Description

Fundamentals of Backend Engineering published by Udemy Academy. Understand backend communication design patterns, protocols, implementations and proxies.

Backend engineering is an art. During my 18-year career working with and building back-end applications, I’ve noticed certain communication design patterns emerging. There are a handful of ways that clients interact with backend applications, although there may be more, I believe the patterns I discuss in this course are the most common. Examples of these patterns are request-response, publish-subscribe, short and long, and push. Based on these communication design patterns, engineers may use a number of protocols for concrete communication. While the main transport vehicles are limited to either TCP or UDP, thousands of industry-specific protocols have been built on top of these two to address specific problems and use cases. Examples of these high-level protocols include: HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2, HTTP/3, gRPC, WebRTC, and many others. Other transport protocols such as QUIC are built on top of UDP to lower HTTP/2 traffic at the transport level. Each protocol has its advantages and disadvantages and is tailored to specific use cases. In this course, I will discuss the most common protocols and provide examples and demos where appropriate.
