MySQL learned from a Toss developer who processes over 500 billion pieces of financial data

This course goes beyond simple CRUD-level database usage to help you acquire PostgreSQL skills necessary for the AI era from a practical perspective. Based on AI development experience in Silicon Valley, you will learn step-by-step how to design and utilize JSON, indexes, transactions, and even pgvector in real-world services, while mastering methods to solve complex data structures and performance issues.

The biggest challenges in operating batch systems that process millions of records are performance degradation and the difficulty of recovery in the event of a failure. These issues cannot be solved with simple loops or poor design. Based on my experience of reliably processing large-scale data in real-world service environments, this course covers the structure and operating principles of Spring Batch and provides design methods to achieve both performance and stability. Moving beyond simple functional descriptions, this course will help you develop fundamental data processing problem-solving skills through batch architectures that can be applied immediately in practice.

Most developers are still stuck on Batch and CronJobs when it comes to data processing. However, in real-world production environments, data is generated continuously, and failing to process that flow immediately leads to latency, bottlenecks, and consistency issues. Having personally dealt with real-time recommendations, state synchronization, and event delay problems in high-traffic environments, I’ve often asked myself, "Is batch processing really the right approach for this?" This course begins with that very question. It explores how to use Apache Flink to perform computations the moment data flows, manage state securely, and produce accurate results based on Event Time—all from a practical perspective. Beyond simple theoretical explanations, you will experience how real-time stream processing systems are designed and operated through actual source code and architectures. For those who found real-time processing vague or were curious about the world beyond messaging, this course will provide a clear sense of direction.

You may have felt frustrated using Redis without being able to explain why it should be designed that way or why certain patterns emerged. Through my experience in both practical development and as an interviewer, I have treated Redis not just as a simple cache, but as a core component that determines service stability and scalability. This course is not about memorizing commands; instead, I will share my experiences on which structures to choose in real traffic environments and their trade-offs, helping you establish the criteria to explain these concepts confidently in both interviews and practical work.

This course is for developers who want to find fundamental solutions in environments where response times slow down as traffic increases, thread pools are quickly exhausted, and bottlenecks worsen with more external API calls. It helps you look at problems from the perspective of changing the architecture itself, rather than simply scaling out servers. Through this course, you will first understand the limitations of the traditional Spring MVC "Thread per Request" model. You will examine at the code level why throughput doesn't increase even when CPU resources are available, and exactly how blocking I/O occupies system resources. Next, you will learn the concepts and standard specifications of Reactive Streams and master how to handle data streams using Reactor's Mono and Flux. Beyond simple usage, you will learn through hands-on practice how data flows start, how they are consumed, and how throughput is controlled. In particular, you will directly implement design patterns that prevent OOM (Out of Memory) or overloads using Back Pressure. Additionally, you will understand the event loop-based processing structure of Spring WebFlux and conduct comparative exercises on how Non-Blocking I/O operates during actual request processing. By placing MVC and WebFlux side-by-side to verify their structural differences, you will also establish criteria for when to choose Reactive. This goes beyond simply "learning asynchrony." You will learn how to handle more requests with fewer threads, how to maintain a stable flow in environments with high external API dependencies, and develop the design intuition to secure throughput in high-concurrency environments.

To ensure easy understanding for non-majors and server development beginners, the course provides step-by-step explanations from RPC concepts to gRPC's internal operating principles, enabling you to develop practical skills that can be immediately applied to real services.

Kotlin mastery via virtual payment server course.

This course was created to solve a common problem many people face while preparing for developer jobs: "I studied CS and data structures, but I get tongue-tied during interviews." While conducting actual interviews at companies like Naver, Kakao, and Toss, I noticed that most candidates have memorized concepts but cannot explain why those concepts are necessary or how they are applied in real-world situations. Rather than simple rote memorization, this course teaches you how to understand the interviewer's intent and provide more persuasive answers to the same questions. Whether it's the OSI 7 layers, data structures, or coding tests, we focus on why you need to know them, when they are used, and how to speak about them to receive a positive evaluation in an interview. This course is for those who want to become developers who can explain what they understand in their own words, rather than just giving the same answers as everyone else.

This course is a master class that teaches Kotlin's 🌺 Coroutine, covering everything from theoretical foundations to practical application in a standard manner.

Each concept is explained with hands-on examples, making it easy for beginners to understand and immediately apply them. This is the best introductory and practical course for developers who want to build strong Coroutine skills for real-world use.

This course focuses on solving the problem of getting stuck in interviews and practical work due to a lack of understanding of why certain structures and configurations are necessary, rather than just teaching how to configure NGINX. Based on experience evaluating numerous candidates as an interviewer for companies like Naver, Kakao, and Toss, I explain how to describe and utilize NGINX from the perspectives of performance, scalability, and operations through hands-on practice. The core of this course is to help you develop a mindset capable of tracing traffic flow and troubleshooting problems, rather than just memorizing configuration values.

At some point in backend development, you start to have these concerns. It's that moment when services expand and traffic increases, and you begin to feel the limitations of simple REST communication and CRUD structures. I experienced these same issues in the field and went through much trial and error balancing performance and structural complexity. The solution I chose during that process was NATS. Its simple configuration based on a single binary, ultra-low latency performance in microseconds, and the fact that it provides essential features—from Pub/Sub to Queue Groups and JetStream—without being overkill made it a very practical choice for real-world service environments. This course is not just a list of NATS features. Based on the problems I faced in practice, I explain through code and workflows why I chose NATS in certain situations and how I designed the architecture. This course is designed to help everyone—from those new to messaging systems to backend developers preparing for employment and senior developers considering better architectures—understand distributed systems and grow to the next level.

This course explores microservice architecture and distributed environments not as a simple list of technologies, but from a 'design perspective' required in actual work and interviews. Starting from the differences between monolithic and MSA, it progressively covers incremental migration strategies, modular monoliths, clean architecture and hexagonal architecture, clearly explaining why each choice is necessary and the trade-offs involved. Through hands-on practice, you can directly verify the intent of the structure and learn about core issues inevitably encountered in distributed environments—such as data consistency, transactions, inter-service communication, and failure handling—through realistic scenarios. Based on actual questions and perspectives from Kakao interviewers, this course aims to go beyond simple knowledge acquisition and elevate your way of thinking about distributed systems to the next level.
