Modern software rarely runs on a single core anymore – from AI model training to real-time analytics, everything leans on parallel execution. This course walks you through the mechanics of concurrency, distributed task handling, and performance tuning using industry-standard tools. By the end, you’ll be equipped to design, debug, and scale applications that make full use of multi-core and multi-node hardware.
