This course covers a range of service governance precepts and processes, including those that address service usage, monitoring, legal data audits, testing practices, as well as service analysis, design and programming. Also addressed are SLA versioning and service policies and systems/continuous engineering and agile delivery.

Key Outcomes:
Students will be able to know:

Service project delivery methodologies are explained, including top-down and agile delivery. Governance technology and task types are established, along with service vitality triggers and processes. The basics of governing services, microservices and service-oriented solutions are then covered, including models and frameworks for addressing lifecycle management and individual service governance issues.

Key Outcomes:
Students will be able to know:

As a continuation of course modules 12 and 13, this hands-on workshop allows attendees to apply the technologies, concepts, techniques and patterns previously covered in order to complete a set of lab exercises.
Participants are required to study a case study background and carry out a series of exercises to solve a number of inter-related problems, with the ultimate goal of applying technologies and design patterns to design their own service API solutions.

This course delves into a series of advanced service API design and management patterns to provide techniques for accommodating complex requirements, coupling concerns and various evolutionary and versioning challenges. Text-based and binary data serialization protocols are explored, along with a number of Web-capable RPC protocols, including gRPC, GraphQL and Falcor.

Key Outcomes:
Students will be able to know:

This course covers essential topics pertaining to modern-day service API design and management, including API roles, the API lifecycle, positive and negative API coupling types and fundamental API design and management patterns. Also
covered are API proxies, API gateways and fundamental API versioning.
