Distributed Computing in Java 9

Overview of this book

Distributed computing is the concept with which a bigger computation process is accomplished by splitting it into multiple smaller logical activities and performed by diverse systems, resulting in maximized performance in lower infrastructure investment. This book will teach you how to improve the performance of traditional applications through the usage of parallelism and optimized resource utilization in Java 9. After a brief introduction to the fundamentals of distributed and parallel computing, the book moves on to explain different ways of communicating with remote systems/objects in a distributed architecture. You will learn about asynchronous messaging with enterprise integration and related patterns, and how to handle large amount of data using HPC and implement distributed computing for databases. Moving on, it explains how to deploy distributed applications on different cloud platforms and self-contained application development. You will also learn about big data technologies and understand how they contribute to distributed computing. The book concludes with the detailed coverage of testing, debugging, troubleshooting, and security aspects of distributed applications so the programs you build are robust, efficient, and secure.

Summary


Throughout this chapter, you learned about important distributed system security and its aspects of security. You also learned about security issues and concerns for distributed computing. The security implementation for enterprise systems with SSL handshakes and a two-way SSL implementation with an example for web services was also covered. We completed this chapter with a thorough understanding of the new features from Java 9 that support distributed system security.
