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 about the new dynamic web application development.
It has changed completely over the years. The web application frontend is completely developed in pure HTML and JavaScript instead of using any server-side technologies such as JSP, servlets, ASP, and so on. UI application development with JavaScript now has its own development environments such as npm, Bower, and so on. We have explored the AngularJS framework to develop our web application. It made things easier by providing built-in features and support for Bootstrap and the $http service that deals with the AJAX calls.

I hope you have grasped the UI development overview and the way modern applications are developed and integrated with server-side microservices. In the next chapter, we will learn the best practices and common principals of microservice design. The chapter will provide...
