Written by leading MicroProfile experts, this book provides you with best practices for building enterprise-grade cloud-native applications using MicroProfile 4.1 and running them on Open Liberty with Docker, Kubernetes, and Istio
Key FeaturesIn this cloud-native era, most applications are deployed in a cloud environment that is public, private, or a combination of both. To ensure that your application performs well in the cloud, you need to build an application that is cloud native. MicroProfile is one of the most popular frameworks for building cloud-native applications, and fits well with Kubernetes. As an open standard technology, MicroProfile helps improve application portability across all of MicroProfile's implementations.
Practical Cloud-Native Java Development with MicroProfile is a comprehensive guide that helps you explore the advanced features and use cases of a variety of Jakarta and MicroProfile specifications. You'll start by learning how to develop a real-world stock trader application, and then move on to enhancing the application and adding day-2 operation considerations. You'll gradually advance to packaging and deploying the application. The book demonstrates the complete process of development through to deployment and concludes by showing you how to monitor the application's performance in the cloud. By the end of this book, you will master MicroProfile's latest features and be able to build fast and efficient cloud-native applications.
What you will learnThis book is for Java application developers and architects looking to build efficient applications using an open standard framework that performs well in the cloud. DevOps engineers who want to understand how cloud-native applications work will also find this book useful. A basic understanding of Java, Docker, Kubernetes, and cloud is needed to get the most out of this book.

"This book provides a broad and deep look at the relevant topics
you need to consider as you and your organization ramp up cloud
adoption and tackle application portfolio modernization. The
authors of this book bring with them years and years of experience
from both the middleware definition and implementation side of the
business and from the application side, having worked with
countless clients to demonstrate the art of the possible and bring
new business systems to life. I know they have saved me several
times when clear precise technical answers were needed quickly.
Given the openness of the approach to defining and evolving
MicroProfile, there is also less risk of vendor lock-in, not to
mention a great environment for incubating innovation both in
specification and implementation. If you are like me and struggle
to consume abstract architectural pictures & conceptual guidance
that isn't backed by real code and told in the voice of someone who
has done it, you will enjoy reading this book. In this book, you
will find the necessary concepts for cloud architectures supported
by concrete examples. Please enjoy this book and all it has to
offer."
--Eric Herness, IBM Fellow and Vice-President, Cloud Engagement Hub
CTO
"This book covers quite a bit of ground with a natural progression
from a high-level introduction to developing with MicroProfile
platform specifications (and the Jakarta EE APIs required by
MicroProfile) to Day 2 operations, standalone specifications, and
the future of MicroProfile. [...]Being more recent, this book
covers some of the newer specifications like MicroProfile GraphQL
and MicroProfile LRA. [...]While not all of these specifications
are used in the context of Stock Trader, the specification coverage
is pretty complete. I definitely recommend this book, especially if
you are interested in combining the breadth of Jakarta EE APIs with
MicroProfile APIs."
--John Clingan, Eclipse MicroProfile Co-Founder and Committer at
