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 6. Improving Application Performance Using Caching Patterns

In previous chapters, we have seen how Spring works in the backend to access data for the application. We also saw how the Spring JDBC Module provides the JdbcTemplate helper class for database access. Spring provides support for integration with ORM solutions such as Hibernate, JPA, JDO, and so on, and manages transactions across application. Now, in this chapter, we will see how Spring provides caching support to improve application performance.

Do you ever face a volley of questions from your wife when you return home very late in the night from your office? Yes, I know it is very irritating to answer so many questions when you are tired and exhausted. It is even more irritating when you're asked the same questions over and over again..

Some questions can be answered with a Yes or No, but for some questions, you have to explain in detail. Consider what will happen if you are asked another lengthy question again after some...
