Nearest Cab - Uber System Design
Update: 2026-01-15
Description
Nearest cab is a system design podcast where two senior engineers break down how ride-hailing platforms like Uber are built—and the tradeoffs behind every decision.
We discuss real-time matching, geo-indexing, dispatch algorithms, pricing, reliability, and scalability under extreme load. Each episode focuses on practical design choices, constraints, and failure scenarios drawn from real production systems.
No hype, no theory dumps—just clear conversations about building large-scale, real-time systems.
