Hands-On High Performance with Spring 5

By: Chintan Mehta, Subhash Shah, Pritesh Shah, Prashant Goswami, Dinesh Radadiya

Overview of this book

While writing an application, performance is paramount. Performance tuning for real-world applications often involves activities geared toward detecting bottlenecks. The recent release of Spring 5.0 brings major advancements in the rich API provided by the Spring framework, which means developers need to master its tools and techniques to achieve high performance applications. Hands-On High Performance with Spring 5 begins with the Spring framework's core features, exploring the integration of different Spring projects. It proceeds to evaluate various Spring specifications to identify those adversely affecting performance. You will learn about bean wiring configurations, aspect-oriented programming, database interaction, and Hibernate to focus on the metrics that help identify performance bottlenecks. You will also look at application monitoring, performance optimization, JVM internals, and garbage collection optimization. Lastly, the book will show you how to leverage the microservice architecture to build a high performance and resilient application. By the end of the book, you will have gained an insight into various techniques and solutions to build and troubleshoot high performance Spring-based applications.

Summary

We started this chapter with a basic configuration of the ORM framework, Hibernate, using JPA and Spring Data. We focused on common ORM problems faced in production. In this chapter, we learned optimal solutions to the common problems faced while working on Hibernate for database operations and for achieving high performance. We learned useful tips for the best practices to follow when working on ORM-based frameworks to achieve high performance from the development stage, instead of resolving problems when facing them in the production system.

In line with optimization and high performance, the next chapter provides information on Spring messaging optimization. As you know, messaging framework enterprise applications connect multiple clients and provide reliability, asynchronous communications, and loose coupling. Frameworks are built to provide various benefits; however...
