This course will enable you to harness and master the powerful app-creation opportunities that come with Spring Boot's great configuration and flexibility. You will use Spring Boot with its configuration mechanism and will learn how to provide default configurations. Then you will use more advanced techniques to manage the Spring Boot applications in production.

In this course, you will learn to speed up development with microservices on Java Virtual Machines (JVMs) with Spring Boot and Spring Cloud. You will build and deploy your microservice architectures in the cloud. Then you will add more advanced Micrometer metrics, create declarative metrics, and develop and test high-performance, reactive, non-blocking applications with Spring Boot.

By the end of this course, you will have the confidence to take on any challenge, build useful applications, and develop high-performance, reactive, non-blocking applications—all with Spring Boot 2.x.
