🚀 Feign Client In Spring Boot | MicroServices Communication Made Easy ✅

In this video, we learn how to use Feign Client in Spring Boot to simplify communication between microservices 🚀

Instead of writing manual HTTP calls using RestClient or RestTemplate, Feign allows us to call other services just like a normal Java method.

We will build a real example where an Order Service communicates with an Inventory Service using Feign Client and understand how it works internally at a high level.

📚 What You’ll Learn

• What is Feign Client
• Why Feign is needed in microservices
• How to enable Feign in Spring Boot
• Creating Feign Client interface
• Calling another microservice using Feign
• High-level internal working of Feign
• Feign vs RestClient
