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.

Summary


In this chapter, we learned how to scale Twelve-Factor Spring Boot microservices using the Spring Cloud project. Our learnings were applied on the BrownField Airline’s PSS microservice, which we developed in the previous chapter.

We explored the Spring Config Server for externalizing microservices configurations, and how to deploy the Config Server for high availability. We also learned Eureka for load balancing, dynamic service registration, and discovery. Implementation of an API Gateway was examined by implementing Zuul. Finally, we concluded with the reactive style integration of microservices using Spring Cloud Streams.

The BrownField Airline’s PSS microservices are now deployable for Internet scale. Other Spring Cloud components such as Hyterix, Sleuth, and others will be covered in the next chapter.
