Preface

The philosophy of API development has been evolving over the years to serve the modern needs of enterprise architecture, and developers need to know how to adapt to these modern API design principles. Apps are now developed with APIs that enable easy integration of a cloud environment and distributed systems. In this Spring book, you will discover various kinds of production-ready API implementations with the REST API, along with exploring async using the reactive paradigm, gRPC, and GraphQL.

You'll design evolving REST-based APIs supported by HATEOAS and ETags and develop reactive async non-blocking APIs. Next, you'll focus on how to secure REST APIs using Spring Security and how the developed APIs are consumed by the UI of the app. You will continue with testing, deploying, logging, and monitoring your developed APIs. In the concluding chapters, you'll explore more about developing APIs using gRPC and GraphQL, as well as designing modern scalable architecture with microservices. You'll also get up and running with a sample e-shopping app that will equip you with practical implementation knowledge of modern APIs.

By the end of this Spring Framework book, you'll be able to develop, test, and deploy highly scalable, maintainable, and developer-friendly APIs that can help your customers to transform their business.
