Hands-On Swift 5 Microservices Development has been written for any Swift developers, either iOS, macOS, tvOS, watchOS, or iPadOS, who want to use the same language they have learned to love for server backends as well. If you also already know some server-side Swift, you might find this book interesting as it introduces how to write microservices. Knowing a little bit of Swift is required to read this book but you don't need to know it all; we will go over everything you need as long as you know basic Swift.

Overview of this book
The capabilities of the Swift programming language are extended to server-side development using popular frameworks such as Vapor. This enables Swift programmers to implement the microservices approach to design scalable and easy-to-maintain architecture for iOS, macOS, iPadOS, and watchOS applications.
This book is a complete guide to building microservices for iOS applications. You’ll start by examining Swift and Vapor as backend technologies and compare them to their alternatives. The book then covers the concept of microservices to help you get started with developing your first microservice. Throughout this book, you’ll work on a case study of writing an e-commerce backend as a microservice application. You’ll understand each microservice as it is broken down into details and written out as code throughout the book. You’ll also become familiar with various aspects of server-side development such as scalability, database options, and information flow for microservices that are unwrapped in the process. As you advance, you’ll get to grips with microservices testing and see how it is different from testing a monolith application. Along the way, you’ll explore tools such as Docker, Postman, and Amazon Web Services.
By the end of the book, you’ll be able to build a ready-to-deploy application that can be used as a base for future applications.
