Spring 5.0 Microservices - Second Edition

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 that focuses on Reactive Programming, you’ll be able to build modern, internet-scale Java applications in no time. The book starts off with guidelines to implement responsive microservices at scale. Next, you will understand how Spring Boot is used to deploy serverless autonomous services by removing the need to have a heavyweight application server. Later, you’ll learn how to go further by deploying your microservices to Docker and managing them with Mesos. By the end of the book, you will have gained more clarity on the implementation of microservices using Spring Framework and will be able to use them in internet-scale deployments through real-world examples.

Chapter 4. Applying Microservices Concepts

Microservices are good, but can also be an evil if they are not properly conceived. Wrong interpretations and design choices could lead to irrecoverable failures.

This chapter will examine the technical challenges around the practical implementations of microservices. It will also provide guidelines around critical design decisions for successful microservice developments. The solutions and patterns for a number of commonly raised concerns around microservices will also be examined.

In this chapter, you will learn about the following:

  • Trade-offs between different design choices
  • Patterns to be considered when developing microservices
  • General guidelines for designing scalable, first-class microservices
