Hi,

I am working as Java Microservices developer. Is there ny udemy course or YouTube video playlist that teaches the end to end development.

So i have been fortunate that i have managed to go through my career without the need for a degree. I was lucky enough to have been hired by one of the worlds top consulting firms, worked with a whole lot of big clients and travelled a lot. It's gotten to the point where I am not even asked about the lack of a degree on my resume. Personally though, it bothers me. I have a whole bunch of certifications in my industry…but just no formal degree. (cont'd)

I am currently working mostly in Data Analytics, but I want to transition into Data Engineering.
