Spring 5.0 Microservices - Second Edition

By: Rajesh R V

Overview of this book

The Spring Framework is an application framework and inversion of the control container for the Java platform. The framework’s core features can be used by any Java application, but there are extensions to build web applications on top of the Java EE platform. This book will help you implement the microservice architecture in Spring Framework, Spring Boot, and Spring Cloud. Written to the latest specifications of Spring that focuses on Reactive Programming, you’ll be able to build modern, internet-scale Java applications in no time. The book starts off with guidelines to implement responsive microservices at scale. Next, you will understand how Spring Boot is used to deploy serverless autonomous services by removing the need to have a heavyweight application server. Later, you’ll learn how to go further by deploying your microservices to Docker and managing them with Mesos. By the end of the book, you will have gained more clarity on the implementation of microservices using Spring Framework and will be able to use them in internet-scale deployments through real-world examples.

Microservices capability model


In the service-oriented world, there are reference architectures available, which can be used as a basis for SOA implementations. For example, a comprehensive SOA Reference Architecture is defined by The Open Group, which is available for public reference.

Note

The Open Group SOA Reference Architecture is available at http://www.opengroup.org/soa/source-book/soa_refarch/index.htm.

However, there is no standard or reference architecture for microservices. It is still an evolving space. Many of the architectures available publicly today are from tool vendors, and they seem to be inclined towards their own tools stack.

The microservices capability model defined in this chapter is based on design guidelines, common patterns, and best practice solutions for designing and developing microservices.

The following diagram depicts the microservices capability model, which will be used as a reference model for the rest of the chapters in this book:

The capability model is broadly...
