Overview of this book

The Spring framework has been the go-to framework for Java developers for quite some time. It enhances modularity, provides more readable code, and enables the developer to focus on developing the application while the underlying framework takes care of transaction APIs, remote APIs, JMX APIs, and JMS APIs. The upcoming version of the Spring Framework has a lot to offer, above and beyond the platform upgrade to Java 9, and this book will show you all you need to know to overcome common to advanced problems you might face. Each recipe will showcase some old and new issues and solutions, right from configuring Spring 5.0 container to testing its components. Most importantly, the book will highlight concurrent processes, asynchronous MVC and reactive programming using Reactor Core APIs. Aside from the core components, this book will also include integration of third-party technologies that are mostly needed in building enterprise applications. By the end of the book, the reader will not only be well versed with the essential concepts of Spring, but will also have mastered its latest features in a solution-oriented manner.

Preface

Chapter 12. Other Spring 5 Features

From the installation and configuration of HTTP/2 down to Spring 5 microservices using Spring Boot 2.0 development, this book has listed a lot of old modules and showed that Spring 5 still supports them through some successful recipes. Likewise, half of the chapters also dropped some how-tos on the new set of foundation classes and interfaces needed to build asynchronous and reactive web solutions.

This book will not be complete without these features, that may or may not be familiar to some but are within the realms of the Spring 5 platform. These features may belong to the Spring MVC and Spring WebFlux modules but can be useful in general to solve some future problems involving Spring 5 web development.

In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:

  • Using Hibernate 5 object-relational mapping
  • Applying Hazelcast distributed caching
  • Building client-server communications with WebSocket
  • Implementing Reactive WebSocket communication
  • Implementing asynchronous...
