Take your networking skills to the next level by learning how high-performance network services are designed, built, and scaled. This advanced module focuses on application-layer protocols, concurrent server architectures, scalable APIs, real-time communication, and production-ready networking practices used in modern cloud and distributed systems.
Using C/C++, Rust, and Python, you'll develop robust networking applications while exploring performance optimisation, observability, security, and scalability.

By the end of this module, you will:
Design scalable application-layer network protocols
Build concurrent, high-performance servers
Understand asynchronous networking architectures
Develop HTTP and gRPC services
Implement real-time communication using WebSockets
Apply production-ready reliability and security practices
Benchmark and optimise networking performance
