A hands-on guide to creating, monitoring, and tuning a high performance Spring web applicationAbout This BookUnderstand common performance pitfalls and improve your application's performanceBuild and deploy strategies for complex applications using the microservice architectureUnderstand internals of JVM - the core of all Java Runtime EnvironmentsWho This Book Is ForIf you're a Spring developer who'd like to build high performance applications and have more control over your application's performance in production and development, this book is for you. Some familiarity with Java, Maven, and Eclipse is necessary.What You Will LearnMaster programming best practices and performance improvement with bean wiringAnalyze the performance of various AOP implementationsExplore database interactions with Spring to optimize design and configurationSolve Hibernate performance issues and trapsLeverage multithreading and concurrent programming to improve application performanceGain a solid foundation in JVM performance tuning using various toolsLearn the key concepts of the microservice architecture and how to monitor themPerform Spring Boot performance tuning, monitoring, and health checksIn DetailWhile writing an application, performance is paramount. Performance tuning for real-world applications often involves activities geared toward detecting bottlenecks. The recent release of Spring 5.0 brings major advancements in the rich API provided by the Spring framework, which means developers need to master its tools and techniques to achieve high performance applications.Hands-On High Performance with Spring 5 begins with the Spring framework's core features, exploring the integration of different Spring projects. It proceeds to evaluate various Spring specifications to identify those adversely affecting performance. You will learn about bean wiring configurations, aspect-oriented programming, database interaction, and Hibernate to focus on the metrics that help identify performance bottlenecks. You will also look at application monitoring, performance optimization, JVM internals, and garbage collection optimization. Lastly, the book will show you how to leverage the microservice architecture to build a high performance and resilient application.By the end of the book, you will have gained an insight into various techniques and solutions to build and troubleshoot high performance Spring-based applications.Style and approachThis book takes a step-by-step approach with focused examples to teach you how to increase application performance.
