37. Reservation with a TTL, and a Unique Constraint
Scarce inventory — a seat, a room, the last unit — with far more buyers than units. Holding a database row for the minutes someone takes to pay does not scale, and checking availability before writing is a race that sells the same seat twice.
Product & backendMedium48. Design a Ticket Booking System like Ticketmaster
Hold seats with one conditional write, pay by authorize and capture, and put ten million fans in a fair waiting room without selling a seat twice.
ClassicMedium87. Design a Hotel Booking System like Airbnb
Nights as counted inventory, holds that never double-book, search that knows availability, and payments that reconcile.
ClassicMedium90. Design a Book Seller Aggregator Platform
Buy the cheapest offer under a maximum price from 1,000 sellers: cached offers, coalesced quotes, a hold-order-capture saga, open requests.
ClassicMedium96. Design a Food Delivery App like Uber Eats
Find restaurants that deliver to you, check out without double charges, time couriers to the kitchen and track them live.
