Troubleshooting Backend Performance

Why take this course?
🌟 Course Title: Discovering Backend Bottlenecks: Unlocking Peak Performance
Course Headline: 🚀 Harness Chrome DevTools, MITM Proxy, and Wireshark to Pinpoint and Resolve Bottlenecks in Your Backend Stack
Unlock the Secrets of High-Performance Backends!
Are you ready to dive deep into the world of backend performance optimization? Performance tuning is a critical skill for any developer or engineer, but it's not just about optimizing your application logic. There's a myriad of factors that can influence the speed and efficiency of your backend stack – from networking concerns to security mechanisms, and everything in between.
Why You Should Enroll:
- Beyond Source Code: Learn how to analyze and improve performance without always needing direct access to the application source code.
- Black Box Testing: Master the art of 'black box testing' by understanding how your application behaves as an external user would experience it.
- Chrome DevTools: Use Chrome Developer Tools to inspect and understand all traffic originating from your web application.
- MITM Proxy: Set up a Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) proxy to intercept, log, and analyze HTTP(S) traffic when the app isn't directly accessible via a browser.
- Network Packet Analysis: Employ tcpdump and Wireshark to capture and decode low-level packets for applications that don't use HTTP protocols.
Course Highlights:
- Comprehensive Insights: Discover the hidden factors affecting your backend performance, from connection establishment to protocol serialization.
- Real-World Tools: Gain hands-on experience with essential tools like Chrome DevTools, MITM proxies, and network analysis tools like tcpdump and Wireshark.
- Networking Fundamentals: Enhance your understanding of networking principles that are critical for effective backend performance monitoring and optimization.
- No Code Necessary: Learn how to diagnose and troubleshoot issues without always needing the application's source code, saving valuable time and resources.
- For Experienced Professionals: This intermediate to advanced course is ideal for developers and engineers who have built backend and frontend applications and wish to refine their performance optimization skills further.
Who Should Take This Course: This course is tailored for developers and engineers with experience in building backend and frontend applications. It is recommended that students have a solid foundation in both networking concepts and backend fundamentals, which are also covered in my previous courses.
