Course Description

Based on an understanding of architectural styles, you will review architectures for web applications, then explore the basics of Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) in two approaches: Web Services (WS*) and Representational State Transfer (REST) architecture. In the Capstone Project you will connect a Java-based Android application with Elasticsearch, a web service with a REST application programmer interface (API).After completing this course, you will be able to: - Describe SOA (Service-Oriented Architecture) to structure web-based systems.- Explain WS* services (i.e., SOAP over HTTP, WSDL, UDDI, BPEL).- Apply REST architecture (i.e., JSON over HTTP, URI).- Identify REST design principles.- Create a system using REST interfaces.- Apply microservice architecture.

Time: 12h

It's better to name this course like Introduction to web services. The first two courses was useful for middle developers (and upper). It's just introduction for juniors. I think this course should not be included to "Software Design and Architecture". If consider this course as an introduction, it's better to remove a section of legacy UDDI and BPEL and replace by GraphQL and JSON-RPC.

Satisfied overall, but my suggestion is you should improve the final project. Make the students able to see the GET / POST / PUT / DELETE method when calling the remote server, more details for what is learned in this course.

good course, however I think it has too much focus on very old technologies (CORBA, SOAP), and not enough focus on more recent technologies (REST).
