JCON2018 - Building Microservices with Java EE 8 and MicroProfile

Vortrag auf der JCON2018 von Mario-Leander Reimer

With Java EE 8 finally released and the latest additions to MicroProfile it is about time we have a closer look at how to develop modern and lightweight microservices with the latests API improvements.

This session is a comprehensive guide showing how to develop state-of-the-art microservices with the latest Java EE 8 APIs. We will start by giving an overview of Java EE 8 and the latest API additions and improvements. Then we will implement, build and package our first working Java EE 8 microservice. We will then dive into the details of implementing synchronous RESTful web services, and learn about the specifics of data binding and content marshalling using the JSON-B and JSON-P APIs. We will see how to leverage the power of using the asynchronous APIs on the server as well as the client-side, and how Server-Sent-Events (SSE) can be used for push communication. Finally we will cover some advanced topics such as validation, security, resiliency, health checks and diagnosability.
