Spring Training

Spring Training: 

This Spring Boot training equips Java developers with hands-on skills in the Spring Framework, Microservices, and Spring Data JPA. Participants will learn to build scalable, production-ready applications while mastering modern backend development practices.

1. Who can attend the training

• Software developers familiar with Java basics.

• Students or professionals aiming to build enterprise-grade applications.

• Anyone interested in modern backend development with microservices architecture.

2. What students can learn from the training

• Core concepts of the Spring Framework (dependency injection, configuration, beans).

• Building and deploying Spring Boot applications quickly and efficiently.

• Designing and implementing Microservices with Spring Cloud.

• Working with Spring Data JPA for database access and persistence.

• Best practices for scalability, testing, and integration.

3. What students need to bring to class

• A laptop with Java (JDK 17 or above) installed.

• IDE (IntelliJ IDEA, Eclipse, or VS Code).

• Basic knowledge of Java programming.

• Enthusiasm to learn and experiment with real-world projects.
