Building Microservices with Spring

Overview of this book

Getting Started with Spring Microservices begins with an overview of the Spring Framework 5.0, its design patterns, and its guidelines that enable you to implement responsive microservices at scale. You will learn how to use GoF patterns in application design. You will understand the dependency injection pattern, which is the main principle behind the decoupling process of the Spring Framework and makes it easier to manage your code. Then, you will learn how to use proxy patterns in aspect-oriented programming and remoting. Moving on, you will understand the JDBC template patterns and their use in abstracting database access. After understanding the basics, you will move on to more advanced topics, such as reactive streams and concurrency. Written to the latest specifications of Spring that focuses on Reactive Programming, the Learning Path teaches you how to build modern, internet-scale Java applications in no time. Next, you will understand how Spring Boot is used to deploying serverless autonomous services by removing the need to have a heavyweight application server. You’ll also explore ways to deploy your microservices to Docker and managing them with Mesos. By the end of this Learning Path, you will have the clarity and confidence for implementing microservices using Spring Framework. This Learning Path includes content from the following Packt products: • Spring 5 Microservices by Rajesh R V • Spring 5 Design Patterns by Dinesh Rajput

Chapter 10. Related Architecture Styles and Use Cases

Microservices are on top of the hype at this point. At the same time, there are noises around certain other architecture styles, for instance, serverless architecture. Which is good? Are they competing against each other? What are the appropriate scenarios and the best ways to leverage microservices? These are the obvious questions raised by many developers.

In this chapter, we will analyze various other architecture styles and establish the and relationships between microservices and other buzz words such as Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), Twelve-Factor Apps, serverless computing, Lambda architectures, DevOps, Cloud, Containers, and Reactive Microservices. Twelve-Factor Apps defines a set of software engineering principles to develop applications targeting cloud. We will also analyze typical use cases of microservices and review some of the popular frameworks available for the rapid development of microservices.
