Mastering Microservices with Java - Third Edition

By: Sourabh Sharma

Overview of this book

Microservices are key to designing scalable, easy-to-maintain applications. This latest edition of Mastering Microservices with Java, works on Java 11. It covers a wide range of exciting new developments in the world of microservices, including microservices patterns, interprocess communication with gRPC, and service orchestration. This book will help you understand how to implement microservice-based systems from scratch. You'll start off by understanding the core concepts and framework, before focusing on the high-level design of large software projects. You'll then use Spring Security to secure microservices and test them effectively using REST Java clients and other tools. You will also gain experience of using the Netflix OSS suite, comprising the API Gateway, service discovery and registration, and Circuit Breaker. Additionally, you'll be introduced to the best patterns, practices, and common principles of microservice design that will help you to understand how to troubleshoot and debug the issues faced during development. By the end of this book, you'll have learned how to build smaller, lighter, and faster services that can be implemented easily in a production environment.

Approaches and keys to successful migration

Software modernization has been done for many years. A lot of work is done to perform successful software modernization. You will find it useful to go through all of the best practices and principles for successful software modernization (migration). In this chapter, we will talk specifically about software modernization of the microservice architecture.

Incremental migration

You should transform monolithic applications to microservices in an incremental manner. You should not start the full-fledged migration of the whole code all together. It entangles the risk-reward ratio and increases the probability of failure. It also increases the probability of transition time and, hence...
