🌱 Spring Batch Mastery Course

Are you ready to embark on a comprehensive learning journey with Kiryl Yesipau as your guide through the intricacies of the Spring Batch Framework? This course is meticulously crafted into four levels of difficulty – beginner, intermediate, advanced, and expert. Each level builds upon the last, ensuring a solid foundation before tackling more complex concepts. With complete source code provided for all examples, you'll be able to run and experiment with applications directly on your machine.

🔓 Beginner Level: Laying the Groundwork

• 🚀 For those just starting out with Spring Batch, this chapter introduces the core concepts of jobs, steps, readers, processors, and writers. You'll work with files in both plain text format and XML to process data, and by the end of this level, you'll have built and executed a command line application analyzing temperature sensors data.
• 🔸 Cover the essential framework concepts.
• 🔸 Build and execute your first Spring Batch application.
• 🔸 Process data with files in plain text format and XML.

🧠 Intermediate Level: Deep Dive into Chunk-Oriented Processing

• 🔍 Expand your understanding of Spring Batch's chunk-oriented processing by diving deep into the concepts of JobInstance, JobExecution, StepExecution, and ExecutionContext. This chapter explores the intricacies of restartability, reusing ExecutionContext in success and failure scenarios, and utilizing various settings such as saveState, allowStartIfComplete, preventRestart, etc.
• 🧙‍♂️ Work with relational databases and tools to read/write JSON format.
• 🔸 Cover advanced concepts like conditional step execution and end-to-end test coverage.
• 🔸 Build a comprehensive command line application that showcases your learning.

🏗️ Advanced Level: Sophisticated Features Unlocked

• Designed for individuals who are well-versed with Spring Batch in typical scenarios, this chapter delves into the more sophisticated features and functionalities of the framework. You'll explore multi-file and multi-line processing in plain text format, requiring custom reader implementation, and how to use @StepScope component to access JobParameters and ExecutionContext declaratively.
• 🔸 Transition to web-based applications through Spring Boot integration.
• 🔸 Manage complex scenarios with retries, skips, and parallel step executions.
• 🔸 Start the application via HTTP endpoints.

🚀 Expert Level: Scaling Batch Workloads

• The pinnacle of the course is designed for those proficient in Spring Batch, focusing on strategies to scale batch workloads effectively. You'll tackle the same business problem in four different ways: with single thread, with multiple threads, partitioned locally, and with distributed partitioning. This chapter is rich with visual technical design episodes that cover both the architecture and code-level nuances of the scalability tools provided by Spring Batch.
• 🔸 Master advanced strategies for scaling batch workloads.
• 🔸 Solve complex problems with local and distributed partitioning.
• 🔸 Gain insights into architectural design at a high level.

With this course, you'll not only understand the mechanics of Spring Batch but also learn how to apply these skills in real-world scenarios. Whether you're starting from scratch or looking to elevate your expertise, the Spring Batch Mastery Course is your gateway to becoming a proficient batch processing professional. 🚀💻
