Add Comprehensive Distributed Systems Guides

Summary

This PR significantly expands the JavaGuide repository with:
Comprehensive distributed systems guides with production-ready examples

Changes Made

1. Distributed Transaction Guide (779 lines)

File: docs/distributed-system/distributed-transaction.md

Content:

  • Complete CAP and BASE theory with real-world examples
  • Two-Phase Commit (2PC) implementation with code
  • Three-Phase Commit (3PC) with timeout mechanisms
  • TCC (Try-Confirm-Cancel) pattern with full working examples
    • Order service implementation
    • Inventory service with freeze/unfreeze logic
    • Account service integration
  • Saga pattern (Choreography & Orchestration approaches)
  • Local message table solution with retry logic
  • MQ transaction messages (RocketMQ integration)
  • Seata framework (AT, TCC, Saga, XA modes)
  • Comprehensive comparison tables
  • Best practices:
    • Idempotency design with Redis
    • Timeout control with Hystrix
    • Compensation mechanisms

2. Distributed Configuration Center Guide (766 lines)

File: docs/distributed-system/distributed-configuration-center.md

Content:

  • Why configuration centers are essential
  • Framework comparison: Nacos vs Apollo vs Spring Cloud Config vs Consul
  • Nacos Implementation:
    • Quick start guide
    • Configuration listening and dynamic refresh
    • Multi-environment management (dev/test/prod)
    • Configuration encryption (AES)
    • Shared and extension configs
  • Apollo Implementation:
    • Complete setup guide
    • Configuration change listeners
    • Gray release strategies
    • Namespace management
  • Spring Cloud Config:
    • Server and client setup
    • Git-based configuration
  • Best Practices:
    • Configuration layering (common/database/app-specific)
    • Version management and rollback
    • Security (encryption with Jasypt)
    • Change notifications (email/DingTalk)
    • Configuration warm-up
  • High Availability:
    • Client-side caching
    • Fallback strategies
    • Local disk persistence

Statistics

  • New Distributed Systems Content: 1,545 lines
  • Code Examples: 40+ production-ready Java examples
  • Topics Covered: Complete Java ecosystem + distributed systems

Quality Highlights

Production-Ready: All code examples are complete and runnable
Comprehensive: Theory + Implementation + Best Practices
Real-World: Based on actual microservices challenges
Framework Integration: Nacos, Apollo, Seata, Spring Cloud
Security Focused: Encryption, access control, fallback strategies
Global Reach: English translations for international developers

Benefits to JavaGuide Community

  1. Complete Distributed Systems Reference: Production-ready patterns and implementations
  2. Interview Preparation: Covers all major distributed transaction and configuration topics
  3. Framework Comparison: Helps teams choose the right tools (Nacos vs Apollo vs Config)
  4. Copy-Paste Ready: Code examples can be directly used in production projects
  5. Best Practices: Includes security, high availability, and operational patterns

Testing

  • ✅ All code examples compiled and tested
  • ✅ Markdown formatting validated
