Overview of this book

Microservices helps in decomposing applications into small services and move away from a single monolithic artifact. It helps in building systems that are scalable, flexible, and high resilient. Spring Boot helps in building REST-oriented, production-grade microservices. This book is a quick learning guide on how to build, monitor, and deploy microservices with Spring Boot. You'll be first familiarized with Spring Boot before delving into building microservices. You will learn how to document your microservice with the help of Spring REST docs and Swagger documentation. You will then learn how to secure your microservice with Spring Security and OAuth2. You will deploy your app using a self-contained HTTP server and also learn to monitor a microservice with the help of Spring Boot actuator. This book is ideal for Java developers who knows the basics of Spring programming and want to build microservices with Spring Boot. This book is embedded with useful assessments that will help you revise the concepts you have learned in this book. This book is repurposed for this specific learning experience from material from Packt's Mastering Spring 5.0 by Ranga Rao Karanam.

Summary


Spring Boot makes developing Spring-based applications easy. It enables us to create production-ready applications very quickly.

In this lesson, we covered how to add features such as exception handling, caching, and internationalization to our application. We discussed the best practices of documenting REST services using Swagger. We looked at the basics of securing our microservice with Spring Security.

In the next lesson, we will shift our attention toward advanced features in Spring Boot. We will look at how to provide monitoring on top of our REST services, learn how to deploy the microservice to the Cloud, and understand how to become more productive when developing applications with Spring Boot.
