Cs grad (fresher) from tier 3 college, got a role at a reputed hft but not so good, want to switch to a system engineer role in about 1.5-2 yrs but couldn't decide if they prefer iit grads. If there is a chance then what's the best material available online. Also have experience of backend engineering. Prev posted to systems engineering sub, was told this sub is better for the above query

If you are interested in low latency network system, RDMA and RoCE would be valuable for you.

Did you hear about ipv6? I heard it's the future and superfast!

I'd say try Ethernet. WiFi tends to be higher latency.

The less drag the higher the speed.

Smart to focus on low latency. I've worked as a high latency engineer, and while the stakes were lower, so was the pay.
