Spring

If you’re an existing Java developer who wants to go full stack or pick up another frontend framework, this book is your concise introduction to React. In this three-part build-along, you’ll create a robust Spring Boot backend, a React frontend, and then deploy them together.

This new edition is updated to Spring Boot 3 and includes expanded content on security and testing. For the first time ever, it also covers React development with the in-demand TypeScript.

You’ll explore the elements that go into creating a REST API and testing, securing, and deploying your applications. You’ll learn about custom Hooks, third-party components, and MUI.

By the end of this book, you'll be able to build a full stack application using the latest tools and modern best practices.

What you will learn

• Make fast and RESTful web services powered by Spring Data REST
• Create and manage databases using ORM, JPA, Hibernate, and more
• Explore the use of unit tests and JWTs with Spring Security
• Employ React Hooks, props, states, and more to create your frontend
• Harness the Material UI component library to customize your frontend
• Use the fetch API, Axios, and React Query for networking
• Add CRUD functionality to your apps
• Deploy your apps using AWS and Docker

Who this book is for

This book is for Java developers who have basic familiarity with Spring Boot but don’t know where to start when it comes to building full stack applications. Basic knowledge of JavaScript and HTML will help you to follow along. You'll also find this book useful if you're a frontend developer with knowledge of JavaScript basics and looking to learn full stack development, or a full stack developer experienced in other technology stacks looking to learn a new one.

Master Java persistence using the industry-leading tools Spring Data and Hibernate.

In Java Persistence with Spring Data and Hibernate you will learn:

• Mapping persistent classes, value types, and inheritance
• Mapping collections and entity associations
• Processing transactions with Spring Data and Hibernate
• Creating fetch plans, strategies, and profiles
• Filtering data

Java Persistence with Spring Data and Hibernate teaches you the ins-and-outs of Java persistence with hands-on examples using Spring Data, JPA, and Hibernate. The book carefully analyzes the capabilities of the major Java persistence tools, and guides you through the most common use cases. By comparing and contrasting the alternatives, you’ll find it easy to choose the right tool choice for your applications. You’ll learn how to make and utilize mapping strategies, about the different approach to transactions for both Hibernate and Spring Data, and even how to efficiently test Java persistence applications. The practical techniques are demonstrated with both relational and non-relational databases.

This book will show you how to build Java-based microservices architecture using the popular Spring Boot framework by evolving a small monolith application to an event-driven architecture composed of several services. This third edition has been updated to cover Spring Boot 3, including its compatibility with Java 17 and Jakarta EE 10, and employs an incremental approach to teach the structure of microservices, test-driven development, and common patterns in distributed systems such as service discovery, load balancing, routing, centralized logs, per-environment configuration, and containerization.

Authors Moisés Macero and Tarun Telang get the ball rolling by introducing you to the fundamentals of microservices and Spring Boot before walking you through the development of a basic Spring Boot application. You’ll then see how to build a front end using React, and  learn how to use the data layer to read and write data from and to other systems via Spring Boot and its access to Spring Data and its available APIs. Putting together what you've learned thus far, you’ll begin to transform an application from a monolith to a microservice.

This pragmatic approach will enable you to better grasp the benefits of using this type of software architecture, instead of keeping you distracted with theoretical concepts. The emphasis is on what matters most, starting with the minimum viable product, while maintaining the ability to adapt and improve your application as needed. After completing this book, you will have the foundational knowledge necessary to build your own microservice-based applications using Spring Boot.

What You Will Learn

• Gain a thorough understanding of microservices architecture and how it differs from monolithic architectures.
• Discover the step-by-step process of breaking down a monolithic application into smaller, focused services
• Build microservices with Spring Boot 3, Spring Data, Spring Cloud, React.js, Docker, Cucumber, and more
• Develop Java-based microservices using the latest version of Spring Boot, compatible with Java 17 and Jakarta EE 10.
• Discover architecture patterns for distributed systems such as asynchronous processing, eventual consistency, resilience, scalability, and more
• Gain insight into event-driven communication patterns and understand how to design and build event-driven microservices
• Trace every request from beginning to end with Sleuth and centralized logging
• Deploy your microservices anywhere as Docker containers

Who This Book Is For
