Overview of this book

In a world of modern business models and digital products, the use of monolithic applications run classical infrastructure is just not feasible anymore. Many organizations have already begun resorting to the elasticity of the cloud as it offers them greater agility, availability, resilience, and portability. This video course is a one-stop solution for developers and architects, teaching them to understand the challenges faced in building cloud-native applications, using Java EE 8 and some additional well know open-source components and APIs. In combination, these APIs enable you to easily build hyperscale, elastic, loosely coupled, reliable, observable and secure microservices. Throughout this course, we address the different challenges you need to master to build truly cloud-native applications with Java EE. By the end of this course, you will be equipped with enough knowledge and practical experience to get your next cloud-native Java EE microservices up-and-running in no time, and with ease. All the code and supporting files for this course are available on GitHub at https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Cloud-native-Application-Development-with-Java-EE

Handling Secrets in Cloud-Native Java EE Microservices
Secrets are sensitive information and configuration properties and thus deserve special treatment. They should never be version controlled, and provided dynamically either via the ENV variable or file leveraging the Kubernetes secrets mechanism. - Store and provide sensitive information via .env files - Use Kubernetes secrets to store and provide secrets - Reference secrets via ENV variables or mounted secrets files
