Deploy Spring Boot services to AWS ECS Fargate with AWS CDK

Unlock the power of cloud computing with this comprehensive course on building scalable microservices on AWS using Java 21, Spring Boot V3, and Docker. You'll gain hands-on experience creating a robust backend application that interacts seamlessly with a wide range of AWS services.

Key Technologies Covered:

• Java 21 & Spring Boot V3: Master modern Java development with annotations, controllers, services, and more using the powerful Spring Boot framework.
• Docker & Containerization: Package your microservices in Docker containers for consistent and portable deployments.
• AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK) V2: Learn Infrastructure as Code (IaC) with AWS CDK, a modern and efficient way to define and provision your AWS infrastructure using Java. Ideal for DevOps professionals.
• AWS SDK V2 for Java: Utilize the official AWS SDK to interact with AWS services in a clean and efficient manner, fully integrated with Spring Boot V3 and JDK 21.

Core AWS Services You'll Master:

• AWS ECS (Elastic Container Service) & Fargate: Orchestrate and manage your Docker containers with AWS ECS. Leverage Fargate for serverless container compute, eliminating the need for EC2 instances and reducing costs.
• AWS ECR (Elastic Container Registry): Securely store and manage your Docker container images in a private registry.
• AWS VPC (Virtual Private Cloud): Build a secure and isolated network environment with private subnets and robust network security policies.
• AWS ALB (Application Load Balancer): Distribute incoming HTTP traffic across multiple application instances, ensuring high availability and performance.
• AWS API Gateway REST: Secure and manage your REST APIs, including request validation and query string parameter handling.
• CloudWatch Logs: Centralize and monitor application logs and metrics using CloudWatch Logs in JSON format, enabling powerful querying with CloudWatch Logs Insights.
• CloudWatch Alarms: Proactively monitor your applications and AWS resources for abnormal behavior and trigger alerts.
• CloudWatch Container Insights: Aggregate monitoring data from your AWS ECS applications, including logs, for deeper insights.
• DynamoDB: Utilize DynamoDB, a fully managed NoSQL database, with the DynamoDB enhanced client from the AWS SDK V2 for Java.
• SQS (Simple Queue Service): Implement asynchronous communication between applications using SQS for reliable message queuing.
• SNS (Simple Notification Service): Publish and subscribe to messages using SNS topics for event-driven architectures.
• S3 (Simple Storage Service): Store files securely and scalably with S3, benefiting from automatic notifications on file uploads.
• AWS X-Ray: Analyze and debug distributed applications with AWS X-Ray.
• IAM (Identity and Access Management): Manage user and service permissions with IAM for secure access to AWS resources.
• AWS Cost Explorer: Track and analyze your AWS costs with detailed cost breakdowns by resource type and tags.
