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.

Maven build

Maven's pom.xml build file contains the description that would allow the REST sample service code to compile, build, and execute. It packages the executable code inside a JAR file. We can choose one of the following options to execute the packaged executable JAR file:

  • Running the Maven tool
  • Executing with the Java command

The following sections will cover them in detail.

Running the Maven build from IDE

All popular IDEs, such as Eclipse, Netbeans, and IntelliJ IDEA, support Java 11 and Spring. You can use any of the preferred IDEs having Java 11 support.

Here, we use the Maven executable to package the generated JAR file. The steps for this are as follows:

  1. Right-click on the pom.xml file for Eclipse/NetBeans...
