a self managed Postgres instance on EC2. And automate backups.
2. Start using reserved instances. (InterviewReady is going to be around for more than a year I guess). We could reserve an instance for 1-3 years.

@@gkcs Reserved instances is a good start.

Do let us know how it goes, and thanks for your patience!
As always, up and rocking 🙏🙏
Good one GKCS
You always inspire me.
Hi Gaurav, If possible pls discuss about IRCTC system design and Share market sysyem design. It will be interesting.
Thanks,

Hey Gaurav I wanted to ask why didn't you use udemy. They have all the features you mentioned and a big brand so why not?
Commision. Part of the profits go to Udemy (from what I know). Also, you don't have full control over the platform.
Your videos are great, very interesting and informative. But a studio mic would save my ears 🥲
Can you do a video on class diagram and ER /data model design interview?
Does the platform leverage cloud services like AWS, GCP etc. If you could expand a little bit on that
We use AWS. EC2 instances and some lambda functions for processing. We use a Postgres database and S3 for storage.
@@gkcs can you share how much its costing you ? Is it monthly or yearly plan?
I don't have much knowledge on AWS
How to find good people to hire ? And what should be the terms, video on that next may be ?
By far the most pertinent question, and the one people think of the least when starting a company. We'll pick this up in the upcoming videos.
Good job
Gaurav NEVER stops drawing ... 😂😂😂😂
After so many videos I still don't know what GKCS abbreviation is 😅 anyway thanks for helping 😁
General Knowledge Counter... 😁
@@gkcs I was under the impression that GKCS is an abbreviation of your full name haha
Is it possible for an individual from tier 3 city to start a starup?
Isn't that against the law?

I am from Ukraine
The audio could be better.
there are still many bugs in site, Email verification isnt working now
Hey SK, could you share your email ID at contact@interviewready.io?
No option to pay in USD?
There is now 👍
You could have used a microphone while creating the video
