Spring 5.0 Microservices - Second Edition

Overview of this book

The Spring Framework is an application framework and inversion of the control container for the Java platform. The framework’s core features can be used by any Java application, but there are extensions to build web applications on top of the Java EE platform. This book will help you implement the microservice architecture in Spring Framework, Spring Boot, and Spring Cloud. Written to the latest specifications of Spring that focuses on Reactive Programming, you’ll be able to build modern, internet-scale Java applications in no time. The book starts off with guidelines to implement responsive microservices at scale. Next, you will understand how Spring Boot is used to deploy serverless autonomous services by removing the need to have a heavyweight application server. Later, you’ll learn how to go further by deploying your microservices to Docker and managing them with Mesos. By the end of the book, you will have gained more clarity on the implementation of microservices using Spring Framework and will be able to use them in internet-scale deployments through real-world examples.

Entry points for adoption


When adopting microservices, organizations generally use one of the two entry points mentioned in the following diagram:

The first entry point is termed as the Green Field approach. In this approach, organizations will use microservice for developing new capabilities. There are a couple of use cases for Green Field development:

  • Development of computing services, such as IoTs, AI algorithms, Big Data processing, and more
  • New ground-up application developments

The second entry point is termed as the Brown Field approach. In this case, organizations will use microservices for monolithic migrations.
