Build Scalable Java Backend Systems with Spring Boot, Micros

Master professional Java backend development by building a complete real-world application from scratch. In this course, you will create BookHub, a production-ready backend system while learning the entire free improving software development productivity course lifecycle (SDLC), from planning and design to testing, deployment, and maintenance.

You will start by understanding how professional software projects are planned and structured before setting up a Spring Boot application using clean architecture principles. As the course progresses, you will build REST APIs, integrate PostgreSQL with Spring Data JPA and Hibernate, and design efficient database relationships and queries.

You will learn how to secure your application using Spring Security, implement authentication and authorization, and manage user roles and permissions. To improve performance, you will integrate Redis caching and explore strategies for handling data efficiently. You will also implement asynchronous communication using Apache Kafka and understand event-driven architecture.

The course goes beyond traditional backend development by introducing Docker containerization, CI/CD concepts, automated testing with JUnit and Mockito, integration testing, debugging techniques, and monitoring strategies.

You will also explore modern distributed systems using Spring Cloud, including Config Server, Eureka Service Discovery, and API Gateway.

By the end of this course, you will have built a complete enterprise-style Java backend application and gained practical skills used by professional backend engineers to develop scalable, secure, maintainable, and production-ready applications.
