Happy holidays everyone! I wrote a blog post after 4 years (primarily for my own amusement):   https://deepakvadgama.com/blog/2023-highlights/

Update on the channel: 

TL;DR: New video series on NoSQL coming in December & I'm switching jobs. 

Sorry about not being able to post new videos for last 2 years. I was tied up with my work at Gojek, the pandemic didnt help, and last few months I was tied up with interviews (happy to share that I am joining Google starting tomorrow).

I am planning to start with NoSQL series with multiple videos in December (the content is ready, I need to structure it and record). I might expand this to distributed databases course (covering NewSQL). 
 
I have been researching a lot on distributed systems as part of my interview preparation. In 2022, I will mainly focus on system design instead of Java. To keep this channel sustainable, I am planning to create memberships/courses. Hoping to get enough support to make it a full-time career.  

Thanks a lot for your patience & support so far. Please keep pushing me for more content!

Quick poll: If this channel starts offering paid memberships with exclusive content/videos for topics like Microservices, NoSQL, Cloud, System Design and GoLang, would you be interested? 


I want to create videos full-time, and your responses will help me understand if it is sustainable. Thank you!


PS: I am creating a playlist for NoSQL, will start recording soon. Hang tight! 

Interested in 150 INR or $5 per month, member only videos/content

Interested in 1999 INR or $25 per month for full courses

I will stick to free videos, thanks!
