Practical Microservices Architectural Patterns

More about the book

Upgrade your distributed applications with microservices through this practical guide that connects core concepts and advanced patterns for building resilient, scalable, and high-performing microservices. It addresses both transitions from monolithic architectures and fresh starts with microservices. Fully updated for Spring Boot 3 and Spring Cloud, the guide covers modern capabilities such as reactive programming, enhanced observability, advanced security, and streamlined configuration management. Learn to tackle common architectural challenges in cloud-native development, including service discovery, inter-service communication, distributed transactions, and fault tolerance mechanisms like retries, timeouts, and circuit breakers. Implement real-world patterns using powerful frameworks like Axon for event sourcing and command handling, and Atomikos for managing distributed transactions with XA protocols. The content provides a hands-on introduction to building modern cloud-native applications, progressing to advanced topics like CQRS and event-driven architecture. Key learning outcomes include exploring the latest features in Spring Boot 3 and Spring Cloud 2024, applying proven patterns for microservices, designing event-driven architectures, enabling service discovery and resilience, handling distributed transactions, leveraging Axon Framework, securing services with OAuth2.0 and JWT, and learning best practices for test
