API contract and request design
Build clearer request-response contracts, validation patterns, and versioning decisions.
Training Track 03
Backend APIs, Integration, and Service Design
Improve the way backend teams design APIs, structure services, manage integrations, and build reliability into the platforms that power products and operations.
API contracts
Service boundaries
Auth patterns
Observability
Program Overview
What this track covers
This track helps backend teams make sharper design decisions around service boundaries, APIs, reliability, and integration patterns while reducing long-term maintenance risk.
Service boundaries and domain flow
Clarify where logic belongs, how services interact, and how domains should evolve over time.
Integration and reliability patterns
Handle retries, events, dependency failures, and partner-system interactions more intentionally.
Security, observability, and operations
Improve authentication flows, service telemetry, and runtime visibility for production systems.
Business Outcomes
What teams should gain from this program
Cleaner service design
Teams improve clarity around domain boundaries, APIs, and cross-service responsibilities.
Better reliability and integration health
More intentional handling of failures, dependencies, and partner-system complexity.
Reduced modernization risk
Backlog decisions become easier because teams share stronger technical criteria and patterns.
