This course shows you how to build event-driven microservices with Spring Boot, Kafka, and Elastic. You learn each idea through clear steps and real examples. You work with small, focused services that you can build, run, and scale on their own.

Why Microservices

Microservices let you split a large app into smaller parts. You can update each part without touching the rest. You can also scale each service based on its load. For example, you can run more instances of a service that handles many requests.

Using Current Tools

You can use the latest Spring Boot, Spring Cloud, and other libraries in this course. Check the last section to see small updates you may need for new versions.

From Monolith to Events

A move from a monolith to microservices brings new challenges. You now work with a distributed system. You must handle network issues, data flow, and service failures.

You will learn how event-driven design helps with these issues. You use Apache Kafka to send events and store state.

What Event-Driven Design Gives You

  • You decouple services. They do not call each other directly.
  • You use async and non-blocking messages between services.
  • You keep state in Kafka, not inside each service. This makes scaling easier.

What You Will Build

You build a full microservice system from zero. You use Java, Spring Boot, Spring Cloud, Spring Security, Kafka, and Elasticsearch. You also learn event sourcing and event-driven flows with Kafka as the event store.

Patterns You Will Apply

  • External config with Spring Cloud Config
  • CQRS with Kafka and Elasticsearch
  • API versioning for REST endpoints
  • Service discovery with Spring Cloud and Netflix Eureka
  • API Gateway with Spring Cloud Gateway
  • Circuit breaker with Spring Cloud Gateway and Resilience4j
  • Rate limits with Spring Cloud Gateway and Redis
  • Distributed tracing with SLF4J MDC, Spring Cloud Sleuth, and Zipkin
  • Log aggregation with the ELK stack
  • Client‑side load balancing with Spring Cloud Load Balancer
  • Database per service
  • Kafka messaging between services

About the Author: Udemy

Udemy thumbnail

Udemy is the largest open marketplace for online courses on the internet. Founded in 2010 by Eren Bali, Oktay Caglar, and Gagan Biyani and headquartered in San Francisco, the company went public on the Nasdaq in 2021 under the ticker UDMY. The platform hosts well over two hundred thousand courses across software development, IT and cloud, data science, design, business, marketing, and creative skills, taught by tens of thousands of independent instructors. Roughly seventy million learners use it worldwide, and the corporate arm — Udemy Business — supplies a curated subset of that catalog to enterprise customers.

Because Udemy is a marketplace rather than a single editorial publisher, the catalog is uneven by design. The strongest material lives in the long-form, project-based courses authored by working engineers — full-stack JavaScript, React, Node.js, Python data science, AWS, Docker and Kubernetes, mobile development with Flutter and React Native, and cloud certification preparation. The CourseFlix listing under this source is the slice of that catalog that has been mirrored here for offline-friendly viewing, organized by topic and updated as new releases land. Pricing on Udemy itself swings dramatically with the site's near-permanent sales, which is why the platform is best treated as a deep reference catalog: pick instructors with strong reviews and a track record of updating their material rather than buying on the headline price alone.
