Spring 5 Design Patterns

By: Dinesh Rajput

Overview of this book

Design patterns help speed up the development process by offering well tested and proven solutions to common problems. These patterns coupled with the Spring framework offer tremendous improvements in the development process. The book begins with an overview of Spring Framework 5.0 and design patterns. You will understand the Dependency Injection pattern, which is the main principle behind the decoupling process that Spring performs, thus making it easier to manage your code. You will learn how GoF patterns can be used in Application Design. You will then learn to use Proxy patterns in Aspect Oriented Programming and remoting. Moving on, you will understand the JDBC template patterns and their use in abstracting database access. Then, you will be introduced to MVC patterns to build Reactive web applications. Finally, you will move on to more advanced topics such as Reactive streams and Concurrency. At the end of this book, you will be well equipped to develop efficient enterprise applications using Spring 5 with common design patterns

Chapter 11. Implementing Reactive Design Patterns

In this chapter, we will explore one of the most important features of the Spring 5 Framework, which is reactive pattern programming. The Spring 5 Framework introduced this new feature with the Spring web reactive module. We will discuss this module in this chapter. Before that, let's have a look at reactive patterns. What is the reactive pattern, and why is it growing more popular nowadays? I will start my discussion on reactive pattern with the following statement made by Satya Nadella, CEO, Microsoft Corporation:

Every business out there now is a software company, is a digital company.

The topics we will cover here are as follows:

  • Why reactive pattern?
  • The reactive pattern principles
  • Blocking calls
  • Non-blocking calls
  • Back-pressure
  • Implementing the reactive pattern using the Spring Framework
  • The Spring web reactive module
