π A Day of Learning at Contentstack β Velachery
Today, I had the incredible opportunity to attend a technical session focused on JVM-based development at Contentstack, Velachery. It was an engaging and knowledge-packed experience that introduced me to several modern backend and architecture concepts.
π What I Learned
1οΈβ£ JAMstack Architecture
I was introduced to the JAMstack model β which stands for JavaScript, APIs, and Markup. This modern architecture helps in building fast, secure, and scalable websites by decoupling the frontend from the backend. It emphasized:
- Using client-side JavaScript for dynamic functionality
- Leveraging APIs for backend operations
- Serving pre-built Markup files for performance
2οΈβ£ Data Pipeline Concepts
Understanding how data moves through a system is essential in backend development. I learned about:
- Data ingestion
- Processing stages
- Delivery and storage These concepts form the foundation of scalable and reliable data systems.
3οΈβ£ Threading in Java
I explored how multithreading works in backend systems β especially in handling multiple user requests and responses concurrently. Some key takeaways included:
- Thread lifecycle
- Concurrency in handling backend workloads
- Optimizing application performance with threads
4οΈβ£ Introduction to Spring AI
The most exciting part was learning about Spring AI β a new framework from the Spring ecosystem that allows integration of AI models into Java-based applications. It gave me insights into:
- Using AI in real-world backend services
- How AI can enhance application features and user experience
