In today's digital age, financial institutions are constantly seeking ways to provide innovative and convenient banking solutions to their customers. One such solution is the development of Data-Driven Savings Accounts, which leverage advanced technologies to offer personalized savings options. This project aims to create a simple RESTful API using the Spring Framework, Spring Boot, and MongoDB to support Data-Driven Savings Accounts.


Project Objectives:

  1. API Development: Develop a RESTful API that allows users to create, manage, and access their Data-Driven Savings Accounts.

  2. Data Storage: Utilize MongoDB, a NoSQL cloud database, to store and manage account data efficiently and at scale.

  3. Spring Framework Integration: Implement the Spring Framework to handle application configuration, dependency injection.

  4. Spring Boot: Use Spring Boot to simplify the application setup and development process, providing a production-ready environment.

  5. Spring MVC: Implement the Model-View-Controller architectural pattern to ensure separation of concerns and facilitate a scalable and maintainable code-base.

  6. Object/Relational Mapping Facility: Utilize Spring Data MongoDB to seamlessly map Java objects to MongoDB documents, simplifying data access and manipulation.

  7. JPA-based Repositories: Implement JPA-based repositories to define data access methods and reduce boilerplate code.

  8. ORM Framework: Incorporate an Object-Relational Mapping (ORM) framework to manage the object-to-document mapping and database interactions efficiently.

  9. Repository Pattern: Implement the Repository pattern to provide a consistent and intuitive data access layer.

  10. Service Layer Pattern: Apply the Service layer pattern to encapsulate business logic, ensuring separation of concerns and promoting maintainability.

  11. Exception Handling: Implement robust exception handling to provide meaningful error messages and improve the overall API usability.

  12. Auto-generation of Swagger Documentation: Use Swagger to auto-generate comprehensive API documentation, making it easier for developers to understand and interact with the API.

  13. Data Transfer Objects (DTOs): Create Data Transfer Objects (DTOs) to define a clear contract between the client and server, ensuring efficient and secure data transfer.

  14. Project Lombok: Utilize Project Lombok to reduce boilerplate code and improve code readability, enhancing development productivity.

  15. ModelMapper: is a Java library that simplifies the mapping between two different Java bean classes. It's commonly used in Spring Boot applications to automate the conversion between DTOs (Data Transfer Objects) and entity objects. This helps reduce boilerplate code and simplifies the process of transferring data between layers of your application.

  16. Spring Security: OAuth2.0: is a widely used authentication and authorization framework that allows secure access to resources without revealing user credentials. OAuth2 can be used to enable user authentication in your Spring Boot application. Instead of managing user credentials and authentication logic in your application, you can delegate the authentication process to an external identity provider (IdP) like Google, Facebook, or GitHub.

Expected Outcomes:

Building a that empowers financial institutions to offer Data-Driven Savings Accounts to their customers. The API will be well-documented, easy to use, and capable of handling a high volume of transactions while ensuring data integrity and security.


By leveraging the power of Spring Framework, Spring Boot, MongoDB, and other specified technologies, you can build high-quality, scalable, and secure RESTful API to provide modern, data-driven savings account solutions in the digital banking landscape.
