Building Microservices with Spring

Overview of this book

Getting Started with Spring Microservices begins with an overview of the Spring Framework 5.0, its design patterns, and its guidelines that enable you to implement responsive microservices at scale. You will learn how to use GoF patterns in application design. You will understand the dependency injection pattern, which is the main principle behind the decoupling process of the Spring Framework and makes it easier to manage your code. Then, you will learn how to use proxy patterns in aspect-oriented programming and remoting. Moving on, you will understand the JDBC template patterns and their use in abstracting database access. After understanding the basics, you will move on to more advanced topics, such as reactive streams and concurrency. Written to the latest specifications of Spring that focuses on Reactive Programming, the Learning Path teaches you how to build modern, internet-scale Java applications in no time. Next, you will understand how Spring Boot is used to deploying serverless autonomous services by removing the need to have a heavyweight application server. You’ll also explore ways to deploy your microservices to Docker and managing them with Mesos. By the end of this Learning Path, you will have the clarity and confidence for implementing microservices using Spring Framework. This Learning Path includes content from the following Packt products: • Spring 5 Microservices by Rajesh R V • Spring 5 Design Patterns by Dinesh Rajput

Summary


In this chapter, we learned about the challenges around logging and monitoring when dealing with internet-scale microservices.

We explored the various solutions for centralized logging and also learned how to implement a custom centralized logging using Elasticsearch, Logstash, and Kibana (ELK). In order to understand distributed tracing, we upgraded the BrownField microservices using the Spring Cloud Sleuth.

In the second half of this chapter, we went deeper into the capabilities required for microservices monitoring solutions and different approaches for monitoring. Subsequently, we examined a number of tools available for microservices monitoring.

The BrownField microservices were further enhanced with the Spring Cloud Hystrix and Turbine for monitoring latencies and failures in inter-service communications. The examples also demonstrated how to use the Circuit Breaker pattern to fall back to another service in case of failures.

Finally, we also touched upon the importance of Data...
