Overview of this book

The Spring Framework is an application framework and inversion of the control container for the Java platform. The framework's core features can be used by any Java application, but there are extensions to build web applications on top of the Java EE platform. This book will help you implement the microservice architecture in Spring Framework, Spring Boot, and Spring Cloud. Written to the latest specifications of Spring, you'll be able to build modern, Internet-scale Java applications in no time. We would start off with the guidelines to implement responsive microservices at scale. We will then deep dive into Spring Boot, Spring Cloud, Docker, Mesos, and Marathon. Next you will understand how Spring Boot is used to deploy autonomous services, server-less by removing the need to have a heavy-weight application server. Later you will learn how to go further by deploying your microservices to Docker and manage it with Mesos. By the end of the book, you'll will gain more clarity on how to implement microservices using Spring Framework and use them in Internet-scale deployments through real-world examples.

Understanding the PSS application


BrownField Airline is one of the fastest growing low-cost, regional airlines, flying directly to more than 100 destinations from its hub. As a start-up airline, BrownField Airline started its operations with few destinations and few aircrafts. BrownField developed its home-grown PSS application to handle their passenger sales and services.

Business process view

This use case is considerably simplified for discussion purposes. The process view in the following diagram shows BrownField Airline's end-to-end passenger services operations covered by the current PSS solution:

The current solution is automating certain customer-facing functions as well as certain internally facing functions. There are two internally facing functions, Pre-flight and Post-flight. Pre-flight functions include the planning phase, used for preparing flight schedules, plans, aircrafts, and so on. Post-flight functions are used by the back office for revenue management, accounting, and so...
