RESTful Microservices Using Node.js and Express Specialization, Backend refers to the server side of development. Here, the primary focus is on how a website works. Node.js is considered efficient for the development of backend applications as it brings event-driven programming and enables development of fast and efficient web servers in JavaScript. Developers can create scalable servers by using a simplified model of event-driven programming that uses call-backs to signal completion of a task. In this project, you will develop backend solutions for the given problem statements using Node.js and Express. You will build RESTful Microservices using the skills acquired from courses on JavaScript, Node.js and Express.js. The course requires you to follow the design principles and the best practices used for developing solutions to create products that meet the industry-standards.
