Android Studio (Server End)

[ADIIS007]

I am designing a critical tracking app in Android studios ("Ik flutter is a better choice") but I went with android studio as I wanted to Improve my java ... as well as a Struggle that popped me in the job was

1)server designing I want a server suggestion where around 2k users and over 40 providers (providers write data and users read data from db) I want the spects to design a server 

2)How do u even make a server end without a PHP based volly Engine which makes me mad seeing the PHP stuff I want the server end with java any Idea ... It would be a great help to support the 2ed point
**Note 2ed one is mandatory

Instead of Android studio use Eclipse.

For how you do it? Run MariaDB and lookup how you interface it. Likely there is premade connector you can use. 

I see but I have designed half of the user and admin end code integrated maps and firebase for a temporary solution I need a server now to manage my demands can u just send any Marine DB and Look up study material (In the form of Video Expected) to make a good join or a + to my project

Android studio is for android development. For other uses you're better off with regular IntelliJ or Eclipse.

In most cases I'd say it's better to use a VPS for that kind of load.

 

It kind of sounds like you shouldn't be doing this by yourself...? Is this for your job? Because in that case your employer should just hire someone with backend experience.

If you're used to how Android Studio works, I'd recommend to go with IntelliJ. This is what Android Studio is based on. If you install the Android plugins into IntelliJ, you can even use it for both "regular" Java development and Android development.

 

For server development, you could have a look at Spring Boot. It's a Java framework for server development. They have a fair amount of tutorials, as well as Initializr, which can set up a basic project with the desired dependencies for you.

 

For a basic server, you should be able to do with a VPS, running some Linux distribution with Java and e.g. nginx as reverse-proxy. The reverse proxy is used to accept the HTTP(S) connection coming in from the outside world and forwards it (internally, as HTTP) to your Java application. This way you application doesn't have to deal with SSL, certificates etc. Leave that to a web server designed for this kind of stuff. To get a (free) SSL certificate, use Let's Encrypt, with Certbot to automatically keep the up-to-date.
