Distributed Systems Fundamentals Questions

Core theory that underpins any multi-node system: the CAP and PACELC theorems, consistency models (strong, causal, eventual), partitioning, replication, and the fundamental tradeoffs between latency, availability, and consistency. Covers how network partitions, clock skew, and partial failure change the reasoning compared to single-node systems. This is the vocabulary layer every distributed design question builds on.
