Microservices Masterclass
Course Info
This course includes 5 attempts.
Hi, I'm Dave Farley. If you've watched any of my YouTube videos, particularly those on the topic of microservices, you know that I care deeply about building high quality software.
Microservices are a great approach for building software at scale. But although the ideas at the root of microservices may sound simple, this is not a simple approach. There are several big traps along the way, and it's important to avoid them if you want to gain the benefits of a microservices approach.
In this microservices masterclass, to help you to avoid some of these traps, we've curated some of my most important free videos, along with key segments from my engineering room interviews, and lots of other material to guide your learning. We've structured all of this into a proper training course. You'll find clear learning objectives, helpful introductions, transcripts, key takeaways, exercises, quizzes, and you can earn a certificate at the end if you get all the way through.
If you're an executive or a team lead, this course will help you to make better decisions and to avoid some of those commonest of mistakes.
If you're a developer, I'll give you the clarity and context to build smarter systems from the beginning, and so guide you on your path towards better outcomes.
If you're an architect, our course will sharpen your thinking and reinforce the principles that matter the most in the real world of building complex distributed software that are at the heart of microservices.
While much of this content is freely available, scattered across hundreds of videos on my YouTube channel, this course pulls it together into a more coherent whole and transforms it into a more focused journey, offering a structured learning experience designed to help you to move from passive watching to active mastery.
I hope that you enjoy it, and I hope that you find it helpful in your future endeavors. Enjoy the course.
