What you'll learn

Managing payouts in distributed systems is challenging—failures, retries, and concurrency issues can lead to duplicated payments, data inconsistency, and lack of traceability. In this course, Microservices: Developing Reactive Systems, you’ll learn to build a resilient, event-driven payout system using reactive microservices. First, you’ll explore how to build fault-tolerant services with retries, circuit breakers, and backpressure using Spring WebFlux. Next, you’ll discover how to implement idempotent APIs to prevent duplicate transactions. Finally, you’ll learn how to handle distributed transactions with event-driven workflows and apply event sourcing for complete auditability. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and confidence to design and build robust, reactive microservices that are scalable, consistent, and ready for real-world demands.
