Overview of this book

Have you often wondered what is the best JBoss product to solve a specific problem? Do you want to get started with a specific JBoss product and know how to integrate different JBoss products in your IT Systems? Then this is the book for you. Through hands-on examples from the business world, this guide presents details on the major products and how you can build your own Enterprise services around the JBoss ecosystem. Starting with an introduction to the JBoss ecosystem, you will gradually move on to developing and deploying clustered application on JBoss Application Server, and setting up high availability using undertow or HA proxy loadbalancers. As you are moving to a micro service archicture, you will be taught how to package existing Java EE applications as micro service using Swarm or create your new micro services from scratch by coupling most popular Java EE frameworks like JPA, CDI with Undertow handlers. Next, you will install and configure JBoss Data grid in development and production environments, develop cache based applications and aggregate various data source in JBoss data virtualization. You will learn to build, deploy, and monitor integration scenarios using JBoss Fuse and run both producers/consumers applications relying on JBoss AMQ. Finally, you will learn to develop and run business workflows and make better decisions in your applications using Drools and Jboss BPM Suite Platform.

Summary

Undertow is a lightweight and powerful web server written in Java, uses non-blocking IO, and also, users can quickly set up fast applications. Using the Undertow Builder API, users can create custom applications that integrate perfectly with core Java and open source technologies. In the current chapter, we covered Undertow architecture and the API through practical samples; we also saw how to create and deploy a microservice application with Undertow, CDI and JPA. Users can take advantage of the Undertow features from the WildFly application server. An Undertow subsystem can be set up to act as static or dynamic load balancer. Undertow perfectly supports the mod_cluster and HTTP2 protocols. Undertow can be a good candidate to start a microservice journey, but for the existing JEE applications, migration to a microprofile can be facilitated by the WildFly-Swarm project...
