🎬 Streaming API

Welcome to the Streaming API project! This API is designed to simulate a streaming application, leveraging the power of Spring Boot and Spring Data JPA. The application will connect to a SQL Server database to manage and serve data, making it a robust and scalable solution for streaming platforms.

🌟 Features

• Spring Boot for creating a robust and scalable backend.
• Spring Data JPA for seamless interaction with the SQL Server database.
• SQL Server as the relational database management system.
• RESTful API endpoints to manage streaming content, users, and other related entities.

🛠️ Technologies Used

• Java: The core programming language for building the API.
• Spring Boot: A powerful framework to develop production-ready applications.
• Spring Data JPA: Simplifies the data access layer and interaction with SQL Server.
• SQL Server: Database to store and manage application data.
• Maven: Dependency management and project build tool.

🚀 Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Java 17+ installed on your machine.
• Maven 3.6+ for building the project.
