Book Description

Microservices are the next big thing in designing scalable, easy-to-maintain applications, making app development easier and providing great flexibility in utilizing various resources optimally.

This course is what you need to help you discover the world of microservices and enhance your knowledge and skillset at the same time. Broken up into 3 modules, you’ll learn about every aspect of the microservice development that you need to know about.

Starting off with the first module, you will understand the core concepts and frameworks of microservice architecture. You will then learn how to set up the development environment and configure it before implementing continuous integration to deploy your microservice architecture. You will learn to secure microservices and test them effectively using REST Java clients and other tools. Finally, you will build smaller, lighter, and faster services that can be implemented easily.

The second module will help you implement the microservice architecture in Spring Framework, Spring Boot, and Spring Cloud. With the latest specifications of Spring, you'll be able to build modern, Internet-scale Java applications in no time. You’ll delve into Spring Boot, Spring Cloud, Docker, Mesos, and Marathon, and understand how to deploy autonomous services without using heavy-weight application servers. By the end, you'll have a good grasp of Spring Framework and how to implement microservices using it.

In the last module of this course, you will learn about how to build robust and scalable microservices using Seneca and Node.js. Also, you will learn how to simplify your tasks by dividing them into smaller and simple services. This module will show you how to identify the areas where the microservices oriented architectures can tackle the most common problems in the software used by the big organization.

This Learning Path combines some of the best that Packt has to offer in one complete, curated package. It includes content from the following Packt products:

  • Mastering Microservices with Java, Sourabh Sharma
  • Spring Microservices, Rajesh RV
  • Developing Microservices with Node.js, David Gonzalez
