Course Modules

This Spring Framework Specialization covers modules on Spring Ecosystem and Core, Spring MVC, Spring Boot, Rest Controllers, Spring Data Repositories, and Spring Cloud Overview. Students will gain hands-on experience in building extensive applications, developing restful microservices, and implementing cloud-based microservice architectures.

Spring - Ecosystem and Core

In the Spring - Ecosystem and Core module, students will delve into the dominant Java development framework, understanding Java Object Dependency Injection, various forms of configuration data, and enhancing configurations with Expression Languages and Conditional Beans. Through a series of hands-on labs, students will build extensive applications iteratively, gaining practical experience in building and configuring Java applications.

Spring MVC, Spring Boot and Rest Controllers

The Spring MVC, Spring Boot, and Rest Controllers module focuses on developing Java-based web applications and restful microservices using Spring MVC and Spring Boot frameworks. Students will learn to develop services through various URL templates, consume and respond with JSON or XML payloads, and create custom HTTP headers. Hands-on labs will illustrate the key concepts of building web applications and restful microservices.

Spring Data Repositories

The Spring Data Repositories module provides students with an in-depth understanding of how Java interacts with databases in a modern framework. Using the Spring Boot framework with microservices, students will learn to abstract away Java Persistence Framework (JPA) using Spring Data Repositories and expose repositories as REST web services. Additionally, students will cover Spring Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) and Spring Transaction Managers, gaining practical experience in applying cross-cutting concerns and transaction configuration.

Spring - Cloud Overview

The Spring - Cloud Overview module explains high-level patterns used in microservice architectures and the motivation to move towards these architectures. Students will implement these patterns using Spring Cloud, specifically focusing on Service Registration, Service Discovery, Client-Side Load Balancing, Circuit Breakers, and Gateway or Edge Services in a Spring Boot setting. Hands-on labs will target projects Eureka, Ribbon, Hystrix, Feign, and Zuul, providing practical experience in implementing cloud-based microservice architectures.
