Chapter 1, Demystifying Microservices, gives you an introduction to microservices. This chapter covers the background, evaluation, and fundamental concepts of microservices.
Chapter 2, Related Architecture Styles and Use Cases, covers the relationship with Service-Oriented Architecture, the concepts of cloud native and Twelve Factor applications, and explains some of the common use cases.
Chapter 3, Building Microservices with Spring Boot, introduces building REST and message-based microservices using the Spring Framework and how to wrap them with Spring Boot. In addition, we will also explore some core capabilities of Spring Boot.
Chapter 4, Applying Microservices Concepts, explains the practical aspects of microservices implementation by detailing the challenges that developers face with enterprise-grade microservices.
Chapter 5, Microservices Capability Model, introduces a capability model required to successfully manage a microservices ecosystem. This chapter also describes a maturity assessment model, which will be useful when adopting microservices at enterprise level.
Chapter 6, Microservices Evolution – A Case Study, takes you to a real-world case study of microservices evolution by introducing BrownField Airline. Using the case study, explains how to apply microservices concepts learned in the previous chapter.
Chapter 7, Scale Microservices with Spring Cloud Components, shows you how to scale previous examples using Spring Cloud stack capabilities. It details the architecture and different components of Spring Cloud and how they integrate together.
Chapter 8, Logging and Monitoring Microservices, covers the importance of logging and monitoring aspects when developing microservices. Here, we look at the details of some of the best practices when using microservices, such as centralized logging and monitoring capabilities using open source tools and how to integrate them with Spring projects.
Chapter 9, Containerizing Microservices with Docker, explains containerization concepts in the context of microservices. Using Mesos and Marathon, it demonstrates next-level implementation to replace the custom life cycle manager for large deployments.
Chapter 10, Scaling Dockerized Microservices with Mesos and Marathon, explains auto-provisioning and deployment of microservices. Here, we will also learn how to use Docker containers in the preceding example for large-scale deployments.
Chapter 11, Microservices Development Life Cycle, covers the process and practices of microservices development. The importance of DevOps and continuous delivery pipelines are also explained in this chapter.
