Practical Microservices

By: Umesh Ram Sharma

Overview of this book

<p>A microservice architecture helps you build your application as a suite of different services. This approach has been widely adopted as it helps to easily scale up your application with reduced dependencies. This way if a part of your application is corrupted, it can be fixed easily thereby eliminating the possibility of completely shutting down your software. This book will teach you how to leverage Java to build scalable microservices. You will learn the fundamentals of this architecture and how to efficiently implement it practically.</p> <p>We start off with a brief introduction to the microservice architecture and how it fares with the other architectures. The book dives deep into essential microservice components and how to set up seamless communication between two microservice end points. You will create an effective data model and learn different ways to test and deploy a microservices. You will also learn the best way to migrate your software from a monolith to a microservice architecture.</p> <p>Finishing off with monitoring, scaling and troubleshooting, this book will set a solid foundation for you to start implementing microservices.</p>

Preface

Sample project (credit risk engine)


During the course of this book, we will evolve a credit risk engine. It will not be a basis of many complicated aspects taken into account for creating algorithms of risk analysis. Rather it will be a very simple approach on 2-3 rules that will be simple to accept or reject for risk analysis. The focus of this application is not on how risk analysis is done, rather it is more focused on the factors such as how microservices should be designed, secured, communicate with each other, and so on.

While developing this kind of project, our development environment will include Spring Boot, and shipping microservices will be with Docker.
