Modern Java Frameworks for Building Microservices
Microservice architecture is a modern architectural approach that increases development and delivery agility by focusing on building modular services. The framework we use has a tremendous impact on how quickly and easily we can deliver servcies. New frameworks are emerging that embrace new approaches for helping us deliver microservices.
In this session, we will explore some modern Java frameworks for building microservices (aka micro frameworks). Example frameworks you may see include Dropwizard, Ratpack, Spark, Ninja, RestExpress, Play, Restlet, and RestX. We'll demonstrate each framework by using a programming kata to build the same service using several different frameworks. Optionally, bring your own laptop, clone the github repo, and you can build the services along with me. To do this, you must have Java 8+ and Gradle.
Zero fluff.
