14 Hours
Skill IQ

Microservices Architecture represents a modern approach to building distributed systems where applications are structured as independent, deployable services. This program teaches you to design and implement scalable systems that can evolve independently, enabling teams to develop, deploy, and maintain services autonomously.

You'll learn to create resilient service architectures, implement effective communication patterns, and manage distributed data. The program covers essential aspects including service discovery, load balancing, fault tolerance, and monitoring, providing you with practical experience in building and maintaining distributed systems that can scale effectively.
