Overview of this book

Do you want to build and deploy microservices but are unsure where to begin? Check out the fully updated 2025 edition of Microservices with Spring Boot and Spring Cloud. Drawing from Magnus’ decades of experience, you’ll start with simple microservices and progress to complex distributed applications, learning essential functionality and deploying microservices using Kubernetes and Istio along the way. This book covers Java 24, Spring Boot 3.5, and Spring Cloud 2025, featuring updated code examples and replacing deprecated APIs. You’ll get a clear understanding of Spring’s Ahead of Time (AOT) module, observability, distributed tracing, and Helm for Kubernetes packaging. The chapters show you how to use Docker Compose to run microservices with databases and messaging services and deploy microservices on Kubernetes with Istio. You’ll also explore persistence, resilience, reactive microservices, and API documentation with OpenAPI, as well as learn service discovery with Netflix Eureka, edge servers with Spring Cloud Gateway, and monitoring with Prometheus, Grafana, and the EFK stack. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to confidently build scalable microservices using Spring Boot and Spring Cloud.

Convention over configuration and fat JAR files

Spring Boot targets the fast development of production-ready Spring applications by being strongly opinionated about how to set up both core modules from the Spring Framework and third-party products, such as libraries that are used for logging or connecting to a database. Spring Boot does that by applying a number of conventions by default, minimizing the need for configuration. Whenever required, each convention can be overridden by writing some configuration, case by case. This design pattern is known as convention over configuration and minimizes the need for initial configuration.

Configuration, when required, is, in my opinion, written best using Java and annotations. The good old XML-based configuration files can still be used, although they are significantly smaller than before Spring Boot was introduced.

Added to the usage of convention over configuration, Spring Boot also favors a runtime model based on a standalone JAR file...
