Spring Boot & REST APIs
Build the backend a company would actually deploy — not another CRUD tutorial
- Fee
- ₹4,500
- Duration
- 30 guided hours
- Level
- Core
- Mode
- Online / Offline
Designed for
- Developers who know Java and SQL and want backend depth
- Freshers targeting Java backend roles at service companies and GCCs
- Working developers who use Spring Boot but have never learned it properly
Course curriculum
8 progressive modules
Duration: 30 guided hours
- Foundation
- Intermediate
- Advanced
FoundationSessions 1–2
The container, and why Spring exists
- Inversion of control, and the problem it actually solves
- Beans, scopes and the bean lifecycle
- Constructor injection and why field injection is discouraged
- Component scanning, configuration classes and conditional beans
- Profiles for local, test and production
- Auto-configuration and starters — what Boot is doing on your behalf
What you will build
A service wired three ways — by hand, by field injection and by constructor injection — with the failure modes of the first two demonstrated rather than described.

Learning outcomes
What you will be able to do
- 01Explain what Spring's container does for you and what it does not
- 02Design REST endpoints whose status codes and methods follow HTTP rather than habit
- 03Separate the API from the schema with DTOs and defend the boundary
- 04Return one machine-readable error shape across an entire service
View all 8 learning outcomes
- Map a relational model with JPA and diagnose N+1 from the SQL log
- Write migrations that make the schema reproducible on any machine
- Test a service against a real database in a container
- Publish an OpenAPI document another team can build against

Detailed course information
Full course brief
Most Spring Boot courses stop where the tutorial stops: an entity, a repository, a controller, and a JSON response. The gap employers complain about starts immediately after that — an API that returns 200 for a failure, an entity serialised straight onto the wire, and a query that quietly issues four hundred statements.
This course is built around those failures. You reproduce each one, measure it, then fix it and argue the trade-off.
What makes this different
The database is real. Tests run against PostgreSQL in a container rather than an in-memory substitute, because the bugs worth catching are the ones H2 hides — migrations that do not apply, dialect differences, and locking behaviour.
Who this is for
You need working Java and enough SQL to write a join. If you have neither, Core Java Programming comes first.
Where it leads
This is the backend half of Full-Stack Developer — Java and the second group of Backend Developer — Java.
