Mastering Microservices with Java 9 - Second Edition

Overview of this book

Microservices are the next big thing in designing scalable, easy-to-maintain applications. They not only make app development easier, but also offer great flexibility to utilize various resources optimally. If you want to build an enterprise-ready implementation of the microservices architecture, then this is the book for you! Starting off by understanding the core concepts and framework, you will then focus on the high-level design of large software projects. You will gradually move on to setting up the development environment and configuring it before implementing continuous integration to deploy your microservice architecture. Using Spring security, you will secure microservices and test them effectively using REST Java clients and other tools like RxJava 2.0. We'll show you the best patterns, practices and common principles of microservice design and you'll learn to troubleshoot and debug the issues faced during development. We'll show you how to design and implement reactive microservices. Finally, we’ll show you how to migrate a monolithic application to microservices based application. By the end of the book, you will know how to build smaller, lighter, and faster services that can be implemented easily in a production environment.

Summary

In this chapter, we have learned how the domain-driven design model can be used in a microservice. After running the demo application, we can see how each microservice can be developed, deployed, and tested independently. You can create microservices using Spring Cloud very easily. We have also explored how one can use the Eureka registry and discovery component with Spring Cloud.

In the next chapter, we will learn to deploy microservices in containers such as Docker. We will also understand microservice testing using REST Java clients and other tools.
