For experienced Java and Spring developers.

Spring Microservices in Action, Second Edition teaches you to build microservice-based applications using Java and Spring.

Summary

By dividing large applications into separate self-contained units, Microservices are a great step toward reducing complexity and increasing flexibility. Spring Microservices in Action, Second Edition teaches you how to build microservice-based applications using Java and the Spring platform. This second edition is fully updated for the latest version of Spring, with expanded coverage of API routing with Spring Cloud Gateway, logging with the ELK stack, metrics with Prometheus and Grafana, security with the Hashicorp Vault, and modern deployment practices with Kubernetes and Istio.

About the technology

Building and deploying microservices can be easy in Spring! Libraries like Spring Boot, Spring Cloud, and Spring Cloud Gateway reduce the boilerplate code in REST-based services. They provide an effective toolbox to get your microservices up and running on both public and private clouds.

About the book

Spring Microservices in Action, Second Edition teaches you to build microservice-based applications using Java and Spring. You’ll start by creating basic services, then move to efficient logging and monitoring. Learn to refactor Java applications with Spring’s intuitive tooling, and master API management with Spring Cloud Gateway. You’ll even deploy Spring Cloud applications with AWS and Kubernetes.
