There is 1 module in this course

In this course, you’ll dive into Spring WebFlux to build non-blocking, reactive REST APIs that stay lightning-fast under heavy load. Through hands-on labs with Project Reactor, functional routing, WebClient, and Reactive MongoDB, you’ll stream real-time data, debug blocking calls, and optimize backpressure for cloud-scale microservices. You’ll also apply best-practice reactive patterns to craft resilient and production-ready backends that power modern and event-driven applications.
