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 2. Overview of GOF Design Patterns - Core Design Patterns

In this chapter, you'll be given an overview of GOF Design Patterns, including some best practices for making an application design. You'll also get an overview of common problem--solving with design patterns.

I will explain the design patterns that are commonly used by the Spring Framework for better design and architecture. We are all in a global world, which means that if we have services in the market, they can be accessed across the Globe. Simply put, now is the age of the distributed computing system. So first, what is a distributed system? It's an application that is divided into smaller parts that run simultaneously on different computers and the smaller parts communicate over the network, generally using protocols. These smaller parts are called tiers. So if we want to create a distributed application, n-tier architecture is a better choice for that type of application. But developing an n-tier distributed application...
