Syllabus

WEEK 1
Spring Framework Introduction
In the introduction, we will tell you who this course is for and what modules it consists of. The main purpose of this module is to guide you on the topic of whether our course will be of interest to you, and to explain what tools you will need to complete it successfully.

WEEK 2
Spring Core
In this module, we will cover the fundamental concepts of Spring Core: Dependency Injection(DI) and Inversion of Control (IoC). Consider the concept of Bean and his life cycle. Also we will try to develop a simple Spring Core application with Maven.

WEEK 3
Spring MVC
In this module, we will take a closer look at the Model-View-Controller pattern. We will try to understand how Spring Framework supports the this pattern. We will discuss each of part this pattern: Model, Controller and View. Also we will found best practices for writing classes with the Spring MVC framework.

WEEK 4
Spring DATA
In this module, we will look at the Java Persistence API and Hibernate, will learn how to implement the CRUD paradigm in our application, and will explore the basic PostgreSQL data storage and management capabilities.

WEEK 5
Spring REST
In this module, we will cover the fundamental concepts of implement Web services using Spring REST framework.
We will cover the concept of implementing web services that conform to the REST architectural style. We will build a service that accept HTTP GET, PUT, POST and DELETE requests and respond with a JSON representation of a greeting.

Data Structures and Performance (Coursera)

How do Java programs deal with vast quantities of data? Many of the data structures and algorithms that work with introductory toy examples break when applications process real, large data sets. Efficiency is critical, but how do we achieve it, and how do we even measure it? This is an intermediate Java course. We recommend this course to learners who have previous experience in software development or a background in computer science, and in particular, we recommend that you have taken the first course in this specialization (which also requires some previous experience with Java).
