This course features Coursera Coach!
A smarter way to learn with interactive, real-time conversations that help you test your knowledge, challenge assumptions, and deepen your understanding as you progress through the course. Dive deep into the principles of software architecture and the foundations of microservices. Gain practical skills to design scalable, maintainable systems by exploring various architectural patterns such as monolithic, modular monolithic, and microservices architectures. This course will equip you with the knowledge to make informed decisions when designing software systems and will give you the tools to handle challenges such as scalability, performance, and system complexity. The journey begins with an understanding of software architecture’s evolution, followed by a deep dive into domain-specific design and use cases, especially for e-commerce applications. The course progresses to more complex architecture models, where you will design, iterate, and evaluate systems using monolithic, layered, clean, and modular monolithic architectures. As the course progresses, you will also learn how to scale systems using vertical and horizontal scaling methods. The final section of the course covers microservices architecture, focusing on its principles, benefits, and when to use it. You’ll learn to break down applications into independent services and gain hands-on experience designing scalable solutions. This course is ideal for developers and software architects looking to enhance their skills in modern software architecture. It’s suited for individuals with a basic understanding of software development and those looking to expand their knowledge of scalable and maintainable system designs.
