Learn Microservices with Spring Boot: A Practical Approach to RESTful Services using RabbitMQ, Eureka, Ribbon, Zuul and Cucumber

by Moises Macero

Build a microservices architecture with Spring Boot, by evolving an application from a small monolith to an event-driven architecture composed of several services. This book follows an incremental approach to teach microservice structure, test-driven development, Eureka, Ribbon, Zuul, and end-to-end tests with Cucumber.Author Moises Macero follows a very pragmatic approach to explain the benefits of using this type of software architecture, instead of keeping you distracted with theoretical concepts. He covers some of the state-of-the-art techniques in computer programming, from a practical point of view. You’ll focus on what's important, starting with the minimum viable product but keeping the flexibility to evolve it.What You'll LearnBuild microservices with Spring BootUse event-driven architecture and messaging with RabbitMQCreate RESTful services with SpringMaster service discovery with Eureka and load balancing with RibbonRoute requests with Zuul as your API gatewayWrite end-to-end rests for an event-driven architecture using CucumberCarry out continuous integration and deploymentWho This Book Is ForThose with at least some prior experience with Java programming. Some prior exposure to Spring Boot recommended but not required.

3.5 stars actually. This book provides a nice transition into the Java ecosystem for developing uServices. Coming myself from C++, I have been able to follow a complete Java development of an application smoothly: it presents a real project and follows an agile approach with 'minimum value provided' increments , initially decomposing the problem into the classic 'MVC' pattern under the Spring framework with the corresponding unit test and finally, the deployment of the application dealing with uServices architectural features (messaging, service discovery, load balancing ...)

It is a good project but i Didn't like how the first part focuses on testing.

I first read this book when I want to read about micro-services. So far, it helped to understand some patterns and concepts of micro-services.

Structure of given multiplication project can be improved . The big picture of multiplication is not transferred in code . I am finding it hard to create big picture of project in mind .

Highly recommended

This is a good book. Although I skipped the UI, RabbitMQ, and testing parts I could follow well enough to enhance my knowledge and build more confidence with Spring. Microservices are the thing right now and if you don't understand them you lose. Go give this one a read!
