Build Backend Systems That Actually LastBackend development isn't what it used to be.
Today's applications must handle scale, speed, cloud environments, real-time data, and constant change - all without breaking under pressure.
Modern Backend Engineering with Spring Boot 4 is a practical guide for developers who want to build systems that are not just functional... but truly production-ready.
This book goes beyond simple tutorials and shows you how modern backend systems are designed in the real world - from scalable APIs to resilient cloud-native services.
Instead of overwhelming theory, you'll learn how to think like a modern backend engineer and build applications that can grow, adapt, and survive real operational demands.
