What's inside

Four courses

Object-Oriented Design

(0 hours)
This course takes Java beginners to the next level by covering object-oriented analysis and design. You will discover how to create modular, flexible, and reusable software by applying object-oriented design principles and guidelines.

Design Patterns

(0 hours)
This course extends object-oriented analysis and design by incorporating design patterns to create interactive applications. Through a survey of established design patterns, you will gain a foundation for more complex software applications. Finally, you will identify problematic software designs by referencing a catalog of code smells.

Software Architecture

(0 hours)
The way that software components are arranged, and the interactions between them, is called architecture. This course introduces the most common architectures, their qualities, and tradeoffs. We will talk about how architectures are evaluated, what makes a good architecture, and how an architecture can be improved. We'll also talk about how the architecture touches on the process of software development.

Service-Oriented Architecture

(0 hours)
Based on architectural styles, review architectures for web applications. Explore Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) basics in Web Services (WS*) and Representational State Transfer (REST) architecture. Connect a Java-based Android application with Elasticsearch, a web service with a REST API, in the Capstone Project.
