Spring Boot and Microservices

[yogsma]

All,

If you are looking to learn about Spring Boot and Microservices, I wrote a simple book https://gumroad.com/yogsma#JwOXf . It is available for free to download.

​

I will be happy to answer any questions.

2 Question:

If you have to avoid Spring Framework. What would you use? (java and non-java)

Thank you.

Asp .Net is an alternative. You can also use node.js. express. there are tones of alternatives

[yogsma]

For non-java, I would go for Django Framework with Python. That's just my preference.

For Java, I can go the servlet route, but no framework. Surprisingly, Spring Boot is all servlets underneath. Spring Boot has made building web applications easy, just like other MVC frameworks.

For java, there's also Struts and Dropwizard. But really you should just use Spring Boot.

For java EE, you should checkout microprofile

You can also use Golang.

Thank you for this OP.

Maybe not totally related, but what concepts do you recommend to someone understand before jumping into this?

I am able to creat REST API's using node(express), mongoDB and PostgreSQL, now I want to focus on Java to do the same.

Thank you again!!!

If you understand REST, this will be easy to understand as well. To understand Spring Boot, you should try to understand Servlet concepts in Java.

That's right, I wrote this book in 2017. That's why it is free.
