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.

What is Spring Cloud?


Add a link to Netflix OSS. The Spring Cloud project is an umbrella project from the Spring team, which implements a set of common patterns required by distributed systems as a set of easy-to-use Java Spring libraries. Despite its name, Spring Cloud by itself is not a cloud solution. Rather, it provides a number of capabilities, which are essential when developing applications targeting cloud deployments that adhere to the Twelve-Factor Application principles. By using Spring Cloud, developers just need to focus on building business capabilities using Spring Boot, and leverage the distributed, fault-tolerant, and self-healing capabilities available out-of-the-box from Spring Cloud.

The Spring Cloud solutions are agnostic to the deployment environment and can be developed and deployed on a desktop PC or in an elastic cloud. The cloud-ready solutions, which are developed using Spring Cloud, are also agnostic, and portable across many cloud providers, such as Cloud Foundry...
