Spring 5.0 Cookbook

Overview of this book

The Spring framework has been the go-to framework for Java developers for quite some time. It enhances modularity, provides more readable code, and enables the developer to focus on developing the application while the underlying framework takes care of transaction APIs, remote APIs, JMX APIs, and JMS APIs. The upcoming version of the Spring Framework has a lot to offer, above and beyond the platform upgrade to Java 9, and this book will show you all you need to know to overcome common to advanced problems you might face. Each recipe will showcase some old and new issues and solutions, right from configuring Spring 5.0 container to testing its components. Most importantly, the book will highlight concurrent processes, asynchronous MVC and reactive programming using Reactor Core APIs. Aside from the core components, this book will also include integration of third-party technologies that are mostly needed in building enterprise applications. By the end of the book, the reader will not only be well versed with the essential concepts of Spring, but will also have mastered its latest features in a solution-oriented manner.

Preface

Configuring the Eureka server for service registration


Another version of building microservices is through Spring Cloud Finchley modules that support creating a service registry of microservices with the Spring 5's reactive platform. This recipe will showcase how to build a cloud-based environment that can host instances or nodes of service instances in one server machine.

Getting started

Using the latest Spring Cloud modules for Spring Boot 2.0.0.M2, let us create a Eureka server that will be responsible for hosting the Department, Employee, and Login microservices to form one cloud of services that can only be distinguished through their HTTP ports.

How to do it...

Let us create our first Eureka cloud-based services through these steps:

  1. First, create a Spring Boot application that will be deployed and run as a Eureka server and nothing else. Name the project ch10-eureka-hrs. It should contain only the core starter POM dependencies such as the spring-boot-starter-webflux since this will just...
