책소개

Java EE 8 brings with it a load of features, mainly targeting newer architectures such as microservices, modernized security APIs, and cloud deployments. This book will teach you to design and develop modern, business-oriented applications using Java EE 8. It shows how to structure systems and applications, and how design patterns and Domain Driven Design aspects are realized in the age of Java EE 8. You will learn about the concepts and principles behind Java EE applications, and how to effect communication, persistence, technical and cross-cutting concerns, and asynchronous behavior.
This book covers Continuous Delivery, DevOps, infrastructure-as-code, containers, container orchestration technologies, such as Docker and Kubernetes, and why and especially how Java EE fits into this world. It also covers the requirements behind containerized, zero-dependency applications and how modern Java EE application servers support these approaches. You will also learn about automated, fast, and reliable software tests, in different test levels, scopes, and test technologies. This book covers the prerequisites and challenges of distributed systems that lead to microservice, shared-nothing architectures. The challenges and solutions of consistency versus scalability will further lead us to event sourcing, event-driven architectures, and the CQRS principle. This book also includes the nuts and bolts of application performance as well as how to realize resilience, logging, monitoring and tracing in a modern enterprise world. Last but not least the demands of securing enterprise systems are covered.
By the end, you will understand the ins and outs of Java EE so that you can make critical design decisions that not only live up to, but also surpass your clients' expectations.

▶What this book covers
？ Chapter 1, Introduction, introduces Java EE enterprise applications and why Java EE is (still) relevant in modern systems.
？ Chapter 2, Designing and Structuring Java Enterprise Applications, shows how to design the structure of an enterprise application using examples, keeping design enterprise applications with business use cases in mind.
？ Chapter 3, Implementing Modern Java Enterprise Applications, covers how to implement modern Java EE applications and why that technology choice is still relevant today.
？ Chapter 4, Lightweight Java EE, teaches you how to realize lightweight Java EE applications with a small footprint and minimal third-party dependencies.
？ Chapter 5, Container and Cloud Environments with Java EE, explains how to leverage the benefits of containers and modern environments, how to integrate enterprise applications, and how this movement encourages productive development workflows.
？ Chapter 6, Application Development Workflows, covers the key points for fast development pipelines and high software quality, from Continuous Delivery to automated testing and DevOps.
？ Chapter 7, Testing, as the name suggests, covers the topic of testing, which helps enable you to ensure high quality in software development automated testing with reasonable coverage.
？ Chapter 8, Microservices and System Architecture, shows the key points of how to design systems after the project and company circumstances, how to construct applications and their interfaces, and when microservice architectures make sense.
？ Chapter 9, Monitoring, Performance, and Logging, covers why traditional logging is harmful, how to investigate performance issues, and how to monitor the business and technical aspects of an application.
？ Chapter 10, Security, covers how to realize and integrate security concerns in today's environments.
