In any new application development, you are often required to implement particular scenarios or services, such as cross-cutting concerns. You have to spend a significant amount of time implementing common cross-cutting concerns in the development of a new application. Let's have a look at the following cross-cutting concerns:

This will also deal with further external configurations, such as credentials, and the network locations of external services, including databases or message brokers.
- Implement logging: Logging is also required for all services of a new application development. You have to configure a logging framework, such as Java, Log4j, Logj42...
