Setting up Eureka Server
Eureka Server is a service registry that’s used in microservices architectures to register instances that other applications can discover. It’s a valuable service that allows services to locate and communicate with each other dynamically. This service registry performs health checks on the registered services’ instances, automatically removing the unhealthy or unresponsive ones. When a service needs to communicate with another service, Eureka Server provides the available instances, allowing load balancing.
In this recipe, you will learn how to create an application that implements Eureka Server.
Getting ready
This recipe doesn’t have any additional requirements.
How to do it...
In this recipe, we’ll create a new Eureka Server that we’ll reuse in the rest of the recipes. Let’s get started:
- First, we’ll create a new application for Eureka Server. For that, open https://start.spring...
