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.

Introducing RabbitMQ

RabbitMQ is AMQP-based and one of the most widely used lightweight, reliable, scalable, portable, and robust message brokers that is written in Erlang. The important reason behind the popularity of RabbitMQ is that it is easy to set up and fit for the cloud scale. RabbitMQ is open source and supported by most of the operating systems and platforms. The applications that use RabbitMQ can communicate with other systems via a platform neutral, wire-level protocol—the AMQP. Now, let's go through how to configure RabbitMQ.

Setting up the RabbitMQ server

Before developing a messaging system, we need to set up a message broker that will handle sending and receiving the messages. RabbitMQ is the AMQP...
