What separates the traditional enterprise from the likes of Amazon, Netflix, and Etsy? Those companies have refined the art of cloud native development to maintain their competitive edge and stay well ahead of the competition. This practical guide shows Java/JVM developers how to build better software, faster, using Spring Boot, Spring Cloud, and Cloud Foundry. Many organizations have already waded into cloud computing, test-driven development, microservices, and continuous integration and delivery. Authors Josh Long and Kenny Bastani fully immerse you in the tools and methodologies that will help you transform your legacy application into one that is genuinely cloud native. In four sections, this book takes you through: The Basics: learn the motivations behind cloud native thinking; configure and test a Spring Boot application; and move your legacy application to the cloud Web Services: build HTTP and RESTful services with Spring; route requests in your distributed system; and build edge services closer to the data Data Integration: manage your data with Spring Data, and integrate distributed services with Spring’s support for event-driven, messaging-centric architectures Production: make your system observable; use service brokers to connect stateful services; and understand the big ideas behind continuous delivery

Highly available microservice-based web apps for Cloud with Java Key Features Take advantage of the simplicity of Spring to build a full-fledged application Let your applications run faster while generating smaller cloud service bills Integrate your application with various tools such as Docker and ElasticSearch and use specific tools in Azure and AWS Book Description Businesses today are evolving so rapidly that they are resorting to the elasticity of the cloud to provide a platform to build and deploy their highly scalable applications. This means developers now are faced with the challenge of building build applications that are native to the cloud. For this, they need to be aware of the environment, tools, and resources they’re coding against. If you’re a Java developer who wants to build secure, resilient, robust, and scalable applications that are targeted for cloud-based deployment, this is the book for you. It will be your one stop guide to building cloud-native applications in Java Spring that are hosted in On-prem or cloud providers - AWS and Azure The book begins by explaining the driving factors for cloud adoption and shows you how cloud deployment is different from regular application deployment on a standard data centre. You will learn about design patterns specific to applications running in the cloud and find out how you can build a microservice in Java Spring using REST APIs You will then take a deep dive into the lifecycle of building, testing, and deploying applications with maximum automation to reduce the deployment cycle time. Gradually, you will move on to configuring the AWS and Azure platforms and working with their APIs to deploy your application. Finally, you’ll take a look at API design concerns and their best practices. You’ll also learn how to migrate an existing monolithic application into distributed cloud native applications. By the end, you will understand how to build and monitor a scalable, resilient, and robust cloud native application that is always available and fault tolerant. What you will learn See the benefits of the cloud environment when it comes to variability, provisioning, and tooling support Understand the architecture patterns and considerations when developing on the cloud Find out how to perform cloud-native techniques/patterns for request routing, RESTful service creation, Event Sourcing, and more Create Docker containers for microservices and set up continuous integration using Jenkins Monitor and troubleshoot an application deployed in the cloud environment Explore tools such as Docker and Kubernetes for containerization and the ELK stack for log aggregation and visualization Use AWS and Azure specific tools to design, develop, deploy, and manage applications Migrate from monolithic architectures to a cloud native deployment Who this book is for Java developers who want to build secure, resilient, robust and scalable applications that are targeted for cloud based deployment, will find this book helpful. Some knowledge of Java, Spring, web programming and public cloud providers (AWS, Azure) should be sufficient to get you through the book.

Build robust and reliable Java applications that works on modern infrastructure, such as containers and cloud, using the new features in Quarkus 1.0 Key FeaturesBuild apps with faster boot time and low RSS memory using the latest Quarkus 1.0 featuresSeamlessly integrate imperative and reactive programming models to build modern Java applicationsDiscover effective solutions for running Java on serverless apps, microservices, containers, FaaS, and the cloudBook Description Quarkus is a new Kubernetes-native framework that allows Java developers to combine the power of containers, microservices, and cloud-native to build reliable applications. The book is a development guide that will teach you how to build Java-native applications using Quarkus and GraalVM. We start by learning about the basic concepts of a cloud-native application and its advantages over standard enterprise applications. Then we will quickly move on to application development, by installing the tooling required to build our first application on Quarkus. Next, we’ll learn how to create a container-native image of our application and execute it in a Platform-as-a-Service environment such as Minishift. Later, we will build a complete real-world application that will use REST and the Contexts and Dependency injection stack with a web frontend. We will also learn how to add database persistence to our application using PostgreSQL. We will learn how to work with various APIs available to Quarkus such as Camel, Eclipse MicroProfile, and Spring DI. Towards the end, we will learn advanced development techniques such as securing applications, application configuration, and working with non-blocking programming models using Vert.x. By the end of this book, you will be proficient with all the components of Quarkus and develop-blazing fast applications leveraging modern technology infrastructure. What you will learnBuild a native application using Quarkus and GraalVMSecure your applications using Elytron and the MicroProfile JWT extensionManage data persistence with Quarkus using PostgreSQLUse a non-blocking programming model with QuarkusLearn how to get Camel and Infinispan working in native modeDeploy an application in a Kubernetes-native environment using MinishiftDiscover Reactive Programming with Vert.xWho this book is for The book is for Java developers and software architects who are interested in learning a promising microservice architecture for building reliable and robust applications. Knowledge of Java, Spring Framework, and REST APIs is assumed.

While containers, microservices, and distributed systems dominate discussions in the tech world, the majority of applications in use today still run monolithic architectures that follow traditional development processes. This practical book helps developers examine long-established Java-based models and demonstrates how to bring these monolithic applications successfully into the future. Relying on their years of experience modernizing applications, authors Markus Eisele and Natale Vinto walk you through the steps necessary to update your organization's Java applications. You'll discover how to dismantle your monolithic application and move to an up-to-date software stack that works across cloud and on-premises installations. Learn cloud native application basics to understand what parts of your organization's Java-based applications and platforms need to migrate and modernize Understand how enterprise Java specifications can help you transition projects and teams Build a cloud native platform that supports effective development without falling into buzzword traps Find a starting point for your migration projects by identifying candidates and staging them through modernization steps Discover how to complement a traditional enterprise Java application with components on top of containers and Kubernetes
