This project is in progress. It aims to build a minimal, clean Spring Boot TODO REST API storing data in a file to benchmark and explore scaling performance from 1,000 to 100,000 requests per second (RPS).

✅ Build a simple TODO REST API using Spring Boot
✅ Follow best practices: controller, service, repository layers
🔜 Benchmark and analyze performance under increasing load
🔜 Explore optimizations:

• Thread pool and JVM tuning
• In-memory caching strategies
• Reactive programming with WebFlux
• Horizontal scaling with load balancers

• Java 21 (or 17)
• Spring Boot 3.5.3
• File-based storage with Jackson
• Lombok

✅ Setup basic project structure
🔄 Implementing core CRUD APIs

• Load testing with k6 and wrk
• Optimizing and documenting results
• Replace synchronous file I/O with caching or database for higher RPS
