Programación en Java. Uso de Spring Framework: 2ª Edición (Spanish Edition) review

Java es un lenguaje de programación orientado a objetos desarrollado en la década de 90 por un equipo de programadores capitaneado por James Gosling, en la empresa Sun Microsystems. A diferencia de los lenguajes convencionales, que son compilados a código nativo, el lenguaje Java se compila a un bytecode que es ejecutado por una máquina virtual. El lenguaje de programación Java es el lenguaje estándar de la Plataforma Java, pero no su único lenguaje.

La Plataforma Java es el nombre del entorno computacional, o plataforma, creada por la empresa estadounidense Sun Microsystems y vendida a la empresa Oracle hace algunos años. La plataforma permite desarrollar aplicaciones utilizando cualquiera de los lenguajes creados para la plataforma Java, siendo el lenguaje estándar el que lleva su propio nombre: el Lenguaje Java. Una gran ventaja de la plataforma es que no está sujeta a un único sistema oerativo o hardware, ya que sus programas se pueden ejecutar a través de una máquina virtual que puede ser emulada en cualquier sistema que soporte el programación lenguaje C++.

Desde su lanzamiento, en mayo de 1995, la plataforma Java fue adoptada más rápidamente que cualquier otro lenguaje de programación en la historia de la computación. En el año 2004 Java alcanzó la cifra de 3 millones de desarrolladores en todo el mundo. Java continuó creciendo y hoy en día es una referencia en el mercado de desarrollo de software. Java se hizo popular por su uso en internet y hoy en día tiene su entorno de ejecución presente en navegadores, mainframes, sistemas operativo, dispostivos móviles, tarjetas inteligentes etc.

Spring es un framework que da soporte al desarrollo de aplicaciones empresariales en Java, surgió como una alternativa ligera a la compleja plataforma J2EE, ganando muchísima popularidad entre los programadores.

• Leverage Reactive Programming in Spring 5.0 to build modern cloud native applications
• Manage internet-scale microservices using Docker, Mesos, and Marathon
• Gain insights into the latest inclusion of Reactive Streams in Spring and make applications more resilient and scalable

In Detail

The Spring Framework is an application framework and inversion of the control container for the Java platform. The framework's core features can be used by any Java application, but there are extensions to build web applications on top of the Java EE platform.

This book will help you implement the microservice architecture in Spring Framework, Spring Boot, and Spring Cloud. Written to the latest specifications of Spring that focuses on Reactive Programming, you'll be able to build modern, internet-scale Java applications in no time. The book starts off with guidelines to implement responsive microservices at scale. Next, you will understand how Spring Boot is used to deploy serverless autonomous services by removing the need to have a heavyweight application server.

Later, you'll learn how to go further by deploying your microservices to Docker and managing them with Mesos. By the end of the book, you will have gained more clarity on the implementation of microservices using Spring Framework and will be able to use them in internet-scale deployments through real-world examples.

Style and approach

The book takes a step-by-step approach on developing microservices using Spring Framework, Spring Boot, and a set of Spring Cloud components that will help you scale your applications.

Building RESTful Web Services with Spring 5 - Second Edition: Leverage the power of Spring 5.0, Java SE 9, and Spring Boot 2.0 review

Find out how to implement the REST architecture to build resilient software in Java with the help of the Spring 5.0 framework.

Key Features

• Follow best practices and explore techniques such as clustering and caching to achieve a reactive, scalable web service,
• Leverage the Spring Framework to quickly implement RESTful endpoints,
• Learn to implement a client library for a RESTful web service using the Spring Framework along with the new front end framework.

Book Description

REST is an architectural style that tackles the challenges of building scalable web services. In today's connected world, APIs have taken a central role on the web. APIs provide the fabric through which systems interact, and REST has become synonymous with APIs.The depth, breadth, and ease of use of Spring makes it one of the most attractive frameworks in the Java ecosystem. Marrying the two technologies is therefore a very natural choice.This book takes you through the design of RESTful web services and leverages the Spring Framework to implement these services. Starting from the basics of the philosophy behind REST, you'll go through the steps of designing and implementing an enterprise-grade RESTful web service. Taking a practical approach, each chapter provides code samples that you can apply to your own circumstances.This second edition brings forth the power of the latest Spring 5.0 release, working with MVC built-in as well as the front end framework. It then goes beyond the use of Spring to explores approaches to tackle resilience, security, and scalability concerns. Improve performance of your applications with the new HTTP 2.0 standards. You'll learn techniques to deal with security in Spring and discover how to implement unit and integration test strategies.Finally, the book ends by walking you through building a Java client for your RESTful web service, along with some scaling techniques using the new Spring Reactive libraries.

What you will learn

• Deep dive into the principles behind REST
• Expose CRUD operations through RESTful endpoints with the Spring Framework
• Devise response formats and error handling strategies, offering a consistent and flexible structure to simplify integration for service consumers
• Follow the best approaches for dealing with a service's evolution while maintaining backward compatibility
• Understand techniques to secure web services
• Comply with the best ways to test RESTful web services, including tips for load testing
• Optimise and scale web services using techniques such as caching and clustering

Who This Book Is For

This book is intended for those who want to learn to build RESTful web services with the latest Spring 5.0 Framework. To make best use of the code samples included in the book, you should have a basic knowledge of the Java language. Previous experience with the Spring Framework would also help you get up and running quickly.
