Build, Dockerize & Deploy a Spring Boot REST API on Azure
In this video, we build a Spring Boot REST API from scratch, containerize it using Docker, and deploy it to Microsoft Azure.
Instead of focusing only on theory, this is a practical, end-to-end walkthrough showing how a simple backend service moves from local development to the cloud.
What you’ll learn:
• Creating a minimal Spring Boot API
• Dockerizing the application
• Pushing the image to a container registry
• Deploying and hosting it on Azure
• Verifying the live endpoint
This is part of my journey to become a stronger backend engineer by learning and building in public — slowly and consistently.
