Course Overview
This five-day course provides an in-depth introduction to microservices architecture and application development using Spring Boot, Spring Cloud and Docker. It covers microservices fundamentals, architectural principles, RESTful services, service communication, and distributed application development.
Participants will explore Spring Cloud capabilities for service discovery, client-side load balancing, circuit breakers and API gateway implementation. The course also covers monitoring and distributed tracing using Prometheus, Grafana, Sleuth and Zipkin, along with Kafka integration. The final module introduces Docker containerization, image creation, deployment and application scaling for Spring Boot-based microservices.
