Hands-On High Performance with Spring 5

By: Mehta, Subhash Shah, 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.

AOP method profiling

Applications can have many business methods. Due to some implementation issues, some methods take time and we want to measure how much time is taken by those methods and we may want to analyze method arguments, as well. Spring AOP provides a way to perform method profiling without touching business methods. Let's see how.

PerformanceMonitorInterceptor

Let's see how to perform profiling or monitoring on our method execution. This is done with the help of a simple option provided by Spring AOP using the PerformanceMonitorInterceptor class.

As we have learned, Spring AOP allows the defining of crosscutting concerns in applications by intercepting the execution of one or more methods to add extra...
