Backend development with Vert.x

Over 5 hours of video content explaining how to build efficient and performant server side applications using Vert.x

Over 5 hours of video content explaining how to build efficient and performant server side applications using Vert.x

Vert.x is a toolkit and a library that helps you build reactive and highly concurrent backend services. It is built upon Netty, which is the defacto standard in building highly scalable applications on the JVM. Vert.x intersects performance and developer ergonomics into one amazing library.  Using this course to learn Vert.x will help you become a better backend developer all around as it will show you concepts at a more foundational level compared to using any other monolith server side framework such as Django or Rails

Even if you are not a Vert.x/backend/JVM developer - going through this course will level you up as a software developer

The course is bundled with a GitHub started project that you can clone and start coding right away [must have the JVM installed on your machine]

A few of the topics that are part of this course are:

• TCP Servers

• HTTP Servers

• CRUD API

• Event Bus

• Threading model and Event loops

• Futures, Callbacks, and Co-routines

• Web-sockets [Build a terminal chat app]

• Exposing Prometheus metrics

• Rate limiting your HTTP endpoints

• Communicating with PostgreSQL [transactions and listen/notify]

and much more!

This course covers both theory and practical code to help you visualize and internalize core Vert.x concepts. It is meant to give you confidence and skill in building your next server side api.
