Master over 60 recipes to help you deliver complete, scalable, microservice-based solutions and see the improved business results immediatelyAbout This Book• Adopt microservices-based architecture and deploy it at scale• Build your complete microservice architecture using different recipes for different solutions• Identify specific tools for specific scenarios and deliver immediate business results, correlate use cases, and adopt them in your team and organizationWho This Book Is ForThis book is for developers, ops, and DevOps professionals who would like to put microservices to work and improve products, services, and operations. Those looking to build and deploy microservices will find this book useful, as well as managers and people at CXO level looking to adopt microservices in their organization. Prior knowledge of Java is expected. No prior knowledge of microservices is assumed.What You Will Learn• Build microservices using Spring Boot, Wildfly Swarm, Dropwizard, and SparkJava• Containerize your microservice using Docker• Deploy microservices using Mesos/Marathon and Kubernetes• Implement service discovery and load balancing using Zookeeper, Consul, and Nginx• Monitor microservices using Graphite and Grafana• Write stream programs with Kafka Streams and Spark• Aggregate and manage logs using Kafka• Get introduced to DC/OS, Docker Swarm, and YARNIn DetailThis book will help any team or organization understand, deploy, and manage microservices at scale. It is driven by a sample application, helping you gradually build a complete microservice-based ecosystem. Rather than just focusing on writing a microservice, this book addresses various other microservice-related solutions: deployments, clustering, load balancing, logging, streaming, and monitoring.The initial chapters offer insights into how web and enterprise apps can be migrated to scalable microservices. Moving on, you'll see how to Dockerize your application so that it is ready to be shipped and deployed. We will look at how to deploy microservices on Mesos and Marathon and will also deploy microservices on Kubernetes. Next, you will implement service discovery and load balancing for your microservices. We'll also show you how to build asynchronous streaming systems using Kafka Streams and Apache Spark.Finally, we wind up by aggregating your logs in Kafka, creating your own metrics, and monitoring the metrics for the microservice.Style and approachThis book follows a recipe-driven approach and shows you how to plug and play with all the various pieces, putting them together to build a complete scalable microservice ecosystem. You do not need to study the chapters in order, as you can directly refer to the content you need for your situation.

I would like to take a moment to thank everyone that has been a huge support during the course of writing this book. Firstly, thanks to Mr. Raghu Potini, who motivated me to write this book and has been supportive throughout the writing process. Without his support and motivation, this book would have not been possible. Secondly, I would like to thank Mr. Andrew Leasck, who has been my inspiration since the beginning of my career. When I started writing the book, I did not know much about the publishing process or the amount of team work it needs. While working with the Packt Publishing team, they made me realize that it requires enormous amount of team effort, coordination and patience. The Packt Publishing team made it look so simple, but behind the scenes, they put so much effort and thoughts into giving life to this book. Without them, this would have not been possible. Hats off to the Packt team members that helped me during this process. Everyone has a role model in life. My father has always been my role model and an inspiration. Thanks to my father, Mr. Murugesan, who would have been really proud about this book. Special thanks to my mother, Vijayarani, wife, Subamalar, and daughther, Sreesha, who have been very patient and supportive during the course of writing this book.

Preface

The goal of this book is to introduce you to some of the most popular and newest technologies and frameworks that will help you build and deploy microservices at scale.

If you are an open source fan like me, you would already know that you have to spend a lot of time in trying out these new frameworks and libraries in order to understand their potential and the exact problem that they are trying to solve. Of course, each framework would have been built for a specific purpose, and you will often end up in a situation where you don’t have a silver bullet for all your microservice concerns. In this book, you will learn some of the most commonly used ...
