• Understand and implement OAuth 2.0
• OpenID Connect
• and JWT for secure authentication
• Integrate and configure identity providers like Auth0 in real-world applications
• Secure REST APIs using Spring Security with roles
• permissions
• and filters
• Apply rate limiting using Bucket4j to protect endpoints from abuse and overload
• Use Resilience4j to implement circuit breaker
• retry
• and time limiter patterns
• Design fault-tolerant microservices that gracefully handle service failures
• Isolate system failures with bulkhead patterns for enhanced service stability
• Build and configure API Gateways using Spring Cloud Gateway
• Implement load balancing strategies with Spring Cloud LoadBalancer
• Monitor and manage application health using Spring Boot Actuator
• Secure your application with HTTPS
• TLS configuration
• and property-based setup
• Structure scalable Spring Boot projects with production-level best practices
• Customize Spring Security authentication flows and login/logout handling
• Configure Spring Boot applications with environment-specific properties
• Understand architectural patterns for building secure
• robust
• and scalable systems

Requirements

• Basic knowledge of Java programming
• Familiarity with object-oriented programming concepts
• Some experience working with Spring Framework (recommended but can be learned during the course too)
• Understanding of RESTful APIs and HTTP fundamentals
• Basic knowledge of Maven or Gradle build tools
• Comfortable using an IDE like IntelliJ IDEA or Eclipse
• No prior experience with Resilience4j
• Auth0
• or OAuth2 required – all will be explained in the course

Description

Modern backend development is no longer just about writing business logic. Today’s systems must survive failures, scale under pressure, and protect sensitive data from constant threats. Whether you’re building APIs, microservices, or distributed systems – your architecture must be secure, fault-tolerant, and production-ready.

This course is built for backend developers who are serious about writing robust, secure, and scalable code with Spring Boot. You will not only learn how to implement security features but also why they matter – and how they keep real-world systems alive.

All implementations are in Java with Spring Boot, but the design principles apply to any backend language or framework.

What You’ll Learn:

• Secure Authentication & Authorization

  • OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, and JWT in practice

  • Identity Providers with Auth0 integration

  • Spring Security configuration for real applications

• Resilience Patterns with Resilience4j

  • Circuit Breakers to prevent cascading failures

  • Retry logic to recover from transient faults

  • Time Limiter and Rate Limiter to maintain system stability

  • Bulkhead pattern to isolate failures and contain damage

• API Protection and Scalability

  • Bucket4j and Resilience4j rate limiting

  • API Gateway pattern with Spring Cloud Gateway

  • Load balancing strategies using Spring Cloud LoadBalancer

• Spring Boot Monitoring & Configuration

  • Spring Boot Actuator for live metrics and health checks

  • Application properties for environment-specific configurations

  • Custom TLS, context paths, and logging levels

Why This Course Is Different:

Most tutorials focus only on basic CRUD operations or toy examples. This course is focused on real production challenges and resilient system design. You’ll understand how to:

• Think like a software architect when building secure services

• Prevent abuse, mitigate downtime, and gracefully handle system overload

• Write code that’s ready for deployment in modern distributed systems

Everything is supported with live coding sessions, practical exercises, and realistic examples that mirror the issues you’ll face on the job.

Who This Course Is For:

• Java backend developers ready to move beyond basic applications

• Engineers who want to master Spring Boot, Spring Security, and cloud-native resilience patterns

• Architects and senior developers who care about system reliability, security, and performance

• Backend engineers in other languages who want to understand universal patterns for scalable and secure system design

Two Annex Sections Included

If you’re new to Spring Boot or Spring Security, you won’t be left behind. You’ll get two focused sections that teach you the fundamentals of each – before diving into the advanced material.

By the end of this course, you will be able to design, build, and deploy systems that are secure by default, resilient to failure, and ready to scale.

Invest in your skills today. This is the course that will elevate your backend engineering to a new level.
